Caption: Date: 1967-01 Location: Dhankuta, Dhankuta Description: High School teachers participating in a two-week seminar on classroom techniques for teaching science. The seminar, organized by a Peace Corps volunteer, emphasized the use of "hands-on" science experiments in the classroom, using basic materials to demonstrate scientific principles. The two dozen participants were teachers from Dhankuta and nearby schools; they chose to spend their holiday time taking part in the seminar. The participants carried out the "hands-on" experiments themselves in the workshop. Keywords: Brian Cooke, Nepal Photo History Project, Peace Corp Photo History, event, training event
