Develop Me Workshop
All Transition Year students have been participating in a “Develop Me “ Workshop here at Sacred Heart. (Monday December 7th,(4.1 and 4.2) and Tuesday December 8th (4.3 and 4.4.)
“Develop Me”specialises in bringing the highest quality experiential learning training into the secondary school classroom. Through experiential learning the focus is on two critical areas for today’s students: project management and understanding effective teamwork.
“Experiential learning is the process of learning through experience, and is more specifically defined as “learning through reflection on doing. Our workshops start with the students being placed in engaging, interactive, fun scenarios. The students are then asked to work together to come up with a way to approach the situation that will lead to a successful outcome.” (Ger O Shea, Managing Director)
