Science goes to school: Travelling exhibition on the topic of (micro-)plastics

As part of the joint project MikroPlaTaS, a travelling exhibition on the topic of microplastics and plastics has been developed especially for use in schools. In addition to presenting basic information on the use, distribution routes and effects of plastics, the exhibition also presents the research team's own project results. The aim of the exhibition is to inform pupils about plastics in the environment. The main focus is on the question of why a large proportion of the tiny particles are deposited in waterlogged areas.

In addition to project days, it can also be used in biology or chemistry lessons (upper secondary level). A handout is also available for teachers with suggestions and explanations for integrating the exhibition into the curriculum. The travelling exhibition can be sent and used throughout Germany.
