Overview
Development of project days
The interesting and informative project days in our school lab are in constant development and evaluation by scientific work. In most cases the projects originate from bachelor or master theses of commited students. Elaborated project days are then tested by student groups, and adjusted if necessary in order to optimate learning conditions and achieve fascinating and informative designs. In this way projects fulfil scientific standards and are oriented at current research findings.
General course of action in our school lab
There are no hard and fast rules for a visit in our school lab. Some processes turned out to be apparently sensible though. At the start there is always a short introduction and safety instruction in our laboratories. After that pupils get the opportunity to explore physical contents in small research teams and find out about the fascinating appeal of research. Depending on age and skills of the pupils, breaks can be integrated in the process. They can be used for a lunch break in the canteen of Potsdam University, for instance.
