This year's theme "iM INTernet - School in a digital world" addresses not only the opportunities and possibilities of digital teaching and learning, but also the technical and social challenges of digitization. For example, the rapidly increasing range and use of digital media is leading to an ever greater demand for energy. Energy consumption, in turn, is a major contributor to climate-damaging carbon dioxide emissions and thus to dangerous global warming. In order to objectify discussions on this in the classroom, Prof. Martin Ziegler, head of the Micro- and Nanoelectronic Systems Group at TU Ilmenau, will present his innovative climate-friendly research work at the interdisciplinary kick-off event. With no less than 57 impulses, the program of events offers a broad spectrum of current topics related to a modern teaching culture for all subjects of the mathematical-scientific task field in all types of schools in Thuringia.
With the conference, the Thuringian Institute for Teacher Training, Curriculum Development and Media, together with the TU Ilmenau and with the support of the Association for the Promotion of STEM Education, would also like to contribute to making students more aware of the exciting developments in the fields of mathematics, computer science, natural sciences and technology through suitable didactic-methodical approaches. The TU Ilmenau itself is hosting five lectures, workshops and guided tours, thus making a significant contribution to the exchange between schools and science.
