During the months of May and June (Monday-Friday) (with limited availability Jan-March), Virtual Ventures offers a variety of dynamic in-class school workshops, at low cost to schools. Each Virtual Ventures workshop is between 1.5-3 hours in length (specified in package), led by two university instructors and intended for 20-30 students.
Workshops are hands-on, fun, interactive, and have been designed with the Ontario curriculum in mind. We have suggested grade levels and strands applicable for each workshop, however please feel free to call us to discuss if a different workshop may be suitable for your class. Many teachers use our workshops as a review of topics covered earlier in the year, to supplement current class work, or as a cost-effective alternative to a field trip (with much less paperwork!).
Please call us @ 613-520-2600 ext.5007 or e-mail us at vv.director@carleton.ca for any questions.
We also have bursaries available for schools that qualify. Please contact us to find out more about our free workshops!
