\u201cTravel through construction in the world of Technology, Science, Mathematics and Art.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/blockquote>\n

[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]he TechCard STE\u0391M program has already been introduced in the 3rd & 4th grade\u2019s curriculum of Arsakeia \u2013 Tositseia Schools. Moreover, Deutsche Schule Athen (German School of Athens) carries out a construction training program with TechCard in various technology groups.
\nTechCard has been created specifically for teaching Design Technology in Primary Schools and is also increasingly used to
\ninvestigate key elements of the Architecture, Science and Maths curriculums. TechCard is also an ideal resource for STEAM projects and learning. The idea is to use simple materials to create working models that let children discover and investigate important principles in a hands-on way. Learning through construction, experimentation and play makes learning both fun and memorable. TechCard technology has been used in schools around the world for 20 years and has now been completely revised to make it even more relevant to today’s teaching needs.
\nThe forces make things happen! A rolling ball, a lift, a rocket. Everything needs strength to move. A force triggers an action and there is always a reaction. By constructing mechanical models that work with the force of the air, students try to control the forces created by the movement of the air, list and examine the forces they encounter in their lives, as well as their effects.<\/p>\n

        Program goal<\/h3>\n

        The \u201cSTEAM World: Power-it\u201d educational program is aimed at primary school children (3rd-4th Grade) and introduces students to the forces created by the movement of air. Through the \u201cSTEAM World: Power-it\u201d fun activities, students are introduced for the first time to the idea that air is a substance and takes up space and, while it seems “invisible” to us, it can create power and most importantly\u2026 it can be used to transmit forces and move structures![\/vc_message][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
