Seeing is believing. Many of us at ZEISS fell in love with the microcosm during the first years of training at school or university and microscopic images were often the trigger for this. So make sure that the young researchers see a great microscopic picture. And let them play around, while learning. The ZEISS page on Kahoot! can be just as fun as teaching and learning in the digital classroom.
