Media package Experimento
With Experimento, the Siemens Stiftung has developed an international concept for teachers and educators, which puts into practice the principle of discovery-based learning. Through experiments, children and young people engage independently with natural phenomena and learn to grasp technical and scientific interrelations. Experimento encompasses a diverse, curriculum-oriented selection of experiments on the subjects of energy, the environment, and healthcare for age groups 4-7 (Experimento | 4+), 8-12 (Experimento | 8+) and 10-18 (Experimento | 10+).
