SciFi - Fuell-Cell Technologies as Regenerative Energy Source Raising Public Awareness of Science and Technology (Proposal-No RPAM-2002-00033) |
The approach to a
solution, through the SCIFI project, is characterized by a tight concentration
of Information and Communication structures. It is being tested and developed
on a regional level in three European regions: Stuttgart, Milan and Oberösterreich
(Northern Austria). SCIFIs philosophy is to initiate a meeting, which
brings people actively into contact with the science and technology. It
aims to bridge the widening gap between the public and science in these
individual areas of Europe. The solutions will then be transferred to
other regions in an expanding network. One of the main reasons for the
creation of regional solutions is to form centres of expertise. These
centres will act as platforms in organising and co-ordinating the educative
Information and Communication processes. Connected to the project,
EKV-EC (Ernst Klett Verlag-Educational Concepts) developed and implemented
the FCE ("Fuel-Cell Explorer").
The basis for this system is information about Fuel-Cell technology combined
with a quiz ("F-Cell-Quiz")
on related knowledge.
Fuel Cells
are a relatively unknown technology. The lack of information and poor general
knowledge of this type of technology is in stark contrast to its intensive
research and technical development and emerging commercialisation. Fuel-Cell
technology, its principles, areas of use and advantages in daily life are
areas, which have yet to be discovered.
