For the fifth year in a row, the conference and fair "New Technologies in Education 2018"  brought together some of the best teachers in the field of using ICT in their classrooms, making this event better year after year.

Over the past years, we had the opportunity to meet over 200 speakers from the Western Balkans, UK and other countries who shared their experiences in the use of educational technologies through lectures, panel discussions and workshops. We firmly believe that this year's program will be the highest quality so far.

WORKSHOP

Unlike other occupations in which gender is mostly equal, careers in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math, Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) are characterized by a large gender gap, which is largely a consequence of stereotypes. In line with the increased need for human resources in STEM areas, the Hypatia project is concerned with raising academic gender stereotypes that are an obstacle to selecting STEM careers for girls and girls across Europe.

At this workshop, the participants will learn more about a set of tools offered for free by this project, with the idea to help education professionals to interest young people in the STEM area and encourage them to explore the diversity of careers in STEM in a gender inclusive way.
