7. Scientix | Gras-Velázquez & Pérez-Rubio 08/06/2012 | Druskininkai, Lithuania eTwinning PDW 7 Let’s have an EDUCAMP EDUCAMP: Share knowledge and experiences Experiences, resources, and materials for STEM classes: ICT resources for teaching (simulations,...) eTwinning and other collaborative projects We need: a PC for every 3-4 teachers. adhesive labels and a pen

8. Scientix | Gras-Velázquez & Pérez-Rubio 08/06/2012 | Druskininkai, Lithuania eTwinning PDW 8 Let’s have an EDUCAMP - Prepare your label: - Write down the materials, resources or experiences that you are familiar with (e.g., simulations, specific eTwinning projects, materials, lab equipment...) and stick it on your shirt. - Look around for what might interest you. - Ask her/him to explain briefly how they used the materials, resources, experiences (with the help of the PC if applicable).
