Students invent garden robots: The future of cultivation in Grimmen!

Stralsund, Deutschland - A fresh wind blows through the educational landscape of Vorpommern-Rügen, in the form of innovative projects and exciting developments. At the Grimmen high school, pupils have developed an app-controlled garden robot that measures the soil moisture fully automatically, sowing it independently and weed. As the Ostsee-Zeitung reported, this was done as part of the Schulag "Biobot" in collaboration with IT experts from the Stralsund Makerport. The project based on a concept of a California start-up will be completed by the end of the school year, whereby the young people and teachers want their own robot.

The biobot had its premiere on July 17, 2025 on the "Green Farm" in Stralsund. This is an intelligent gardening robot that not only removes weeds independently and pours, but also monitors the plants of the bed. Students in grades 7 to 9 not only practiced technical skills, but also thought creatively and solved problems. The promotion of teamwork and problem-solving competence is very popular in today's educational landscape, as is emphasized by the UNESCO World Education Report 2023, in which the importance of technological developments in the field of education is emphasized. In this context, the need for fixed rules for the use of technologies, including artificial intelligence, is discussed in order to ensure learners-friendly training So the German UNESCO Commission .

insights into the local economy

In addition to the education innovations, another aspect ensures conversation in Vorpommern-Rügen: The CDU has given the proposal to transfer responsibility for the job center from the region to the Federal Employment Agency. The reason? Structural challenges on the market, stagnating integration quotas and increasing administrative costs. It is interesting that Vorpommern-Rügen is the only district to have a job center on your own. An advantage that the supporters of the handover would see would be the possibility of using an online user account for applications and appointment agreements, which would consider the process considerably reports the Ostsee newspaper .

The treasures of the region can be discovered not only in technology and administration, but also in the area of creative professions. An example of this is the talented Kristina Kujehl, who has switched from a career as a police officer to sought -after tattoo artist. Their career shows how artistic precision can be combined with entrepreneurial clarity. Kristina masters her everyday life between studio, family and further education with flying colors and has made a name for itself far beyond the sound limits of her homeland. Your discipline and attention to detail are characteristics that make a real difference in the market.
