“I attended an Experimento workshop. And from there science took a new direction. Now all the children just love science. With the new CBC they have got a direction for the future.” (Octovin Auma Odongo, Langata West Primary School, Nairobi County)

Experimento is Siemens Stiftung’s international STEM education program. It is based on the principle of inquiry-based learning, which sees students actively shaping their individual learning processes. The focus is on independently experimenting with, studying, and understanding phenomena relating to energy, the environment, and health.

Coordinated by the NGO Impacting Youth Trust and in collaboration with the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology, Experimento has been used in STEM classes in Kenya since 2014. The inquiry-based learning method is directly linked to the agenda of the Kenyan Institute of Curriculum Development (KICD) and its new Competency Based Curriculum (CBC). In addition to the 4 Cs (Communication & Collaboration, Critical Thinking & Problem Solving, Creativity & Imagination, Citizenship), the focus is on connecting the curriculum content to the professional world.

In this video, Octovin Auma Odongo, teacher at Langata West Primary School, Nairobi County, talks about her experience with using Experimento in the classroom.
