“Our place” developed by SYKLI, is a program that gives teachers professional
development opportunities. Their motto is – observations-ideas-experimenting-fulfillment- assessment. This particular
workshop I attended, was trying to attract schools to adopt this hands-on
program, starting Fall 2018. All the
materials would be free for schools. This
curriculum was geared toward biology, physics, mathematics, art, and
handcrafting classes. The ideas introduced
here could also be incorporated to health, chemistry and music classes. The curriculum uses Mehack and Dodo kits. Participating teacher will receive full training and a kit free.
Another
workshop I attended was “Trash Design” course.
The idea was to use existing materials to make something useful and link
everything to existing curriculum.
The purpose was to
recruit high school teachers to start a technology program using Mehack and Dodo
kits. Participating teacher wll receive
full training and a kit free.
