Lego’s methodology is even used at the University of Nyíregyháza
Change language:
Central Eastern Europe’s first Lego Education Innovation Studio has been opened at the University of Nyíregyháza. The new classroom and methodology centre focusing on the principle of play-based learning opened on 17th October. On the very same day, the classroom was already occupied by teachers, instructors and students of teacher education.
Western Europe’s several institutions where teacher education is taught had been members of the network that the University of Nyíregyháza has joined with this action.
This methodology centre is focusing on bringing experience-based learning to the forefront,
this way, the pupils are actively drawn into the learning process. Besides, the innovation studio serves as a community centre as well, because it can bring together schools, teachers, pupils, and even parents. The main benefit of play-based learning is that it helps to separate STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths) skills from usual classroom education.
This new centre will help children to develop their logical skills, comprehension, strengthen their mathematics skills, as well as introduce them to the basics of robotics.
