[Now Accepting Registrations!!: STEAM Education Workshop on Sunday, September 20]

The “STEAM Education Workshop” is a training session where participants can learn through hands-on experience about current trends in STEAM and programming education, as well as the teaching materials used, facilitation techniques, and how to plan workshops and lessons.

In this first session, we’ll feature educational resources such as “MESH,” “micro:bit,” “Scratch,” and “MakeCode.” Participants will have the opportunity to experience firsthand the workshops we’ve held at CANVAS while we focus on the characteristics of these resources, workshop planning, and facilitation techniques. We also plan to offer equipment rentals to those who are interested.
