The Riedenburger Modell is a set of experiments for science education. The experiments are individually packed in drawers to fit in a standard cabinet. Each experiment is accompanied by printed instructions.
The experiments are selected based on the Bavarian curriculum for grade 5 secondary schools and middle schools in the teaching of nature and technology. There are a total of 23 experiments included, out of which 16 are student experiments and 7 are teacher experiments. The devices of the teacher experiment are provided once. The number of devices for the student experiments is customized to allow 5 groups to conduct experiments at the same time.
Detailed experiment instructions with didactic notes (teacher and student sections), photos of the experiment and a risk assessment are provided for all experiments.
These documents are supplied in paper form, but can also be accessed digitally using a QR code.
