Presentation at the "PAD Fachtagung" in Magdeburg, May 27th - 29th 2013

At the symposium "Frischer Wind im MINT" organized by PAD (Pädagogischer Austauschdienst), which is the sole public organisation in Germany working for the interests of the Federal States by promoting international exchange and cooperation for schools, Annika Jokiaho and Birgit May introduced the INTACT project idea for teachers.

In the following discussion the attending teachers especially emphasize the possibility to be able to edit and modify the provided teaching and learning materials by INTACT in order to make them fit to the national curricula and the needs of the students.
Since this particular requirement already is on the list of the requirements of the INTACT online platform, it was good to recieve such a feedback from the teachers and to know we are on the right path.
