Würzberg's HOBOS Project at the European Teaching Festival
Christoph Bauer knows exactly what students can learn from honeybees. This biology and chemistry teacher has been using HOneyBee Online Studies (HOBOS) in his lesson plans at the Würzburger Deutschhaus Gymnasium for quite some time. Now, he is presenting HOBOS to an international audience of teachers at this year's Science on Stage teaching festival.
Was Darwin Ever Stung by a Bee?
Living organisms adjust to their environments over generations by means of variation and natural selection. This first became clear to English biologists Charles Darwin and Alfred Russel Wallace.
Hardy Leaves HOBOS
Hartmut Vierle (32), a technician at HOBOS, will no longer be working for HOBOS as of March 1st, as he will be pursuing further career development. Konrad Öchsner, an electrical engineer with a concentration in telecommunications, will be taking over his role in the days to come.
HOBOS Made Easy
Short and simple words should be used. All words that belong together with respect to their meaning should be written in the same line. The reader is addressed personally. Words such as “and” or even “or” are allowed at the beginning of each sentence. These are all indicators of the plain language that is now being used by HOneyBee Online Studies.
"HOBOS is a Prime Example of a New Teaching Culture"
Secondary-school teacher Christoph Bauer from Deutschhaus-Gymnasium (DHG) in Würzburg and HOBOS project manager Professor Jürgen Tautz talk about their HOBOS cooperation for the first time.
Jürgen Tautz is the New Communicator
Dr. Jürgen Tautz, the bee scientist and founder of HOBOS was granted this year's Communicator Award from the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (German Research Association or DFG) as well as the Stifterverband für die Deutsche Wissenschaft (Donors' Association for German Science and Humanities). The DFG honors his many activities and methods to make his scientific results accessible to a wide public audience.
HOBOS Measures the Temperature
When do honeybees prefer to go on outbound flights? What weather keeps them in the hive? What can we tell about the temperature inside the hive at different seasons? On our website (www.hobos.de – HOBOS live – Measured Data) you can recall temperature values from the HOBOS bee hive and the weather station and depict them in a graph in conjunction with one another.
HOBOS Used at Elite-University in China for the First Time
A Chinese professor, his circle of students and hundreds of German HOBOS bees: The HoneyBee Online Studies (HOBOS) of Professor Jürgen Tautz made it to the most populated country in the world!
Stage Lights On! HOBOS Teaches in a Different Way: Premiere at the Frankfurt Book Fair
By what means and strategies can knowledge be conveyed better? What role does the practical part play, what role does the Internet play? What object is interesting for students of various disciplines?
Quiz “The Meaning of the Honeybee” - Transfer Knowledge via a Game
How important are honeybees for humans? What do humans need to know about these little animals? HOBOS gives insights about the world of the bees to better understand nature and the environment and to protect it for future generations.
