Kijk eens wat verder dan de Sterren
| Submitter: | Mark Bentum |
| Description: | Wednesday November 26, the project Kijk eens wat verder dan de sterren (Look beyond the stars) has started. Primary schools are invited to register for the project, a boundless adventure to interest children in science and technology. The project is a virtual journey, featuring a logbook, a suitcase full of tasks, excursions to unique places, engaging fellow travellers, and an exciting game in which everyone can participate. The journey is based on a story, a sequel to Het Logboek, the book that Anke den Duyn wrote and which was distributed to all primary schools in Drenthe. Ralf, one of the characters in the book gets involved in a new adventure. He travels through the universe in a special vessel, passing different time zones, and discovers the secrets of the universe. In each time zone an astronomical object or physical phenomenon will be visited. Schools that sign up for the trip will receive a travel budget from the Bank of Astronomia, which allows them to subscribe to interesting lectures and excursions. These have an astronomical topic as a starting point, but are always presented from an unexpected angle. Throughout the project runs a game: "What is the final destination of the trip?" Clues will be offered everywhere, on the website, in the episodes of the story, in magazines, etc.. Parents, grandparents, friends, .. everyone can join. Please visit the website www.kijkeenswatverderdandesterren.nl, follow the adventures of Ralf, and keep your eyes and ears open. |
