SUMMARY:Wildlife Detective: Revealing the Invisible Wildlife Around You
DESCRIPTION:As part of the activity “Wildlife Detective: Revealing the Invisible Wildlife Around You\,” pupils and teachers will be introduced to innovative approaches to monitoring biodiversity using modern genetic methods. These methods enable the understanding and investigation of numerous animal characteristics (what they feed on\, the environment they live in\, whether their populations in nature are stable\, the extent of their resistance to diseases\, how to identify overall biodiversity in a single reaction\, etc.). Pupils and teachers will also learn the basics of field research\, namely how to obtain appropriate genetic samples from the environment (environmental DNA) or from animals (e.g. collecting hair\, droppings\, and other animal traces)\, which make it possible to obtain a wide range of data important for the conservation\, management\, and understanding of animal characteristics. Participants will also take part in so-called eDNA bingo\, which was developed within the larger international project Biodiversity Genomics Europe. The goal of the interactive game will be to identify invisible organisms based on DNA sequences that we will “find” in our samples.

SUMMARY:What Is My Body Capable Of?
DESCRIPTION:The workshop will consist of three different movement challenges and a few myths about our body. \n\nSitting in a circle: each pupil sits on another pupil’s knees in such a way that they form a circle. If the pupils arrange themselves appropriately\, they will be able to sit on each other’s knees while at the same time supporting the person in front of them. \nA thinking game with the number of legs and arms on the ground. For example\, if we have a group of 10 pupils\, the instruction is that there must be 10 hands and 10 feet on the ground. The pupils arrange themselves in a way that meets the instructions. The number of legs and arms can then be changed freely. \nRelay with a ball: the group is divided into two teams. The teams line up. Various ball-passing games follow\, for example passing the ball between the legs and back over the head. \nMyths: Can you lick your elbow with your tongue? Can you lick your nose with your tongue? When can I overcome a heavier load? When I perform an exercise using both arms/legs (with both arms or legs at the same time)\, or if I add together the load I can overcome with my left arm/leg and my right arm/leg?

SUMMARY:Let’s Enjoy Science by the Spoonful
DESCRIPTION:Children will be introduced\, in an age-appropriate way\, to groups of protein\, fat\, and carbohydrate foods\, as well as micronutrients and their main dietary sources. They will learn about the general importance of these nutrients for health\, especially for children’s well-being and performance (“What is good for strong muscles/strong bones/fighting a runny nose/good brain thinking?” and similar). \nWe will demonstrate the preparation of a balanced meal\, which they will be able to taste. They will try identifying and recognizing basic tastes and smells. Within these activities\, we will dispel myths about nutrition (for example: perceiving taste with a blocked nose).

SUMMARY:What’s Cooking in the Laboratory?
DESCRIPTION:Changes in pH can influence various chemical processes\, which is why accurate determination is important for understanding the properties of substances. Red cabbage contains large amounts of substances called anthocyanins. These are water-soluble pigments that change color in different pH environments\, which is why red cabbage can be used as a natural pH indicator. Cabbage is also a good source of antioxidants\, especially vitamin C. Antioxidants act by neutralizing free radicals\, thereby preventing damage to cells and tissues. We will test the antioxidant properties of vitamin C and determine its concentration in various common food samples.

SUMMARY:A Supercomputer for Food Analysis
DESCRIPTION:In the workshop\, we will learn how the brain analyzes and integrates information about food (from the senses\, the digestive system and adipose tissue\, and from memories) into a complex perception—flavor. This then determines whether we consume the food\, how much of it we consume\, and whether we like it. No machine can replace the analysis performed by our brains\, which is why food testers (of olive oil\, wine\, coffee) are always people.

SUMMARY:Can You Believe Everything You Hear About China?
DESCRIPTION:We will explore news that we often hear about China. We frequently encounter claims that can be verified with just a few clicks on a computer\, then disproved\, allowing us to learn what is really happening in China. \nFor example: People in China often eat dogs and snakes. What lies behind such a claim?\nOr: Chinese people do not have access to news because they cannot use the Google browser. Which browsers do people in China use\, and how much world news does a Chinese browser provide? \nWorkshop participants will be able to critically examine news and various claims about China themselves. Using a computer\, they will search for answers to their questions with the help of our sinologist Anja Ahčin and Chinese language teacher Xu Yidan. \nMore here.

