Popis: Digitalisation, artificial intelligence (AI) and digitality are janus-faced. Digitalisation or AI makes life easier through "convenience", enables freedom, increases productivity and frees us from the tedium of work, some say. It replaces things with ephemeral, atomised information that erodes truth and reality and thus displaces knowledge, experience and insight through the flow of information, say others.The advantages and dangers of digitalisation, AI and digitality are undisputed. The goal must be to use these and minimise disadvantages. This is best done by delving into their nature. And this as early as possible and directly at school. Simply flooding classrooms with electronic media is not sufficient.The Berzelius project bridges the gap between school science and lab science by offering students a high-tech instrument park for discovering the world by collecting and interpreting data. In this workshop, participants cruise through three high-tech instrument stations to ask nature questions through experimentation that the instruments will then answer in data form. Multimedia lab journals and a member of the Berzelius team support the participants. Afterwards, we discuss the participants’ experiences against the background of digitalization and AI and discuss how the project can be scientifically monitored and implemented in everyday school life.
