What is the Techspace Programme
The TechSpace programme is a creative technology network for educators to take part in training and upskilling, and to help each other with digital media and STEAM.
From first-day training to support sessions, and equipment support, our team will give guidance to your organisation. After taking part in training, educators can find plenty of support from the Kinia Network, an online platform where educators can share material, be inspired, agus gain support for the classroom with our classroom lessons and step-by-step activities
Who is it for?
The TechSpace programme is suitable for educators in Irish schools at primary and secondary level, Gaeltachts and in youth clubs/groups/
What importance does it have?
Nowadays, young people live in a world surrounded by Technology, and The Techspace programme wants to enable them to be technological creators, not just consumers of it.
Young people will have the chance to take part in activities surrounding digital creativity and STEAM. There is huge emphasis on creativity, something that is focused on hugely with The Techspace Programme.
