**6. Evaluations of the course**

The evaluation of the courses took place verbally and was later put onto paper. With the help of statistical evaluation methods, feedback can be recorded quantitatively in order to validate the success of the measure or to adapt it. In addition to inquiries such as "How did you like the lecture/the programming/the difficulty of the tasks/the course schedule?" (6-degree scale from 1 = very good to 6 = not satisfying) or "How did you like the day?" (3-degree scale from 1 = too easy to 3 = too difficult), the questionnaire includes open questions that allow room for comments and suggestions for improvement.

The pupils (n = 8) mentioned, on a 6-degree scale, that the presentation was very exciting (Median = 1.25), that the programming had been very good (M = 1) and that they learned something (M = 1.13). Every pupil also said that they enjoyed the course and that he/she would like to visit the course again. Some of the students mentioned in the open questions section that they wanted a successor program, which will be developed as a consecutive step. Due to the small sample size, the statistical power of the results is reduced and statistical relevance of the quantitative data needs to be discussed. However, from a qualitative point of view with regard to the frequently given feedback, the analysis showed that the students' enthusiasm, interest, and appreciation for the courses were high among both teachers and students.
