Upon arrival, the students were divided into smaller working groups so that they could visit all the individual seminars in turn. Each topic was assigned to one lecturer who presented it both theoretically and practically.
The first habitat was grinding and cutting of minerals. The aim was to show the different density and hardness of different working materials according to the principles of Mohs hardness scale. Each pupil could also try polishing on a polishing machine.
Students also learned about the history of electricity production, basic properties of electronic components and the principles of circuitry. This was followed by a demonstration of electrochemical production and the use of a moving magnetic field. Finally, the pupils could try wiring simple circuits in the Voltík II kit and observe waveforms using oscilloscopes (e.g. with a multivibrator and other circuits generating waveforms to produce acoustic signals).
The third station was a static tensile test (tear test). The aim was to make the students realise that each material has different mechanical properties and is therefore suitable for different uses. The pupils were introduced to measuring with basic measuring instruments (calipers, micrometer) and tried to evaluate the measurement results in prepared reports.
The last thematic area was electricity. Through modern teaching panels, pupils were introduced to the basic knowledge of electricity and with the help of modules they tried to assemble different parts of the electricity system. Using software, they then simulated and measured various operating conditions.
