Technical Day “scientists' evening” (STEM and environmental)
Finding a call for your life and choosing a choice for students can be a big problem if you lack a clean practical opportunity for yourself to work and understand why the future demands specialists who have both a skilled hand and a clever mind. We therefore invited masters of the small miracle education and technology centre to learn, work and explore the latest technological and human hand-to-hand achievements.
On December 11, AT Maltas High School, the project 'support for the development of educated individual competences' took place on a technical day at the “scientists' evening”. The pupils were active in the technical laboratory of the small miracle centre for two hours, studying miniature cars, cottages and people, studying their business secrets, as well as working in THE 3D magazine building.
Students were introduced to skills without which it would be impossible to create the only mini world in the Baltics where everything is 87 times smaller than in life. They learned what engineers, programmers, artists, mehatronics, architects, why today and future professionals with one profession have little to do in their daily work. In the course of the lesson, boys and girls knew both technology and different working instruments, learning what skills it is important to develop for anyone who works in a technologically and creative enterprise.
In the second part of the event, each pupil was given the opportunity to feel a small miracle masters daily - in the workshop they learned the skills of spatial, scale and modelling structures and created their own 3D world mathematics. Young people were given the task of reflecting the place that inspired them. One of them is Malta, another sea shore or Paris, another soccer area. Work with different spatial and tactile materials liked everyone. The created magazines were very different, surprisingly and creative. When they went home, the participants took up the work – to build their own self-assessment and inspire future dreams, skills and knowledge. I am convinced that at least some of the pupils will definitely associate their future with the area of mehatronics. The masters of the little miracle, driving away, wished all the safest dreams and hopes and invited them to visit the Miniature World Center in Sigulda!
