Digital Labs: teachers of artistic disciplines
The significance of art lessons at school is a highly debated topic. At House of Europe, we believe that music, drawing, drama, and arts and crafts classes are essential tools for shaping the pupils on their journey of becoming multifaceted personalities. That is why we dedicated the Digital Lab to arts educators.
The participants of the Digital Lab will learn how to inspire students to work in groups and use knowledge from other subjects, conduct engaging online lessons, and use art to work with psychological trauma. The Digital Lab will facilitate the process of creating new ideas on how to improve your school and develop a project proposal that you can submit for a grant.
The Digital Lab will last nine days and will take place in September 2023. We invite translators: you will communicate with foreign experts fluently.
Carefully study the application guidelines, join the Digital Lab, and grow professionally.
