Virtual Workshop: Rainforest Connections

• a facilitated one-hour interactive workshop with our Education Team
• supporting materials and resources including anything to prepare for the session

An Eden Teacher will be based in the Core Education Centre at Eden and will lead the live workshop. You and your class will be the only participants – it's just for you. 

The Eden Teacher will introduce Eden and the session and lead your pupils through a mixture of presentation, film, short tasks, Q&A. At least one teacher will need to remain present during the workshop, either in your physical classroom or as a participant on the call if pupils are joining from multiple locations. We’ll ask for your help organising groups and selecting pupils to give feedback.

We’ll provide all the resources necessary prior to the session and ask you to make them available to pupils via individual devices or in hard copy – we keep this to a minimum.

The sessions are delivered via video conference using Microsoft Teams. We’ll send you your unique meeting details after your booking confirmation.

You’ll need a computer with the ability to join a videoconference with a webcam and microphone connected to or built into the computer so that the Eden Teacher can see and hear your class.

You’ll also a smartboard, screen or projector and speakers connected to the computer so that your class can see and hear the Eden Teacher.

To maximise opportunities for interaction and a personalised experience the sessions are designed to run with a single class of students. Schools are welcome to book multiple sessions for different classes.

• Each event is only attended by a single class with a unique access code for each booking.
• Sessions are delivered from the Eden Project in a location where no members of the public will have access to seeing the students on screen.
• A minimum of two adults should always be present online, if Eden staff believe they are alone with the group they will end the call.
• It is not acceptable for anyone (including school staff) to record visual or audio content, take screen shots or videos or share private information without documented permission.
• If any pupils are joining from home rather than from the school classroom, participants will be held in a waiting room before the event and teachers are invited from the waiting room into the meeting first to verify they are teachers and to confirm the names of students expected in the session.
