▶Objectives
With this project, we want to encourage young people in the career orientation phase to get to know various STEM-related professions that characterise the changing fashion and textile industry and go beyond the usual professions such as tailor/fashion designer. Topics such as inclusion and diversity are taken into account in particular when creating the experiment box by taking into account the needs of different learning types.
▶Activities
Activity 1 STEM-related professions in the textile and fashion industry - an overview. Activity 2 Development and testing of scientific-chemical experiments, among others, based on practice along the textile chain for career guidance Activity 3 Development of a short guide for teachers/practice counsellors for the use of experiments as methodological-didactic material in school and extracurricular contexts.
▶Impact
R1 - Posters that visualise STEM-related professions in the textile and fashion industry in a transparent, understandable and informative way along the textile chain for young people. R2 - Development of scientific-chemical experiments reflecting the practice along the textile chain in order to arouse interest and promote the STEM skills of young people. R3 - Development of a guide for teachers/trainers to support the use of the experiments in school and extracurricular activities.