SUMMARY:What Do Amphibian Bellies and Human Fingerprints Have in Common?
DESCRIPTION:We will present a method for determining the identity of amphibians using photographs: based on the belly patterns of fire-bellied toads or newts\, we can recognize each individual—just as fingerprints allow us to identify every human. Sometimes this is quite easy\, as fire-bellied toads have a very distinctive pattern of black and yellow spots on their bellies; at other times it is more difficult\, and researchers need to rely on various software tools. Participants will be able to discover this themselves through the engaging game “Bela Urška.” \nWhy do we do this at all? By using marking and photo-identification\, we can estimate the population size of endangered animal groups such as amphibians. In this way\, we contribute to a better understanding of biodiversity\, especially in the case of endangered species\, since similar methods can also be used for other animal groups (e.g. beetles\, butterflies). In the workshop\, we will also discuss the causes of species endangerment. \n\nFurther below\, you are kindly invited to read and view the following materials related to the event: \n\nEducational cards are available at this link.

SUMMARY:Guided Tour of Archaeological Park Simonov zaliv
DESCRIPTION:The sheltered area of Simon’s Bay attracted wealthy Romans as early as 2\,000 years ago\, leading them to build a large harbor and\, alongside it\, a luxurious Roman seaside villa. Today\, its remains can be viewed as part of Archaeological Park Simonov zaliv. During a walk through the park\, we will learn about the villa and some of its characteristic rooms\, become familiar with the fate of the site after the villa’s decline\, and finally explore the charms and challenges of archaeological work. \nMore here.

SUMMARY:Life of the Romans Through the Exploration of Archaeological Finds
DESCRIPTION:Using five different archaeological finds (or their replicas) as examples\, we will see what conclusions archaeologists can draw about life in the Roman period. What can\, for example\, a fragment of a glass bowl\, a statuette of Victoria\, a terra sigillata cup\, a brick\, or a stylus “tell” us? \nMore here.

SUMMARY:Ethics and Pitfalls in Science Communication (lecture for students)
DESCRIPTION:The World Wide Web offers easy access to information but also presents pitfalls. We will present unethical practices in electronic publishing\, such as predatory journals\, plagiarism\, predatory metrics\, and deceptive conferences. We will answer questions about how to recognise these practices and why it is not advisable to engage with them or use their resources. We will emphasise the importance of ethical behaviour in scientific communication and its impact on trust in science and the lack of critical thinking.

SUMMARY:Fake News and Conspiracy Theories: How to Combat them and Protect Gender Equality?
DESCRIPTION:“Raising awareness of the interested public through presentations on fake news and conspiracy theories in the field of gender equality: Despite technological and social progress\, even in the field of gender equality\, fake news and conspiracy theories exist. Based on their characteristics\, fake news can be classified into several subgroups\, such as: false information\, which refers to inaccurate information or manipulated truth with the aim of creating sensational stories; bias\, which refers to the fact that people will prefer to share and believe fake news that is consistent with their beliefs and biases; the spread of false information through the platform\, with the help of which the information spreads faster; manipulation through which the creators of false information only want to spread it for various reasons such as political goals\, financial gain or entertainment. \nAs a well-known example\, we can take the difference in pay for the same work between men and women\, many still deny this fact and do not attach any special importance to it. In the field of science\, there is often misinformation or stereotypes about what men and women can do\, or what abilities one group and another have. Stereotypical claims are also often seen in the fields of technology\, mechanical engineering\, computer engineering and mathematics. Some misinformation often tries to relativize and minimize the magnitude of the problem of violence against women or falsely state that most allegations are false\, even though research indicates that the proportion of false allegations in cases of sexual violence is relatively low. \nWe can still find news stories and messages from celebrities stating that feminism is part of a global conspiracy to devalue traditional values and the family and place men in a subordinate position. We also witness in many cases when they use conspiracy theories to try to convince others that feminism is hostile to men and promotes the dominance of one gender over the other. That is why it is important to recognize fake news and conspiracy theories and to be able to check the source of the information\, or to find out where the information is coming from and if we have found it within a credible source that supports or refutes the stated facts. \nVarious research projects dealing with gender equality can play an important role in raising awareness. We would especially like to present the AGRIGEP project within Horizon Europe. The aim is to make the general public aware of the importance and benefits that research in the field of gender equality brings” \n
