Experience Workshop’s teacher development course took place between December 15-17, 2024, in Beijing, China. More than fifty early childhood education and primary school teachers joined from all subjects and focused on integrating technology into the classroom to enhance learning and engagement. Experience Workshop organized the course and Zoltan Marton and Sandor Kirchhof joined as trainers from Óbuda University, Budapest, Hungary. The overseas cooperation and development took place under the supervision of Experience Workshop’s STEAM Director, Dr. Kristof Fenyvesi.

Participants learned that technology can be a powerful tool for engaging students and making learning more interactive. However, teachers need to have the knowledge and skills to use technology effectively. The workshop also emphasized the potential of gamification and AI to create more personalized and engaging learning experiences.
