Cork Education Support Centre on behalf of ATECI, in conjunction with UCC and with the help of NAPD, IPPN,PDST, IOP and with generous support from EMC are planning to have every school student in the country doing a lesson based on the work of George Boole on that day. If you have ideas or suggestions about how you might like to celebrate the centenary in your school or region please email Ruairí Ó Céilleachair at boole200project@gmail.com Our first Scientix National Conference for Agricultural Science took place on the 22nd November in the University of Limerick. It was a hands on practical day and over 100 teachers were in attendance on the day. Thanks to all who attended and made it such a great day. An overview of the day can be seen below. George Dennis performed a demonStration of the Gerber Test for the Butterfat Content of Milk. This and other videos including a full dissection of a sheep and pig ruminant and monogastric disection, performed by Paul Fox Teagasc for Leaving Certificate Students, will be available at the spring ag science course.

AMGEN TEACH Amgen Teach aims to deepen student interest and achievement in Science by strengthening the ability of life science secondary school teachers to use inquiry-based teaching strategies in the classroom. Amgen Teach uses training workshops and distance learning events to provide educators with the skills and confidence necessary to transform the student experience in learning Science. We would like to invite you to participate in the European Amgen Teach initiative. This is an exciting opportunity to participate in a series of professional development workshops for the Sciences. These workshops offer teachers upskilling in areas that are in line with new developments in Science education in Ireland. Scientix promotes and supports a Europe-wide collaboration among STEM (science, technology, engineering and maths) teachers, education researchers, policymakers and other STEM education professionals. The PDST is the national contact point for Scientix in Ireland. Checkout their website scientix.eu for resources, information and international workshop opportunities on STEM. All schools can apply for subject based support. To avail of school based support for Ag Science: Follow this link to our online form . IASTA aims to serve the teachers of Agricultural Science in Ireland by providing resources for teachers, organising events and providing up to date news about Irish farming to teachers. Visit their website here Bríd Finn and Tony O Shea are the Administrators for Ag Science and are based in Limerick Education Centre, Marshall House, Dooradoyle Road Limerick.

Fáilte chuig leathanach ábhair Cheimic na Sraithe Sinsearaí. SciFest Bhí Babhta Ceannais Náisiúnta SciFest 2014 ar siúl in Ionad Comhdhála Marino an 7 Samhain. Comhghairdeas leis na 38 dalta go léir a ghlac páirt ann agus míle buíochas leis na moltóirí agus leis na múinteoirí go léir a thug tacaíocht do na daltaí. Is féidir tuilleadh eolais a fháil faoin imeacht ach cliceáil ar an nasc thíos. Is féidir sonraí faoi achoimrí ar iontrálacha na ndaltaí sa bhabhta ceannais a aimsiú ach an nasc seo a leanúint Is féidir eagrán mhí na Samhna de SciFest Ezine a aimsiú ag an nasc seo a leanas Tacaíonn Scientix le comhar ar fud na hEorpa i measc múinteoirí STEM (eolaíocht, teicneolaíocht, innealtóireacht agus matamaitic), le taighdeoirí oideachais, leis an lucht déanta beartas agus le gairmithe oideachais eile STEM. Déanann sé an comhar sin a chur chun cinn freisin. Is í SFGM an pointe teagmhála náisiúnta do Scientix in Éirinn. Leathanach Faisnéise Féach ar a suíomh Idirlín, scientix.ie i gcomhair acmhainní, faisnéise agus deiseanna ceardlainne idirnáisiúnta ar STEM. AMGEN Teach Tá sé mar aidhm ag Amgen Teach suim agus éachtaí daltaí a dhoimhniú san Eolaíocht trí chumas múinteoirí eolaíocht saoil meánscoile a láidriú chun straitéisí teagaisc bunaithe ar fhiosrú a úsáid sa seomra ranga. Úsáideann Amgen Teach ceardlanna oiliúna agus imeachtaí cianfhoghlama chun na scileanna agus an mhuinín riachtanach a thabhairt d’oideachasóirí a theastaíonn uathu chun taithí an dalta a athrú agus iad ag foghlaim faoin Eolaíocht. Ba mhaith linn cuireadh a thabhairt duit freastal ar an tionscnamh Eorpach Amgen Teach. Deis iontach í seo le páirt a ghlacadh i sraith ceardlanna forbartha gairmiúla do na hEolaíochtaí. Tairgeann na ceardlanna sin uasoiliúint do mhúinteoirí i réimsí atá ar aon dul le forbairtí nua in oideachas Eolaíochta in Éirinn. Eagróidh SFGM trí cheardlann Amgen Teach in 2014-2015. Tá ár gclár á nuashonrú againn. Cláraigh do chuid sonraí anseo, fiú má rinne tú amhlaidh cheana, ionas go dtig linn an scéal agus an fhaisnéis is deireanaí a thabhairt duit. Cúrsa Ceimice an Fhómhair Straitéisí chun tús eolais a thabhairt ar thopaicí deacra i gCeimic na hArdteistiméireachta agus iad a fhorbairt Clúdóidh an cúrsa straitéisí chun topaicí deacra i gCeimic a theagasc. Scrúdóidh an cheardlann dóigheanna a bhféadfaí Leictriceimic a chur i láthair mar phacáiste iomlán agus trealamh neamhchostasach agus acmhainní spreagúla á n-úsáid. Féadann meicníochtaí imoibrithe i gceimic orgánach a bheith ina gcoincheap atá doiligh do dhaltaí a thuiscint. Déanfar iniúchadh sa cheardlann seo ar bhealaí nuálacha chun meicníochtaí a mhíniú le gníomhaíochtaí praiticiúla. Déanfaidh múinteoirí iniúchadh ar straitéisí, ar ghníomhaíochtaí, ar bhileoga oibre, ar bheochaintí, ar fhíseáin agus ar acmhainní a chabhróidh leo na coincheapa sin a chur i láthair agus aird na ndaltaí a mhealladh.
