Abstract
The «Berzelius project» is an interdisciplinary science education approach offering an outstanding, borrowable high-tech instrument park and dedicated theme-oriented multimedia laboratory journals (MLJs). A team of highly skilled science educators elaborates these MLJs using high-class videos, graphics and audios to get students hands on the lendable high-tech instruments that are generally far beyond school reach.
The fusion of instruments and MLJs similarly aims at fueling students’ sense of wonder and excitement, demonstrating straightforward scientific concepts and theories and at developing technological, data and media literacy. By arousing students` ability to question scientific topics in big data context, «Berzelius» is an invaluable product in progressive and modern science education. The BLJs are full to the brim with selectable digressions from literature, philosophy, art and other related areas, so that the multimedia experience can be tailored to the specific school needs. Last but not least, highly skilled students have the possibility to express their experimental findings in MLJs preparing them for later science careers and helping them to improve their communication skills.
In this interactive case study, participants cruised through defined parts of «Berzelius’» multimedia presentations for subsequent hand-on experience on some selected high-tech instruments such as spectrometers, photometers, chromatographs, etc.
