Course overview and purpose:
STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) is a multi-disciplinary approach to teaching. The STEM approach encourages discussions and problem-solving among students, thus making them more self-confident and motivated to solve problems more efficiently.
If you are interested in learning how to prepare inspiring and relevant lessons based on the STEM approach, this is the perfect course for you! The course will have practical activities and discussions on the tools that can be used to make the STEM disciplines creative and engaging (for example Scratch, Arduino, etc.), and how to create lesson plans integrating different aspects of STEM education such as coding, virtual reality (VR), robotics, and augmented reality (AR) into your class. This course will give you a better understanding of STEM and how to transform your teaching strategy!
Learning outcomes:
Understand what STEM is and what its benefits are
Learn how to create a lesson plan based on STEM
Learn how to adapt previously used materials to create a STEM lesson
Acknowledge all the different ways in which STEM education can be implemented in everyday learning
Develop a strategy about how to present new STEM materials and lessons in an engaging way

Your pre-registration helps confirm tentative dates and create new ones.
The dates listed are indicative and subject to confirmation. Final confirmation depends on participant numbers and the verification of trainer availability and other organisational requirements (e.g. training venue, accommodation, logistics, scheduling).
Course dates are usually listed Sunday to Sunday. The course usually takes place Monday to Friday and the full-day trip usually takes place on Saturday, so Sundays are arrival and departure days for those who book course, activities and accommodation. You can leave earlier if you book just the course.
