Mentoring Young People Workshop with TIM FRIEL

How would you respond to a student that isn’t engaging with a Robogals activity? Do you know what the role of a mentor is when running a workshop?

Hosted by Robogals Canberra and Fifty50, this free workshop will assist you in developing:
>> Your understanding of the mentor's role in the learning journey of a young person;
>> Effective classroom management techniques, particularly for STEM activities;
>> Strategies for working with students, including those who are struggling with the content and interactions.

This workshop will run for one hour, with the following half-hour for networking and further questions with our facilitator, and Robogals alumnus, Tim Friel.
