8        <h2>Museum paedagogics and education</h2>
9       
10        <p>Technikum29 is not only a computer museum showing exponats of running computers. Since some years, we also
11        develop paedagogic concepts for pupils (i.e. kids and youth between 10-18 years). We offer these courses
12        in German only, so this English speaking pages shall merely give you an idea what kind of outreach work is
13        done in technikum29. It can suit as an invitation for paedagogic concepts in adjacent countries, thought.
14       
15        <p>As an table of contents, this is an outline of our activities with kids:

31        <p>When school classes come visiting our museum, we typically offer one of the two tours in the two main
32        museum topics which we call <b>Computer history</b> or <b>The rise of communication technology</b>. We never
33        offer both courses after each other for a single class, purely as a matter of time and concentration for
34        the audience. Instead, we decide in advice with the particular teachers.
35       
36        <p>We offer courses in two intensity levels. Either classes can participate in only a single tour (ca.
37        90 minutes). Instead, they can also extend their visit up to three hours and participate in an <em>experimental
38        workshop</em>. This allows pupils to actually work with the historic devices, solve problems and riddles.
39       
40        <p>In our experience, these kind of school classes are mostly interested:
41       
42        <ul>
43                <li>Extension courses in physics, math, engineering or adjacent topics at high/secondary level school (German gymnasiale Oberstufe, the last school form before Abitur).
44                <li>Computer science classes of all age
45                <li>Working groups, students in project weeks and similar of all age (voluntary courses for pupils offered at schools)
46                <li>Groups from vocational schools or younger students from universities
47                <li>Pupils from primary schools
48        </ul>
49       
50        <p>For all of these groups we prepared dedicated tours and have very good feedback.

60<p>This is some (anonymous) feedback from advanced students of the high school which visited technikum29 and attended a workshop:

64I liked this tour very much. It was so helpful we could ask all our questions well before we looked at the individual computers. I never expected to see them working as if nothing happened to them in terms of age! We could even operate them! -- Student A

68Very nice exhibition and informative tour. It's interesting to see how these old computers were working. Actually I would have been happy to have even more time for the workshops.  -- Student B
69<hr><p class="small">

71
72All in all a very interesting tour. I think everybody who is at least in particular interested in technology should be inspired by at least one of these old giants. This doesn't even have to be these large truck-like super computers but can even be a smallish but astonishing mechanical computer with their hand gears and gear wheels.  -- Student C

76I enjoyed the tour very much. Every single computer which was shown is worth of being included in the tour. Every single computer was impressive in it's own way. The workshop also included interesting tasks, for instance the ASCII art. However, in my opinion, the time for doing the workshop was too short.  -- Student D

80This was a very interesting exhibition with quite interesting exhibits. I think for us younger ones it's very important to learn something not only about sociopolitical history but also about technical history, especially when all the old exhibits are still fully working! I also enjoyed the guided tour which was fun and entertaining. The subsqeuent workshop  was also a great fun and very instructive. I can well imagine to come back to the museum to take part at another tour with another thematic focus.  -- Student E

192<h3 id="electronic">Electronic workshops for youths</h3>
193<p>We also offer the complete opposite to museum tours. Instead of getting pupils in touch with
194the historical device, we offer completely different workshops on modern technology well inside
195the museum. That is, we currently offer two workshops:
196
197<ul>
198<li>The <a href="/en/robotics.php">LEGO robotics workshop</a>. It's especially dedicated
199    to the youngest of our visitors and enables them to build and program robots made by
200    the LEGO Mindstorms company.
201<li>The <a href="/en/physical-computing.php">Physical computing workshop</a>, alias
202    <em>The Arduino lab</em>: This is an advanced course for youths to teach them basic
203    electronics, microcontroller programming and all that with a connection to sensors
204    and all that.
205</ul>
206
207<h3 id="birthday-events">Birthday events for kids and youths</h3>
208<p>As we do so many with children, this is even another kind of events we frequently host:
209Children can celebrate their birthday with all their friends at our location. First, they
210participate a short guided tour which is especially appropriate to their age. Afer a short
211break, the kids experiment with so interesting experiments that it's always hard to find an
212end for the party. This is so different to a typical birthday party.
