GOALS

TMP:

Aim: The aim is to present the survey results, policy recommendation and what they have done until the meeting, difficulties that have been faced during the development of the outputs and possible solution recommendations will be presented.

LTT:

Aim: The aim of this training is to provide participants from partner organisations and involved in the local trainings with the skills and knowledge they need to train the local primary teachers on how to implement the intervention with students. This will give participants an opportunity to explore ways that the different components of the lessons and topics can be incorporated into in-person trainings that they will be conducting.

Topics will be:

  • Social-emotional Learning Settings (M&M)
  • Cohesive Inclusion Education (Foyle)
  • Inclusive educational robots (UDE)

 

We want to answer the questions:

  • How robots can be a useful educational resource?
  • How to use TOKADI?
  • How to implement the intervention? Card, storytelling, steps, etc.
  • How robots can support the social emotional development?
  • How robots can support inclusion?
  • How to use the robot to evaluate?

 

Methodology will be:

  • learning by doing. Based on an activity, we will introduce the topic and the content (this content will be completed after the training with a guide/handbook that will include the intervention steps / lesson plan and the local training methodology-guide).
  • Pre-activity / reading about the topics: preparation for the training. As we only have 12 hours to introduce the different topics and know about the intervention and topics, participants will do some introductory pre-activities.

Participants for this training will be staff/local trainers from partner organisations who will conduct the local training with teachers. They will in turn carry out the local trainings based on the topics learnt during this training.
