Introducing topics at electronics into the curriculum of general high schools

In the final thesis the current problems considering the enrollment of students in general high schools are presented and at the same time a lower enrollment of students appears at the Faculty of Natural Sciences and Technology. Even elsewhere in the world they are facing similar problems. Professions that are on the list of shortage in Slovenia are currently the professional-technical ones, while there are too many students at the socail-science oriented professions. However, the enrollment at the faculty of Social Sciences is still the highest. I have tried to find the lack of technical staff in the educational system itself, notcing that during the primary and secondary level of education, the students of high school education have no contacts with technological topics form the end of grade 8 till the end of high school, eventhough the time of high school education is the most important time for choosing their future career. I focused on how to introduce the topics of electronics in the high school curriculum with the aim that students should have the opportunity to discover and develop their talents in this area and therefore increase their interest to study science and technology. At one of the private high schools I analyzed, which faculty did the students enroll into, and then I planned, conducted and analyzed a course of electronics and tried to find alternatives how to pass good attempt on a wider range of high schools
