Career orientation for young people: Coaching4future at the Neckar Realschule Stuttgart
On September 30, 2024, the educational program Coaching4future will be organized at the Neckar Realschule in the Stuttgart district of Mönchhalde, which offers students of the ninth grade interactive insights into MINT professions (mathematics, computer science, natural sciences and technology). Under the direction of young coaches, the students can gain practical experience in workshops on the subject of robotics by building and programming robots. This initiative aims to promote interest in technical training and fields of study and to support young people in professional orientation.
The importance of such education initiatives is underlined by the growing demand for specialists in the MINT area in Baden-Württemberg. The Southwest German state has not only established itself as an economic engine in Germany, but also offers a variety of training positions in technical professions. Companies from the automotive industry, mechanical engineering as well as information and communication technology are increasingly looking for qualified young people, especially in the areas of robotics and digitization.
Historically, Baden-Württemberg has a long tradition in the technical sector, which goes back to the 19th century. With the establishment of companies such as Daimler and Bosch, the region developed into a center for innovation and technology. Today's education system is strongly aimed at promoting MINT subjects in order to cover the need for engineers and technicians.As part of the upcoming workshop, the students are given the opportunity to learn the basics of robotics. The workshops use modern learning methods to convey these technical concepts in a playful way. Through the use of interactive learning modules, the participants are given the necessary knowledge in order to identify technical problems and to develop innovative solutions.
In addition, it is of interest that the Neckar Realschule in Stuttgart has a committed school community that supports the promotion of MINT subjects and practical projects. This can be seen, among other things, through the cooperation with the Baden-Württemberg Foundation and regional companies. The close cooperation between educational institutions and industry not only ensures practical training, but also contributes to the fact that pupils can make a specific connection to the world of work.Here is an overview table that summarizes the most important information about the program and its meaning:
