Evaluating the quizzes using the QR code

The well-known Czech psychologist Tomáš Rodný, who specializes in counseling related to the selection of suitable studies and professions, was consulted during the development of the exhibition.

Most exhibits are connected to evaluation software, which assesses which field of expertise you excel at on the basis of your success in fulfilling the tasks. Tasks are divided into three levels according to age. The minimum age limit for completing evaluation is eight years old. After completing all the stations your measurable results will be sent to your e-mail address.

iQLANDIA Science Center Liberec

iQLANDIA is an interactive entertainment-education centre situated in Liberec. It is the first of its kind in the Czech Republic and draws from the concepts and experience of many such “science centers” around the world. Its basic idea is to utilize games, interactive exhibits and entertaining educational materials in order to make learning a fun experience for visitors of all age groups [schola ludus (learning through games)]. The exhibits are divided into several thematic sections such as optical illusions, electricity, inventions, etc.
