During the summer holidays and the coming school year, the Open Roberta Coding Hub Ilmenau will again offer various activities for children and young people. There is a holiday camp as well as topic-specific workshops of varying duration, in which children can get creative in small groups of up to ten participants, discover new things and try things out. In the process, they come into contact with young scientists, with whom they experiment together and set out on the trail of exciting phenomena. For example, they learn how to program small robots or vehicles and immerse themselves in the world of computer science in a playful way.
In the coming school year, children and young people can also register in advance to get to know the Schülerforschungszentrum Ilmenau individually and be guided through their own project ideas, the "Jugend forscht" project or presentations and seminar papers in the natural sciences or technical fields.
And another hot tip for the cool autumn holidays: Fraunhofer IDMT and TU Ilmenau are hosting the Fraunhofer Talent School on October 29 and 30, 2021. After a year of corona compulsory break, talented and technically interested students from 9th to 13th grade from all over germany will have the chance to gain insights into the world of game development and bring robots to life in two online workshops. They will be accompanied by researchers. To participate, young people must apply via the website: www.idmt.fraunhofer.de/fts2021.
All offers as well as information on registration can be found at www.tu-ilmenau.de/schueler-forschen. Registration for the summer camp from August 8 to 15 is handled by the Youth Welfare Office of the Ilm district.
