Teachers register below to join this free online professional learning session on Thursday 25 March 4:00–4:45 pm.
Join Karen Parker from Tahuna Normal Intermediate School and Greta Dromgool from the Science Learning Hub in a session which will introduce you to Vision 20/20, an exciting Participatory Science Platform project exploring big ideas about our eyes and vision.
Discover how experts from Otago Polytechnic and Otago University’s School of Medicine have teamed up with Tahuna Normal Intermediate School to develop a peer-to-peer vision screening programme. Explore the rich learning opportunities and resources this project provides and how it might ultimately benefit students throughout Aotearoa.
The content covered in this webinar links closely to the Living World strand and the science capabilities. It gets students involved in an issue that is meaningful to them and supports them to take vision screening into their own hands.
This session will be valuable for both primary and junior secondary school teachers.
You will be sent a reminder email before the webinar.
