In this workshop we will use games and examples to introduce statistical concepts to children. Participants will learn the fundamentals of statistics and acquire basic skills for data analysis through play. The workshop is designed for children from grade 1 to grade 3 that will encounter the data cycle: they will define a research question, and based on this question…
Selected authors participating in this year's competition of the Youth for Progress Maribor programme will present their research papers and innovation proposals. Since the school year 1983/84, the "Youth for the Progress of Maribor" programme has been encouraging research work by young people. Initially organised by the Municipality of Maribor, since 2007 it has been run under the auspices of…
As part of oooScience! Project, a prize quiz will be held to introduce participants to the project "Climate Change and Sustainable Development of Slovenian Tourism" and emphasise the topic's importance. The quiz will be conducted using the Mentimeter application, allowing participants to join using mobile phones. It will be held multiple times throughout the day, with three top scorers from…
In practical experiments, participants will discover how criminological techniques, within the framework of participatory science, enable us to ascertain facts and uncover deceit and lies in both the physical and digital realms. The experiments will involve tracking in both physical and digital environments. Each participant will uncover hidden clues and, with the help of criminological techniques, critical thinking, and modern…
A poster presenting the EU legal framework for the green transition and a timeline for the implementation of European legislation; a quiz, "Individual's Role in the European Perspective for the Green Transition," testing the audience's familiarity with EU legal rules for the green transition and EU goals in the coming years, aimed at raising awareness about these goals and the…
Through a group quiz, participants will learn about the profile of a STEAM researcher, including educational conditions, competencies and the nature of the work.
Through 5 practical tasks, young people discover their strong competencies and talents. During the rotation between STEAM fields, there is a short discussion with a career counsellor about possible careers and their relevance. Participants take home a card with their talents and a list of three exciting careers in the STEAM field.
In the workshop, we will showcase exciting plant structures and closely examine leaf surfaces. Participants will be able to observe fascinating plant structures with a microscope and magnifying glass, create imprints of leaf surfaces and examine them under a microscope.
The workshops aim to bring astronomical topics closer to the broadest range of participants. Inside Europark, there will be a workshop on making a simple solarograph, a device that allows for the long-term recording of the Sun's apparent path across the celestial sphere. On the upper parking lot of Europark, weather permitting, we will observe the Sun during the day…
The European Union introduces itself Information on the European Union and funding programmes, with a focus on research, education and researcher career development
The project aims to formulate strategic proposals for reducing the carbon footprint of Slovenian tourism and adapting it to climate change through a participatory process based on actual data and in-depth models that incorporate the specific needs of Slovenian tourism. At the ERN event, the project results will be presented, focusing on tourism adaptation to climate change.
Introduction to its impact and creativity. Presentation of its advantages, disadvantages, potential risks, and benefits. This is followed by a workshop where you can quickly create your artificial intelligence model capable of recognising images, sounds, and more.
Could you recognise the lesser-known animals that live in our environment? You will notice many small and slightly larger creatures that reside near our homes, but you may not know them well. Are you interested in learning about these animals and would you recognise them? Join us and get to know them!
Visitors can generate electric energy by pedalling a bicycle, which will be used at the adjacent traffic light. The electricity and energy produced will be displayed on the TV screen.
The exhibition of different magnetic experiments includes: - Gaussian cannon: a magnet attracts an iron ball, which is transferred to another ball attracted by another magnet - Magnetic machine: shows the Curie temperature, where the magnet cools and remagnetises - Free-falling magnet in a copper tube: the magnet changes the magnetic field density, triggering induced currents and generating forces in…
Rose, coffee, fire - these are just three of the approximately 1 trillion smells that the human nose and brain can distinguish between, according to a new study. Could we distinguish the smells of different plant species?
As part of the "HybridNeuro" project, we are developing hybrid neuroscience that combines cortical and muscular information for motor rehabilitation and the assessment of neuromuscular disorders. This activity aims to raise awareness about the functioning of the human body, with a special emphasis on the sources of electrical current within it. A 3D model of the human body composed of…
The workshop focuses on invasive alien species of plants and animals that are increasingly present in our environment. Have you ever noticed them? Where?
The DigitalFashion project, funded by the ERASMUS+ programme of the European Commission, presents innovative methods of digitisation in fashion. The aim is to train students and professionals to use critical technologies in the virtual design and fitting of personalised garments. Participants will be introduced to a 3D virtual fitting platform based on three databases (avatars, textiles, garments) contributing to a…
We will unveil what organisational science encompasses and present the research work of the Faculty of Organizational Sciences, focusing on various aspects of this field. We aim to stimulate curiosity, especially among young people contemplating their career paths.
Colours have an influence on our moods, and our actions. Therefore, in presenting chemical experiments, we aim to include visually appealing ones. We will delve into more straightforward experiments, demonstrate the hidden colours in seemingly unattractive substances, proceed to slightly more complex redox reactions and coordination chemistry, and explore the colourful diversity of chemical compounds.
How do we solve practical problems in a field usually considered one of the most challenging and theoretical ones in mathematics?
Join us to explore various energy solutions for a cleaner, brighter tomorrow. Learn how these innovative technologies harness the power of nature while reducing environmental impact and enhancing energy efficiency.
Basic information on human capabilities, their meaning and testing. Testing in movement challenges: a) Strength endurance challenge b) Balance challenge c) Hand-eye coordination challenge
Using five different archaeological finds (or replicas of them), we will see what conclusions archaeologists can draw about life in the Roman period. What can they "tell us", for example, a fragment of a glass bowl, a Victoria statuette, a sigillate goblet, a brick, a stylus, etc.?
Documentary film "The Social Dilemma" for the general public. The film features interviews with individuals involved in creating social networks and dramatised scenes depicting a teenager becoming increasingly addicted to these platforms. Employees who contributed to Facebook, Google, Instagram, WhatsApp, Twitter, and other social networks emphasise the unexpected development and impact on many people. In addition to illustrating how tech…
