STEM Unplugged | Hands-On Learning in a Digital World | Ep. 1

In an increasingly digital world, how do we keep the magic of hands-on STEM learning alive? In Episode 1 of our mini-podcast series leading up to the STEM Learning Conference in Dubai this February, we explore the power of "unplugged" STEM activities to strike the perfect balance between screens and hands-on experimentation. Join host Alex Gray as he chats with Alex Moore from STEM Learning, UK, about: ➡️ The role of tactile, practical activities in science, computing, and mathematics. ➡️ Real-world examples of unplugged learning, from robotics and drones to physical experiments. ➡️ Why hands-on methods sometimes outperform digital tools in helping students grasp challenging concepts. ➡️ The importance of problem-solving, collaboration, and interdisciplinary approaches to tackle "wicked problems" like climate change and technology integration. 🗓️ Don’t miss the STEM Learning Conference in Dubai on February 22nd, 2025, hosted at GEMS Winchester School.
