Exciting experiments thanks to a generous donation
The fascinating world of RedOx chemistry became accessible to 10th grade students at the Maria-Theresia-Gymnasium Augsburg (MTG) in an innovative way. Thanks to a generous donation of €1,000 from the FORUM MEDIA GROUP, the school was able to procure special chemicals to carry out exciting experiments.
The highlight of the project was the production and testing of sparklers. In doing so, the young people were able to clearly see the oxidizability of metals such as iron and aluminium – an important aspect of the RedOx reactions. After completion, the self-made sparklers were lit in the schoolyard. The practical application and the fascinating light effects generated great enthusiasm among the participants.
The MTG is delighted to have the FORUM MEDIA GROUP as a strong partner at its side. The cooperation is to be further intensified: A project seminar is already being worked on for the senior classes in mathematics that aims to get the youngest members of the MTG school family excited about the world of numbers. FORUM will make its practical know-how in the areas of project management and marketing available to the seminar participants.
