Of course elementary schools should cater to kids\u2019 thirst for knowledge, but often they are unable to do so sufficiently owing to a lack of technical and teaching resources in the STEM subjects. This is where the \u201cYoung Scientists\u201d project comes in. Its aim is for schoolchildren to meet scientists in person. Third and fourth-graders join the project for three days and are given an experimental introduction to computing, physics or biochemistry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Three modules are now available for elementary schools. The \u201cSmall particles\u201d module focuses on atomic physics, the \u201cDNA and heredity\u201d module focuses on biochemistry and genetics, and the newest module, called \u201cDigital world,\u201d is all about computers, programming and Artificial Intelligence. \u201cYes, these topics are quite complex, but they have been prepared especially for children,\u201d stresses Annika L\u00f6ffler-Djahani, a project leader in science, technology and vocational training at the Polytechnic Foundation. \u201cAll the modules that have been developed contain theoretical and experimental parts. It\u2019s important that the schoolchildren can tackle the questions actively through play.\u201d L\u00f6ffler is absolutely delighted by the project days held so far. For instance, she was very impressed with the ideas for communicating the topic of DNA. \u201cThere\u2019s a dressing-up game that shows which characteristics are inherited in humans. We use a red wig, a clown\u2019s red nose and a tiger\u2019s tail to explain to the children which characteristics reside on strands of DNA and are inherited. Another experiment consists of collecting DNA from inside the mouth on a cotton bud and making it visible simply by using a solution containing salts, sodium chloride and a bit of washing soda (sodium carbonate). That can make them really curious and they get very interested.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignleft size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"650\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/aktuelles.uni-frankfurt.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/24_beitragsbild_grundschulkids_3.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-81348\" style=\"width:469px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aktuelles.uni-frankfurt.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/24_beitragsbild_grundschulkids_3.jpg 650w, https:\/\/aktuelles.uni-frankfurt.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/24_beitragsbild_grundschulkids_3-300x208.jpg 300w, https:\/\/aktuelles.uni-frankfurt.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/24_beitragsbild_grundschulkids_3-500x346.jpg 500w, https:\/\/aktuelles.uni-frankfurt.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/24_beitragsbild_grundschulkids_3-18x12.jpg 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Really exciting: sitting in a genuine university auditorium<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The mentors are all volunteers \u2013 undergraduate and doctorate students in science and technology. \u201cAs a rule, we find the mentors through our foundation\u2019s extensive network. We ask our Main Campus scholars if any of them are interested in working on this project. Generally they\u2019re science students, but sometimes we also get students from the humanities. After all, students of other subjects can also gain a good understanding of the subject matter and pedagogical methods.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is unusual how the mentors introduce themselves in advance of the project days. They write a letter to the class with an introduction to the topic. \u201cThat goes down really well; the children reply with their own letters containing a huge range of questions for the young researchers, which are then taken up during the project days.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u201cI want to be a scientist too, when I grow up\u201d<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Joshua K\u00f6nig, a doctoral student working with Prof. Henner B\u00fcsching at the Institute for Nuclear Physics, has already been involved with \u201cYoung Scientists \u2013 Small particles\u201d for seven years, and now heads the university\u2019s work on the module. The first school visit, according to K\u00f6nig, consists of a theoretical look at the subject matter, which is no less exciting. \u201cEach time it\u2019s nice to see how fascinated and amazed the children are when they learn that everything around them is made up of atoms.\u201d On the second visit he and the children build a particle accelerator together out of very simple, everyday objects: a garden hose, an air pump, balls and putty. \u201cWith the aid of the model we have built, the schoolchildren themselves can experiment and turn the classroom into a lab,\u201d K\u00f6nig says. The kids are then really excited when they get to visit Goethe University\u2019s Riedberg science campus on the third day. K\u00f6nig emphasizes that it\u2019s fascinating to see how much the children remember from class: \u201cThey remember not only that atoms are the building blocks of matter but also how small they are, and sometimes they also remember that there are even smaller particles, like quarks.\u201d Joshua K\u00f6nig loves it when one of the children says something like, \u201cI want to be a scientist too, when I grow up.\u201d He says, \u201cThat really shows that this is a wonderful and unique experience for the children.\u201d But he also stresses that both parties in the project benefit, and the students also find it an enriching experience. \u201cWe\u2019re not only pleased to give the schoolkids an insight into \u2018the world of minute particles\u2019 \u2013 we\u2019re also delighted to have the chance to expand our personal skills in scientific communication.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignright size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"650\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/aktuelles.uni-frankfurt.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/24_beitragsbild_grundschulkids_2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-81347\" style=\"width:469px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aktuelles.uni-frankfurt.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/24_beitragsbild_grundschulkids_2.jpg 650w, https:\/\/aktuelles.uni-frankfurt.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/24_beitragsbild_grundschulkids_2-300x208.jpg 300w, https:\/\/aktuelles.uni-frankfurt.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/24_beitragsbild_grundschulkids_2-500x346.jpg 500w, https:\/\/aktuelles.uni-frankfurt.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/24_beitragsbild_grundschulkids_2-18x12.jpg 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">What is inside a computer?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Bastian Stock is a mentor for the \u201cDigital world\u201d module. He\u2019s studying Business Information Systems at the Frankfurt University of Applied Sciences, and in the \u201cYoung Scientists\u201d program he shows the kids the basics of computer science and Artificial Intelligence. \u201cThe children learned what a computer is through hands-on activities \u2013 we took a PC apart and identified the hardware components. The second day deepened their understanding through playful programming exercises with micro:bits, which are mini-controllers fitted with various sensors and inputs, e.g. buttons, LEDs, motion sensors and midi-loudspeakers, and which can be controlled in fun ways with programs created especially for the purpose.\u201d Stock also sees his participation in the project as an extremely enriching personal experience, and says: \u201cIt was an opportunity to pass on my knowledge, and to learn a lot myself and to discover the world anew through the eyes of the children. Interacting with the young researchers has shown me how important it is to promote an understanding of technology at an early age and to inspire the next generation.\u201d Stock also reports that the teachers were delighted and very supportive; they had the highest praise for the program and are keen for it to be continued.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Children discover the
