21st Century Learning workshop

Here Katie Brown, one of the Canadian teachers on the Compadres trip is now conducting a workshop on 21st Century Learning using the computer program Scratch. Katie started off by setting the context by discussing the process of teaching higher order skills. The Salvadoran teachers are well aware of these methods, however until recently, they did not have the computer technology to apply some of these skills. During the workshop today Katie will take the teachers through the program. Teachers can use Scratch to teach their kids the basics of programming.
This is how Compadres works - sharing of ideas and concepts between Canadians and Salvadorans. Very rich!
This afternoon, we are going to try to install wireless cards so the computers will all be able to access the Internet.
