The Hand That Rocks The Mind: Learning Through Hands-on Processes | Shafina Vohra | TEDxFrensham

During her early experiences in teaching, PhD candidate and Psychology teacher Shafina Vohra found herself with a room full of students bored by science. Rather than plodding through the textbook, she took a risk and got them using their hands, learning with their hands. This made her realise the power of hands-on learning. Teacher of A Level Psychology, Head of Faculty Academic, CPL Lead Academic and LEGO lead at London Design & Engineering UTC
As a LEGO Education Academy teacher trainer, I use Lego education concepts for STEM based learning and have also developed my own use of LEGO bricks in my teaching and in training staff. I use LEGO foundation 6 bricks, serious play concepts and other components of LEGO education in my delivery of training events or lessons.
