Workshops
A rapidly changing society requires matching knowledge and skills. Many of these skills are described under the heading of 21st century or cross-curricular skills. The HUB-Lab workshops are in line with the 21st century skills. (page is in Dutch)
The HU Library has developed a framework for learning objectives to embed in the curriculum.
Together with the applicant(s), we put together a customized workshop. To get an idea of new innovative resources and technologies that can be used, we offer a carousel. Here you become acquainted with various tools such as robots, (easy) programming and possibilities in the area of Virtual and Augmented Reality. Other options are taking part in an in-depth workshop on a specific theme or working with 3D pens, the Digi board Prowise or doing an Escape game. Our workshops are hands-on, practical and suitable for both students and teachers.
Please contact us about the possibilities.
