We all are continuously learning throughout our life in a process known as lifelong learning. But… what exactly is lifelong Learning? How does it effect our life? And what is the crucial role that museums playe in it? Lorenz Kampschulte, head of the education department at the Deutsche Museum in Munich, will provide us answers for these questions followed by entertaining examples. Lorenz Kampschulte holds a PhD in Nanoscience and worked for eight years as project manager and curator at the Deutsches Museum in Munich. By teaching complex scientific-technical contents in exhibitions and events, he has built up a broad portfolio of tools for science communication. From 2012 to 2018 he worked at the Leibniz Institute for Science and Mathematics Education (IPN) in Kiel, where he studied the teaching of scientific content at extracurricular learning venues.
From 2016 he was also scientific coordinator of the Kiel Science Outreach Campus. Since the beginning of 2018 he has been back in Munich and heads the Education Department at the Deutsches Museum. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
