Abstract

This paper deals with the Research Natural Scientific Laboratory established in 2014 within the SteelPARK Košice exposition. The authors describe educational activities that are focused on development of research skills of primary and secondary school students. Students’ pre-concepts are studied using concept tests in the introduction of every activity. At the end, by way of formative evaluation tools (Wenning, 2007), students summarize and evaluate what they have learned during the activity. Selected outcomes of didactic research, as well as findings from informal education presented in this paper, contain some recommendations for teacher school practice.
