Our resources are in development, but please register to get involved for early access to resources for pilot testing.
We will provide educators with the necessary resources to promote and facilitate the learning of girls and women in STEAM fields. The Learning Centres Toolbox is co-led by Creative Spark and FabLab Porto and involves the design and piloting of three new learning paths that VET educators including teachers, assistant teachers, and trainee assistant teachers can provide to girls and women of various ages.
Our resources are being designed to be used flexibly in different scenarios.
Focuses on mentoring and role-modelling opportunities for female students with female professionals in STEAM fields who can share their unique experiences, guidance and support. Mentoring is a versatile and open training tool because it provides personalised guidance, builds skills and knowledge, fosters a supportive learning environment, encourages experimentation and exploration, and facilitates networking and career development.
FabConnectHer will provide opportunities in each partner country for mentorship and role modelling, connecting girls with female professionals in STEAM fields who can share their experiences and offer guidance and support. This will involve our Associate Partners as connectors to mentor opportunities.
We are establishing a FabConnectHer Connected Educators Ecosystem between Fab Labs on an EU basis that will explore how we as educators can collaborate and exchange knowledge, delivering on a Local Learning Centres priority. Once networked, we will facilitate co-creation and innovation among Fab Labs educators through an end-of-project challenge developing prototypes and solutions. So, what does this work package involve?
All our learning outcomes will optimise accessibility, inclusion and gender empowerment.
