Women still play a subordinate role in STEM subjects, as STEM fields are dominated by men. That is why early promotion in school is needed!
Girls should be made aware of the STEM subjects, their exciting contents and future topics.
Today, more and more companies are also advertising a woman- and family-friendly working environment in order to attract more women to this industry.

Explanatory videos are transforming the landscape of secondary education. These engaging visual aids offer students a dynamic way to grasp complex concepts, making learning more accessible and enjoyable. In a world filled with digital media, these videos are the perfect tool to capture students‘ attention and promote active learning. Whether it’s minimize complicated scientific processes or unraveling historical events, explanatory videos empower educators to deliver content effectively. They also encourage students to explore topics independently, fostering critical thinking. As secondary schools continue to adapt to modern pedagogy, integrating explanatory videos is a forward-thinking approach that enhances both teaching and learning and is therefore part of the Pedagogical Model of LearnSTEM.

H5P tasks are included in the Learning Units of the LearnSTEM Pedagogical Model.
H5P tasks are interactive, engaging, and versatile digital content created for educational purposes. They encompass various formats like quizzes, interactive videos, simulations, and more. H5P tasks enhance learning by promoting active participation and can be easily integrated into online courses and websites.
