The Center of Experiments Maribor (CEM), science museum, which is meant for young people and children, schools, teachers, youth centers, youth workers and others who are interested in the promotion of science and skills, and the only such center in the north-eastern Slovenia, functions under the auspices of the European Cultural and Technological Center Maribor (EKTC).<\/p>\n
Development<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n The Center of Experiments Maribor, funded by the Ministry of Higher Education, Science and Technology in the 2008-2011 period, is the result of the program \u201cPromotion of Science and Innovation\u201d. It is one of the programs for young people and the general public that is based on similar natural science museums around the world. It brings a much needed supplement to the \u200b\u200bnorth-eastern area of Slovenia regarding the encouragement of young people and adults to learn about the principles of natural sciences. It also offers active development and understanding, since we use the principle of active involvement of visitors who independently test repeatable experiments.<\/p>\n Methodologically, the Center of Experiments Maribor uses experiential learning pedagogy, which enhances understanding, memorization, and the transfer of knowledge to other fields. The Center of Experiments Maribor opened on September 25, 2009.<\/p>\n The upgrade of the Center of Experiments Maribor was enabled by the European Capital of Culture 2012 program, when the Maribor Experiment Center \u2013 in cooperation with the University of Maribor \u2013 operated under the common brand called House of Science \u2013 Center of Experiments. From 2013 on, the Maribor Center of Experiments operates independently under the auspices of the European Cultural and Technological Center Maribor established in 2003. Since 2013, the Center has been operating independently under the umbrella of EKTC Maribor.<\/p>\n Our novelty is an educational and fun birthday celebration with LEGO robotics.<\/p>\n 91.020 Activities of museums<\/p>\n 93.299 Other unclassified leisure activities<\/p>\n 72.190 Research and development activities in other natural sciences and technology fields.<\/p>\n 85.590 Other uncategorized education and training.<\/p>\n 82.300 Organizing exhibitions, trade fairs, meetings.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n President of the Board: Tatjana Intihar<\/p>\n Member and founder: Tanja Jakopi\u010d Rojec<\/p>\n Supervisory body, employee representative, assistant to the project manager: Jelena Gornik<\/p>\n Director, project manager, youth work, volunteering, and Erasmus+ exchanges: Tanja Jakopi\u010d Rojec<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The European Cultural and Technological Center Maribor, social enterprise, a private institution, NGO with the status of a Youth center recognized by the Office of the Republic of Slovenia for Youth (Ministry of Education) and the City Municipality of Maribor, performs various activities in the field of youth work.
