Workshop

Rocks and Minerals: Understanding Earth’s Building Blocks

Rocks and minerals constitute the fundamental building blocks of the Earth. Yet, despite their centrality to science and everyday life, they remain one of the least understood topics in education.

This workshop bridges that gap through hands-on, inquiry-based learning where participants actively explore geological materials.
