Water: Learn it for life! Teacher Workshop

23 October 2008

Several teachers attended this special workshop which previewed the seven classroom units that have been produced for the new and very popular state-wide Water: Learn it for life! program. The Water: Learn it for life! program promotes Waterwise principles to teachers, students and their families. The units provide an integrated approach across Prep - Year 7 for implementing SOSE, Science, English, Technology and The Arts Essential Learnings in the curriculum. These units include assessment ideas based on the new QCAR framework.

Participants received a copy of the classroom resource for their year level and a CD-ROM of the full primary resource. Furthermore, teachers were able to find out how best to access the educational resources available from Queensland Museum.

The teacher workshop was presented by Bevan Smith, Senior Project Officer - Waterwise Queensland and Allan Morrison, Project Officer - Queensland Museum.

Sciencentre Teacher Preview Night

26 February 2008

25 teachers from around the South East, attended a special Sciencentre Preview. Our preview evenings are designed to be accessible for teachers and provide a relaxed opportunity to identify how we can meet the needs of you and your students and how the Sciencentre fits with your curriculum.

For teachers who had visited the Sciencentre, this preview highlighted how you can maximise student enjoyment in the Sciencentre and how students can explore, explain and engage with science. Teachers also had the opportunity to find out about upcoming programs and available resources.

For teachers new to the Sciencentre, the preview helped them gain an understanding of the key messages and concepts and become aware of the ways that teachers and students could get the most out of their visit to the Sciencentre.

The evening was very successful as it provided teachers with the opportunity to meet other teachers and share ideas and programs.
