MCML Thinkathon

A Short Recap

MCML has launched the Thinkathon, a new initiative designed to connect AI research with the practical needs of the Bavarian education system. In a hackathon-style setting, MCML Junior Members collaborated with mentors and stakeholders from the Bavarian Ministry of Education and other partner organizations to develop hands-on, AI-based teaching kits for real-world classroom use.

The Thinkathon brought together PhD students and postdoctoral researchers from MCML, whose creativity and technical expertise were central to the success of the initiative. A jury of experts from academia, education, and practice evaluated the projects, and the winning teams received the MCML AI in Advanced Education Award, along with tickets to the Festival der Zukunft 2026.
