Do you teach at a primary school, NMS, AHS or BHS school and would like to use creative concepts, new technoloiges and tools in the classroom? Would you also like to give your students unique and COOL external activities?
Then take advantage of our ideas and workshops! The JKU COOL Lab is an educational learning place for all subject areas and grade levels. We offer a wide range of topics that allow you and your students to take on the roles of learners, educators, researchers and developers, depending on their interests. Learn more about innovative technologies, educational tools, and apply COMPUTATIONAL THINKING across all subject areas. You will be paired with experienced researchers at the JKU who can provide you with continual education and tips as well as supplementary expertise in scientific subject areas. We can also provide support to implement the new "Digital Literacy" curriculum. Students can attend workshops, take part in competitions, events and internships and receive additional support to help them think about their future careers.
