TED Talks - Tinkering School
Check out this video about a 'hands-on' school for kids in the States. Students are only there for a week but look at what they achieve in that time. Gever Tulley teaches life lessons through tinkering
Discovery Time is a hands-on activity-based programme that puts students in control of their own learning. The teacher sets the scene but the students decide on the action. As one student put it "Discovery Time is the best part of the whole week." Read our blog and find out what is happening in Discovery Time sessions around New Zealand. Our book is now available for just $48(NZ). Email discoveryt@gmail.com for your copy.
