Designing a competence-oriented teachinglearning arrangement for modeling flower models by means of 3D printing

Abstract

Implementing the digitalization of schools and teaching involves challenges for teachers. They need the necessary technical expertise to be able to integrate new technologies such as computer-aided modeling and 3D printing into their lessons in a meaningful and profitable way. In order to support teachers, it is necessary to offer didactic legitimate teaching concepts that have been tested in practice. Model projects for innovative biology teaching form an important basis for this process. Within the framework of such a project, students create flower models based on real flowers. The learning success was evaluated and a corresponding teaching concept further developed. The study showed that project teaching has a positive effect on botanical knowledge.
