Heureka Classics - Science and Fun

• The Heureka Classics exhibition features a selection of the most loved, eye-opening experiences which have been on display earlier at Heureka as well as gems from other science centres around the world, which are making their debut at Heureka for this exhibition. This exhibition is funny, but it gives also many opportunities to study physics and psychology.

The Background

• When I had left my job in OSR-project Science Centre Heureka ordered in early 2011 digital material from me for the Exhibition Heureka Classics.

• Texts, photos, videos, quizes.

The Contest

• The OSR team is organizing an International contest for the development of educational pathways for teaching science, based on the use of the Inquiry Based Teaching Model. The contest participants are asked to develop an educational pathway using digital resources from the OSR digital library, and to upload it to the OSR repository.

The Contest

• The theme of the educational pathway must be connected with the exhibits (one or more) of the OSR science centers and museums, namely.
