On Thursday 24th November we held our first ever Teacher training evening, here at Kitronik HQ. Joining us from
Just Add Sharks were our good friends
Dominic Morrow and
Martin Raynsford, who brought with them their expertise of all things laser cutters.
The main aims of the evening was the sharing of ideas and practices. Kitronik and Just Add Sharks shared ideas centred around the
BBC microbit and laser cutting respectively and Teachers also shared ideas and experiences amongst themselves. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and the feedback from the attendees indicated that they did also.
CPD Teacher Training Evening:
After the introductions were made we got down to business with sessions on laser cutting, the
BBC micro:bit and project ideas. Kevin and Geoff, Kitronik's Directors, and Martin and Dominic of Just Add Sharks hosted groups and talked through their various topics.
The star of the show, Pizza !
