Maker Space for electronics and advanced ceramics
The Sensor Space is aimed in particular at schoolchildren between the ages of 10 and 16 and can be designed individually. In addition, the Sensor Space is regularly open as a MakerSpace to freely use devices and tools or to inform about offers. However, the Sensor Space is not only on site in Hermsdorf. The Sensor Space mobile is on the road in the Saale-Holzland, Saale-Orla and Greiz districts.
At Sensor Space, children and young people learn skills and competencies for the development and application of future technologies. Courses & AGs in the afternoons are designed to complement school lessons - experimentation is the main focus here. The SENSOR SPACE offerings are primarily available to the students of the approximately 40 secondary schools (regular schools, high schools and comprehensive schools) in the districts of Greiz, Saale-Orla-Kreis and Saale-Holzland-Kreis. Around 15,000 pupils in the 10 to 16 age group have the opportunity to get to know SENSOR SPACE at various events. The goal is to reach about 300 to 500 students per year with weekly offers after a start-up phase of the lab.
The abbreviation "MINT" stands for "mathematics, IT/ computer science, natural and engineering sciences and technology". In our Sensor Space, these topics are made tangible:
