Tinkering School for Educators
3-Day Workshop and Seminar
Tinkering School for Educators is a three-day professional development experience for any educator eager to bring open-ended, hands-on problem-solving to their classroom -- or their entire school. You will leave with strategies to create hands-on learning experiences that will get your kids collaborating, asking questions, and solving problems in a whole new way -- no previous experience with tools required.
Join the Tinkering School staff for a three-day weekend of sharing ideas, meeting new friends and, of course, building!
TUITION: $800 for the general public, $100 for SFUSD and Boys & Girls Club educators. Financial assistance is available; contact info@tinkeringschool.com for details.
WHERE: 1960 Bryant Street in San Francisco, near MUNI, BART, 101 and I-280.
WHEN: TBA
