Enjoy SACE-accredited courses and webinars!

If you missed last term’s Teacha! Inspire course, Unlocking Understanding, we have an upcoming webinar! This SACE-accredited webinar will tackle the issue of reading comprehension and provide practical strategies to help teachers, specifically those not teaching home language, address it.

According to the Progress in International Reading Literacy Study (PIRLS) 2016, 78% of South African Grade 4 learners struggle with reading for understanding – so this is a webinar not to be missed.

Plus, Maths teachers – this one is for you! Our Mindful Mathematics course helps you explore practical, research-based strategies and techniques that will help you promote critical thinking and engagement among your learners.

Dates:

6 September: Mindful Mathematics

20 September: Unlocking Understanding

Attend this exciting workshop to learn how to utilise this methodology while teaching coding and robotics in your class.

COMPUTATIONAL THINKING IN CODING AND ROBOTICS

Investigate practical activities of the four computational thinking skills, to build initial understanding of problem solving, algorithm design, abstraction and decomposition.

Dates:

29 August 2023 – Computational thinking in Coding and Robotics FP

30 August 2023 – Computational thinking in Coding and Robotics IP

31 August 2023 – Computational thinking in Coding and Robotics SP
