5. Intel ISEF Educator Academy Intel ® Education Programs 5 Reflection Our key learning from the Educator Academy: Common challenges in almost all countries. A lot of inspiration, new ideas and new contacts! What impressed us the most: Very warm and friendly welcoming, relaxed atmosphere and easy to make new friends. Good that the accompanying teachers were also invited. Nice to meet with parents. Good to have time for email and work from home. Good with hosts to help with action plan. Generally very good key note speakers. Which Shop Talks were the most beneficial: Key note speakers: Larry Shoop. Martin Chalfie. Mick Ebeling. Shop talks: Tobias Degsell. Noel King. Sheila Porter. What would we improve: Details: Please have more fruit and veggies at breakfast and during the day. Too much air-conditioning. Simplify the evaluations. It could be a good idea to encourage presenters to try and convey more general experiences rather than just being descriptive. What types of Shop Talks were missing: None!
