The desire for ability (the interest in increasing wisdom) and the desire for innovation (the interest in creation) exist objectively, and the desire for knowledge (interest in recognition) cannot replace them. People pay more attention to ability, especially creativity, than to knowledge. It is much easier to make up for the lack of knowledge than to make up for the lack of ability. However, in pedagogy and psychology, there is only the concept of the desire for knowledge, but not the concept of the desire for ability and the concept of the desire for innovation. The strange phenomenon of "using cognitive interest to carry out intellectual and creative education" has existed for a long time. This makes insufficient the subjective initiative of "the cultivation of ability and innovation consciousness that must be started and run through". Strong comprehensive ability and innovation are the needs of the times for talents. Ability and innovation awareness can be cultivated. Just as the levels of knowledge and ability are different, the levels of thirst for knowledge and thirst for ability are also different. The thirst for knowledge cannot replace the thirst for ability and innovation. The process and methods of ability development and knowledge transfer are different and cannot be replaced by each other. It is necessary and possible to establish the concept of desire for ability and desire for innovation. Apply the concept of desire for ability and innovation to change the strange situation of cultivating creativity and comprehensive ability based on cognitive interest.

Einführung in Den Raketenbau Leitprogramm Naturwissenschaften Und Technik (Introduction to Rocket Construction Executive Program Natural Sciences and Technology)

Authors: Ursin Solèr
Comments: 61 Pages.

Das hier vorliegende Dokument ist das Resultat langjähriger Bemühungen im MINT-Bereich. Viele der Unterrichtseinheit hier werden in den USA von der NASA und anderen in der Jugendförderung im STEM-Bereich seit Jahrzehnten umgesetzt. In der Schweiz und hier insbesondere im Zyklus 1 & 2 des neuen Lehrplans sind zwar solche Interventionen angedacht, aber es fehlt nach wie vor an zielgruppengerecht aufgearbeiteten Unterlagen zur Unterrichtsdurchführung. Darum richtet sich dieses Dokument vor allem an Lehrpersonen die Themen aus dem MINT-Bereich vermehrt in Ihren Unterricht einfliessen lassen möchten und damit für Ihre SuS die Türe zu Konzepten und Themen der höheren Schulbildung aufstossen möchten.

This document is the result of many years of effort in the STEM field. Many of the lessons here have been implemented in the US by NASA and others in STEM youth empowerment for decades. In Switzerland, and especially in cycle 1 & 2 of the new curriculum, such interventions are being considered, but there is still a lack of target group-specific documentation on how to carry out the lessons. This document is therefore primarily aimed at teachers who would like to increasingly include topics from the MINT area in their lessons and thus open the door to concepts and topics of secondary school education for their students.
