Workshop Descriptions Nutri-‐médias : a media literacy tool focused on nutrition. NAME: Martin Schmalzried SHORT DESCRIPTION: NUTRI-‐MEDIAS is a media literacy tool focused on nutrition originally targeting trainers of family organisations but also teachers and animators. NUTRI-‐MEDIAS develops awareness raising and training activities on the existing links between nutrition and the media, focusing especially on the impact of advertising. It was designed to make it as easy as possible for a trainer/teacher to organise an awareness raising event/workshop with a group of participants by providing a fully detailed PowerPoint presentation and an accompanying booklet Being ENABLED. Social and emotional learning in practice Ellie Cooper: The Diana Award Andrew Williams: The South West Grid for Learning This workshop will be jointly led by two UK experts from the ENABLE project. Have you seen people bullying others in your school? Want to make a difference and support others but you’re not sure how? Are you able to recognise negative emotions? During our session we hope to provide some answers to these questions and more. You’ll be the first to try out some new activities, which will help you reflect on your own emotions. You’ll understand bullying further and we’ll give you ideas on how you can prevent it happening. You’ll work with other students to discuss your school experiences, explore different bullying scenarios and how you can effectively respond to them. Your participation in this workshop will help improve the outcomes of the ENABLE project, which aims at eradicating this kind of behaviour in young people. “21st Century skills within the classroom”: Edgars Bajaruns The main scope of the workshop is to encourage teachers to design and implement cross subject learning activities through the use of ICT. Often teachers teach subject specific knowledge and skills within the curriculum, while greater benefits and results can be achieved through an interdisciplinary approach and teacher cooperation through the use of ICT. The workshop will have a very practical focus whereby teachers will have the opportunity to explore and discuss practical activities on using an interdisciplinary approach through the use of ICT when teaching history. Additionally the workshop will provide an environment for teachers to discuss and create possible scenarios for cross subject learning activities. You can code! -‐ Delivered and animated by Patrick Feeney, CEO of R3D Pixel and co-‐lead of the Brussels CoderDojo Learning to code helps us all think creatively, work collaboratively, reason systematically and solve problems, express ourselves fluently with new technology and become makers instead of just consumers. “You can code” aims at introducing coding to students in an engaging way, and help overcome some of the negative attitudes around it. During the activity, students will discover and test open programming tools, move their first steps into coding and explore technology from within. With a very practical approach, the workshop will give participants
the opportunity to start to create their digital stories and continue develop them, using the open tools they will have experienced. Creative iPads: Julian Coultas Apple Distinguished Educator. In this workshop the students will explore iPad video and audio production in a fun way. Working in pairs they will make video recordings, add sounds and learn how to make a movie! The students should come with headphones if possible.
