PROGRAMME ON 24 AND 25 SEPTEMBER EUCYS 2017 is open to all visitors: On 24 September 9:30-17:00 On 25 September 9:30-16:30 Workshops take place in the public area: On 24 September 10:00-15:00 On 25 September 10:00-15:30 Check out these science communicators in the public area during open days: Psychobus “Psychobus” goal is to bring the knowledge of scientific psychology closer to peoples’ everyday lives. In our Brain Lab workshop we guide the participants through examining their brain by using simple and more ad- vanced devices and then explain the results about the mechanisms of this mysterious organ. How easy is it to fool our sense of reality? How difficult is it to adapt to new sensory experiences? How different is our per- ception of the world compared to others? In addition, Psychobus offers anyone the opportunity to experience virtual reality first hand. Why are psychologists using VR? Come and find out! page 8 EUCYS 2017 Tallinn Rocket 69 Try out a true “Rocket69” TV-show experience! Do you know what it takes to turn a toothbrush into a robot? What about building a racing car from a block of wood? Or how to save a Lego minifigures’ life as it escapes from a landing capsule? Fast fingers will be challenged in tower building and brains will get to struggle with mathematics puzzles. Prizes for the best! The tasks are prepared and presented by “Rocket69” TV Show Science Team - this means an opportunity to get the authentic and awesome feeling of participating in the “Rocket69” show! Visit alone or with friends and prove everybody that you are the best! Space for children Tartu Observatory, University of Tartu Old Observatory and Energy Discovery Centre from Tallinn introduce different activities designed for schoolchildren (study sessions and days for schools, resources for teachers and science clubs, etc.), show different activities and exhibits and also provide information about how to pursue a career in space science in Estonia. NGO Robootika NGO Robootika is going to make two different exciting workshops in the EXPO area. The first one is meant for children under 10 years, where they can build and pro- gram a LEGO WeDo cross kart. Older students can build a tractor pull robot and challenge each other. Prizes for best teams! EUCYS 2017 Tallinn page 9 GLOBE GLOBE is an international environmental learning and science oriented program for school children of all levels dedicated to investigative studying and practical skills. GLOBE has a vision of promoting investigative studying and supporting collaboration between stu- dents, teachers, and supervisors. The GLOBE booth will introduce the activities of the program, and its bene- fits to both students and teachers. Measuring equip- ment will be introduced and demonstrated indoors by measuring indoor environmental parameters. We will explain what happens to the data and how it helps NASA and NOAA scientists in their research projects. An emphasis will be on the importance of regular daily weather measurements, the technologies involved will be explained, and an example data set will be recorded. Participants will get to try their hand at collecting data and how the equipment works. Together we will answer the question: “How can you join the GLOBE program?” page 10 EUCYS 2017 Tallinn Venue Map 1st1st Floor floor 2nd Floor 42 70 Jury Jury 15 43 71 16 41 69 Closed lunch & working Lunch area 14 44 72 chill-out area 17 40 jury area 13 45 68 area 39 73 18 46 67 12 38 74 19 47 66 Luggage Jury 11 37 75 20 48 65 10 76 21 49 9 22 50 77 Press 8 64 European 23 36 Commission 7 51 78 24 35 63 6 52 79 25 34 62 Prace 5 53 80 26 33 61 Study in 54 Snacks 4 32 81 Estonia 27 55 60 3 31 82 Research Media 28 56 59 Wardrobe 2 30 83 area Chill-out in Estonia 29 57 58 Open day activities 1 84 89 88 87 86 85 Photo booth Registration First Aid Wall of Fame Lunch area & information Staff Teachers' Teachers' Chill-out workshop Adult-in-charge area chill-out area Entrance / Exit 1-11 Biology 12-19 Chemistry 20-26 Computing 27-41 Engineering 42-53 Environment 54-57 Materials 58-67 Mathematics 68-74 Medicine 75-85 Physics 86-89 Social Sciences EUCYS 2017 Tallinn page 11 1st Floor 2nd Floor 2nd floor 42 70 Jury Jury 15 43 71 16 41 69 Closed lunch & working Lunch area 14 44 72 chill-out
