The P-Seminar at Bavarian Schools

Since 2010, students of secondary schools in Bavaria (federal state in Germany) have a new course during their two last school years. The so called P-Seminar is a project based seminar that is suposed to encourage self-based research as well as group work. The project work is accomplished with the help of external partners such as public authorities, social and cultural institutions as well as research institutes or universities.

The work includes three stages as shown in the following table:


Outline P-Seminar
Defintion and planning (12 weeks)
Definition of project/s
Arrangement of work groups
Definition of objectives
Clarification of resources
Identification of Milestones
Project Work (36 weeks)
work group meetings
meetings with teacher and external partner
independent team work
presentation of intermediary results
Presentation and evaluation (12 weeks)
Presentation of results with school or external audience
creation and discussion of individual seminar portfolios
postprocessing (achievments of objectives?, analysis of project work)


P-Seminar Synthetic Bio

As we found out in our survey last year, many people know only few things about biology and even less about synthetic biology. Therefore we developed a workshop to teach some basics of biology and synthetic biology.
