Workshop 1:
This session demonstrates how tactile learning, through paper, movement, and play, builds stronger foundations for reading and spelling, while EdShed’s digital tools are used intentionally for reinforcement, retrieval, and progress tracking.
Discover how to strike the right balance:less screen time, stronger outcomes, and smarter use of technology.
Workshop 2:
AI Tools for Better Teaching & Revision
How do we move AI from a "tech experiment" to a core classroom tool? This practical session introduces an offline-ready framework for modern teaching. We’ll show you how Snapplify is bringing "unplugged" intelligence to the classroom through software that lives directly on student devices.
Curated for Primary and High Schools.
