Oide & SonS Workshop on SDGs

Mary Mullaghy 21 January 2024

The Science team in Oide and Science on Stage Ireland are facilitating a face-to-face 2-hour evening workshop for all STEM teachers who are interested in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in STEM education.

The evening will support teachers in engaging with the SDGs in a practical way in their classrooms. There will be an opportunity for teachers to engage collaboratively to support students in engaging with the SDG’s in a practical way.

Sustainability and environmental protection are important topics for our students.

Join us as we explore these new interactive teaching materials that have been developed and trialled by 20 teachers from 12 European countries.

The materials are hands-on (many using sophisticated tools) and encourage students to become active and responsible citizens while promoting their interest in STEM subjects. This workshop is suitable for all science teachers including those of JC and TY. https://www.science-on-stage.eu/act-now-sdg

Attending participants will receive workshop notes, the latest SonS-Ireland book and a BBC microbit to engage within their classrooms
