WASO training seminar at Tau School
On February 25th, 2015, the CREAT-IT project realized a Write a Science Opera (WASO) training seminar for 27 teachers at Tau School, in the Strand municipality in Southern Norway. These primary school teachers of various disciplines (science, math, Norwegian, music and more) developed a scenario for primary school pupils about photosynthesis. The seminar ended with a focus group evaluation led by Djurdja Timotejevic from the Center for Promotion of Science (CPN) in Serbia, which is the organization that leads the CREAT-IT Evaluation and Quality Assurance process. During the focus group discussion, Norwegian teachers provided important feedback regarding how they perceive WASO projects as a teaching framework, and how exercises from the WASO approach may be used in everyday teaching.
