For tackling this challenge, we intend to develop movement-based STEM learning modules for schools. Thereby, we want to attract the attention of young people to this important field by developing this new approach: A combination of learning, experiencing, being active, and having fun!
We develop Technology (Hardware & Software) and didactics to teach Physics, Biomechanics, Technology, and Mathematics.
The project lasts from 06/2019 until 5/2022. In the school year of 2021/2022 we’ll implement a pilot phase at a few schools in Germany, primarily in Lower Saxony and Bavaria.
Development of throwing gadgets with embedded sensors for measuring throwing parameters (focus on throwing angle and launch velocity) and making them visible on devices like tablets, Smartphones, etc. We synchronize the recorded sensor data with videos in which the throwing student performs the task.
The development of a waterproof in-ear device interacting with further sensor systems enables direct communication with the teacher/trainer and collects/processes different physical and biological data (these include pulse, body temperature, oxygen level, blood pressure fluctuations, and breathing rate).
“STEM by Cycling”:
Development of a module teaching how to cycle and the Biomechanics and Physics aspects which go into this topic. We also aim to create an incentive to include cycling into the Curriculum of schools for better student health and sustainable mobility.
Teaching students science and technique about cycling- The Songo Center in Stellenbosch (Kayamandi) has introduced a teaching module for STEM through cycling and bicycles – a programme developed in our STEM on the Move project. In collaboration with the Universität Braunschweig, ADFC Bayern and the University of Stellenbosch, resources were
… at least that’s what most people think. However, we set out to prove that STEM is not boring – or it doesn’t have to be. In our project “STEM on the move” we bring STEM topics into “the real world” in order to make them less theoretical and more

The ADFC Bayern is advising an international project that aims to teach scientific school subjects more clearly through exercise such as cycling in everyday life and in class. An interview with Armin Falkenhein, honorary chairman of the ADFC Bayern. The international education project “STEM on the move”, funded by the
