Training for trainers within the STEMLab Synergy project

Between 12–14 November, a three-day training for trainers took place in Ukraine as part of the extensive teacher training program organized under the STEMLab Synergy project. The training course brought together 5 trainers from Satu Mare County and 12 trainers from Ukraine.

The course included presentations, discussions, and practical exercises on the following topics: using modern digital teaching-learning methods, using artificial intelligence, and creating educational materials with digital technology. The aim of this course is to prepare trainers who will, in turn, train teachers from Romania and Ukraine, making lessons more engaging for students.

STEMLab Synergy: Shaping Future Skills in Romanian and Ukrainian Schools is implemented with the financial support of the European Union through the Interreg VI-A NEXT Romania–Ukraine 2021–2027 Programme.
