Workshop: Tools for Teachers

Posted onAuthorTina Bayer

Our inspiring and very active Artist in Residence Liina Klauss developed an educational toolkit titled ‘Tools for Teachers’. She presented it also at the Art Moments – The Universal Sea Budapest Festival.

‘Tools for Teachers’ consists of a 45-minutes workshop supported by powerful vilsuals to inspire the crowd. It targets teachers, educators, activists and everyone who feels drawn to join! Liina Klauss will provide you with easy-to-adapt and concrete lesson plans and creative solutions to integrate the complex topic of marine pollution into the curriculum.

“I want to provide educators with a tool-box of methods ranging from art-sessions to science experiments to physical education field trips, making it easy to integrate the complex topic of marine pollution into their respective curriculums. Like dropping a pebble awareness needs to spread from one person to as many people as possible.” – Liina Klauss
