The workshops for students are designed specifically around The Opti-MINDS Challenge program and philosophy; however the skills and activities offered are applicable well beyond the Opti-MINDS arena.
They include:
- Presentation Skills
- Team Building and Communication Skills
- Creative Thinking, Improvisation and Characterisation
- Reading and Approaching Opti-MINDS Challenges
- Creative Problem Solving strategies
The Workshops are FULL DAY interactive sessions - held from 9.00am to 3.00pm on weekdays and are conducted by two experienced presenters.
(If necessary, workshop times may be negotiated to facilitate specific requirements).
- Viability of workshops is dependent on number of responses; a minimum of 40 students required per workshop
- Details of venues and specific dates will be finalised on collation of responses
- Schools will be notified ASAP thereafter
- Students must be accompanied by a teacher or facilitator.
COST: $35.00 per student
