Learn how to use educational drones in the classroom
Many teachers say they don't know how to or don't feel confident enough to use indoor microdrones in the classroom. Yet with a rise of awareness of the importance to teach 21st century skills at schools, it is hard to argue the benefit including drones in these learning areas. Drones make fantastic teaching tools to engage students in STEM subjects, teach students digital literacy, make coding fun and 'real', and engage especially those students that don't naturally gravitate towards STEM subjects.
She Maps helps teachers around Australia and internationally to get comfortable at teaching with drones. Not only do we provide a range of ready-to-teach classroom materials and educational drone equipment, we also developed a teacher professional development program to build teacher capabilities and confidence when it comes to teaching with drones.
