At Heureka, everybody gets enthusiastic about science and learning. This happens through freedom to test and try things out. Heureka is about “Joy of Discovery” – and now they are looking for new, innovative ways to offer that joy. If you are interested in tinkering, engineering or education, now is your time to shine. How might we create tinkering activities that are designed on world’s leading pedagogical models?
HEUREKA is the largest science centre and one of the most popular tourist attractions in Finland. Its exhibitions are mostly based on hands-on approach: a visitor is encouraged to test and try things out. One way to make this possible is through tinkering.
Tinkering is a design thinking approach; it is about testing, making and combining things as well as about learning by trial and error. At Heureka, tinkering is done at the Idea Workshop with different challenges. Visitors have materials and tools to craft their unique solutions to achieve the challenges’ goals.
How to encourage people to experiment and co-create new things at exhibitions? The emphasis at Heureka is to provide not only experiences to learn from but ones that tickle your curiosity and leave a lasting impact: real moments of fulfillment and inspiration. How to create that impact at a tinkering activity?
What should be the educational design principles when creating new tinkering activities? Heureka is looking for enthusiastic students to join in and create world’s leading tinkering concept.
If you love a hands-on project, where you actually get to create the physical product, this challenge is for you. Or if you are interested in education and how problem-solving can stimulate learning, we want you. Most importantly, we are looking for students who want to create something new – and there’s no better place for it than Heureka.
