The Educational Lab at Lakeside Park opened its research labs, and hundreds of students passionate about research, as well as others interested in education, accepted the invitation and were able to satisfy their inventive spirit and curiosity about new things under the motto «discover | try | marvel.»
How do you go from an idea to a prototype? How do you build a robot? How does video streaming work? What happens during 3D printing? What is gender? How does the city senate function? And how does life evolve? These and other questions formed the basis of the Edu-Day 2023 program. The entire Educational Lab, with its various labs, served as a hands-on research space where participants could experiment and try things out to their heart’s content. The different labs promote and strengthen skills in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics), innovation, entrepreneurship, language, and culture.
The open day at the Educational Lab was officially opened in the presence of Deputy Governor Gaby Schaunig and the host of Lakeside Park, Bernhard Lamprecht. «Lakeside Park is committed to providing impetus and promoting potential in the triangle of business, research and education. In the Educational Lab, we do everything we can to strengthen the research spirit of young people and give new forms of education a space to try out. The Educational Lab with its various labs is the ideal place for this, not least thanks to the good networking with the university, the colleges and the companies,» summarizes Bernhard Lamprecht, Managing Director of Lakeside Park.
The Educational Lab sees itself as a special place of teaching and learning where innovative educational concepts for primary, secondary and tertiary levels are designed and further developed. The Educational Lab currently comprises nine labs that offer their respective expertise in close cooperation with a partner organization (such as universities, universities of applied sciences, associations, etc.).
«The Educational Lab, with its countless opportunities to bring the world of science, research and technology closer to young people, is a valuable investment in Carinthia’s future. The enthusiastic experimentation and discovery of these young people in the Educational Lab shows the great potential of the employees of tomorrow, who form the basis of Carinthia as a state of technology and research,» said Deputy Governor Gaby Schaunig.
Another unique feature of the Edu-Day concept is that this open house was managed and organized by a group of students from HAK 1 Klagenfurt as part of their thesis project.
The concept of the open research lab for new forms of education, training and further education has been implemented at Lakeside Park since 2017. The Educational Lab offers people of all ages a very special environment for innovative learning and experimentation in the fields of STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics), research and development, entrepreneurship and internationality (culture, languages).
