Join us for an opportunity to ask our guest speakers Claire Flammang and Martha Hoebens any questions you may have about how STEM careers can be contextualized in class, what teachers need to consider according to their students’ level and what kind of resources, materials, and tools they can use while designing their lessons to address real-life problems and STEM careers.

Speakers:

Claire Flammang: Service de Coordination de la recherche et de l’innovation pédagogiques et technologiques (SCRIPT), Ministère de l'Éducation nationale, de l'Enfance et de la Jeunesse, Luxembourg (MENJE)

Art and drama teacher since 2000, active member of the innovation department of SCRIPT (Coordination service of pedagogical and technological research and innovation, Ministry of Education, Childhood and Youth, Luxembourg) since 2016, I’ve always been driven by the urge of interconnecting creativity, new technologies, innovation and pedagogy. Co-author of the Luxemburgish framework of DigComp for teachers launched in march 2020, I’m at the present time national coordinator and organizer of events such as the Art Teachers’ Day, the eduMedia days (integration of new technologies in education), the tablUcation days (use of tablets in education), and in charge of the new school subject “Digital Sciences”.

Martha Hoebens, MSc was a chemistry teacher for years. The past decade she dedicated her time to help teachers to bring the ‘real world into the classroom’ via her own company ‘Bedrijf in de Klas’ (Company in the Classroom). She does so by translating global goals and complex company challenges into solvable cases for students. This case-based approach helps students to find out how school-subjects are necessary in real life and which career paths appeal to them. In addition to composing lessons for students, Martha also trains teachers how to design these cases themselves.
