Augmented Reality STEM Teachers: Professional Development Programme

An intercultural blended professional development course targeting lower and upper secondary education teachers (with students aged between 12 and 18), that will promote teaching STEM applying interdisciplinary approaches and integrating innovative technologies, such as Augmented and Mixed Reality.

Overall Course Aim: Develop teachers’ knowledge & skills in teaching and learning using the EL-STEM approach through exposure to innovative learning methodologies and resources, and cross-cultural exchange of experiences and ideas.

The expected impact of this course is to:

  • Provide high-quality professional development opportunities to secondary education teachers that will enable them to acquire knowledge and skills on how to effectively embed AR/MR methodologies and technologies into teaching & learning.
  • Support teachers on getting familiarized with ways in which the Enlivened Laboratories approach could be implemented under the view of the inquiry-based approach with respect to diversity.
  • Motivate teachers on using innovative tools to attract students’ interest in choosing STEM-related studies & careers and improving their performance in courses related to STEM education.
  • Create and strengthen an online community of “AR STEM teachers” promoting the use of AR/MR technologies within STEM-related courses in lower and upper secondary education.
  • Set the basis for the creation of a widely accepted teachers’ training curriculum in Europe on using AR/MR technologies not only in the discipline of STEM but also humanities, literature, language learning etc.
