School Education Career

working group education

We, the SEC working group, "School Education Career", have set ourselves the following tasks and goals:

     

  • to maintain contacts with schools ( see offer to schools )
  • to support GDCh activities such as student days and the high school graduate award through school partnerships. As part of the school partnerships, we offer lectures that are easy to understand. The topics and speakers can be researched on the Internet. We have been awarded MINT ambassadors for this activity, and the MINT Zukunft schaffen initiative offers our list of topics under " Offers for schools ". We are aiming for a collaboration with the Darmstadt-based educational service provider two4science.
  • To motivate and advise students – especially those in upper secondary school – to choose a scientific and technical degree course
  • to actively and encouragingly accompany scientific and technical learning processes through specialist lectures
  • to offer subject-related further training and continuing education topics to teacher training centres
  • To facilitate contacts between teachers and scientists in universities and industry
  • to work intensively with the GDCh Division " chemical education " ( CHEMKON 2013, 2, 91 )
  • To involve senior citizens in selected areas of education and vocational training at universities, schools and extracurricular educational institutions
  • To recruit senior citizens as "sponsors" for kindergartens and to provide help with experiments in kindergartens
  • to cultivate common interests and activities with the other SEC working groups
  • to create a forum for discussions on current scientific developments
  • To establish contact with groups external to the GDCh such as the Association of the Chemical Industry ( VCI ), the Federal Employers' Association in the Chemical Industry ( BAVC ) and the German Association for the Promotion of Mathematical and Scientific Education ( MNU ).

School partnership

Numerous senior citizens put their knowledge at the service of science lessons. They offer lectures at schools that are well received. more

School laboratories

In Germany there are numerous school laboratories in which children can get to know chemistry outside of school. The Wikipedia article "School Laboratory " gives details and many further links. The school laboratory atlas on the Internet provides an overview.
