What are the trees up to?

In collaboration with the “Institut de formation de l’Éducation nationale” (IFEN), the Scienteens Lab organises a physics & sustainability workshop for teachers and teachers-in-training on Thursday, 30 October, from 14:00 to 17:00. This workshop focuses on how research is done in a forest.

How can we study an ecosystem and understand how it works? In this workshop, participants work with plant samples and learn more about the scientific method. They test their hypotheses about the functions and inner workings of these organisms and discover how to conduct research on a natural ecosystem and the organisms in it.

In addition to a presentation by Dr Louis Krieger from the Scienteens Lab, participants also get to try out the material we use to teach this subject to high school students.

The workshop is held in English.
