• Future-oriented teaching: Integration into digital science lessons with tablets or smartphones.
• Increased motivation of students by using the intuitive measureAPP.
• Increased media competence.

Tasks

With the help of this experimental set-up, the students are to evaluate different substances according to their radioactivity.

Learning objectives

The aim of the experiment is to enable the students to judge for themselves whether a radioactive substance is involved.
