language of the event

The possibilities of popularising science in teaching are almost unlimited. We can use many different methods to help us bring scientific discoveries to our students engagingly. One of these is aᅠcomprehensive teaching method known as inquiry-based learning. The workshop offered here will help to unravel these questions:

  • How to prepare a learning objective and set the intensity of the teaching?
  • What teaching methods and didactic aids to choose?
  • How to evaluate the performance of students?
  • How to motivate male and female students to become scientists themselves?

We will seek, examine, and discuss answers to these questions together.
