School Robotics Comenius teacher training courses in 2014

The Hands-on Science Network is planning on organizing three sessions of in-service teacher training in the field of robotics in 2014. A special focus will be placed on the hands-on IBSE and constructivism pedagogical theories. Particular issues of great importance as the use of ICT and gender problems will be discussed and examples of good practice presented. Languages of training are English, Spanish and Portuguese. Teachers involved with pre-school, primary, secondary, vocational, adult, and special needs education, teacher trainers, educational counselors, principals/managers of schools and some other professionals are eligible for these courses. Participants will be invited to share their experiences in educational robotics after the course in future Hands-on Science conferences. A complete course information is available through the Comenius and Grundtvig Training database at ec.europa.eu/education/trainingdatabase/.
