 PDST Agricultural Science Video Workshops Spring 2012
Flyer available by clicking herePDF File

Agricultural Science Workshops have been organised for eleven different Education Centres during Spring 2012.  Participants will get the opportunity to meet up with like-minded colleagues to discuss successful teaching strategies and exchange resources. Participants will also receive a resource DVD and explore how these resources could be used to stimulate Agricultural Science learning and augment the enhancement of literacy and numeracy
Please Note:
This DVD has different content than that on the resourceCD distributed at previous workshops. It contains

  •  Targeted resources for Literacy & Numeracy
  •  Improved lesson presentations, many with integrated videos and animations.
  •  More information on using ICT in the Ag Science Classroom.
  •  More images and photos.

New Service Provision for Teachers

The Second Level Support Service (SLSS) extend its gratitude to all of you that supported the work of the service throughout the years since its establishment in 2001. A new cross - sectoral service, the Professional Development Service for Teachers  (PDST) was established in September 2010. The PDST subsumed much of the work of the SLSS.

The PDST is happy to inform you that the resources, materials and functionalities of this website will continue to be available to you in the future. 
It is our intention to provide continuing professional development opportunities for teachers of Agricultural Science. A team of enthusiastic colleagues are currently developing exemplar teaching and learning resource materials. Some of these have been uploaded under the Teaching Resources heading.
