In the last decade out-of-school laboratories were established to promote scientific educational processes. Meanwhile, they contribute to the scientific and technological education process. Initially, these learning laboratories were mainly set up from a science point of view to promote using scientific approaches. The focus, however, has now shifted to economic issues and career orientation. The industry-oriented lab Baylab plastics has extended scientific and technical out-of-school learning experiences with potentials, perspectives and the demands of an industrial company. Successful changes to the image of physics and chemistry as well as positive effects on career orientation have been achieved.
