“Jugend forscht”: Steinmühle once again achieved great success and even won the school prize
With three teams and a total of nine students, Steinmühle was represented this year at the regional “Jugend forscht” competition in Lollar—and with great success. The young researchers had to present their projects to a jury at a booth they had designed themselves.
All participating teams gave compelling presentations and won prizes:
A group of girls from the 11th grade did well in the “Jugend forscht” competition:
Second place in the biology category
went to Lena Noelle Joußen (16), Flûte Seifart (16), and Janina Seip (17) from the 11th grade (advisor: Dr. Dietmar von der Ahe) for their project on:
A Scientific Breakthrough? Could the Larva of the Greater Wax Moth (Galleria mellonella) Be the Solution to the Plastic Problem?
The results of the “Schüler experimentieren” competition were as follows:
- First place in the chemistry category
for Morten Köhler (12), Benjamin Schul (13), and Joshua Wieder (12) from class 7a (Advisor: Dr. Jutta Töhl-Borsdorf) with the topic:
Chew Your Way to Health—How Chewing Gum Affects the pH Level in Saliva - First Place in Chemistry
for Mats Böhmer (10), Marvin Preis (11), and Joel Rucker (10) from Class 5b (Advisor: Dr. Jutta Töhl-Borsdorf)
Topic: Help, acid in juices. Titration of juices
In addition, Steinmühlewon the“Jugend forscht” school prize , worth 1,000 €, even though it has only been participating in the competition since last year. The jury particularly praised the participation of very young students and the exceptionally high quality of the projects and presentations.
Steinmühle is delighted that three students (Flûte Seifart, Morten Köhler, and Joshua Wieder) have participated for the second year in a row.
All of the projects were created as part of the elective courses (Gufi Lab, WU Research).
