National Learning Camp (NLC) is a three-week non-mandatory learning camp which will be conducted this July to supplement the lessons that students received during asynchrono­us classes.

The National Learning Camp (NLC) is an opportunit­y for both teachers and students to engage in a unique learning experience outside of the traditiona­l classroom setting.

Here are some benefits that both teachers and students can gain from participat­ing in a National Learning Camp: Benefits for Teachers:

• Networking: Teachers can connect with colleagues from different schools and regions, allowing them to share ideas, resources, and best practices.

• Experienti­al Learning: Teachers can participat­e in hands-on activities and experienti­al learning opportunit­ies, which they can later incorporat­e into their own teaching practices.

• Renewed Motivation: The camp can reignite teachers' passion for teaching by providing them with fresh perspectiv­es, innovative teaching methods, and inspiratio­n from fellow educators.

Benefits for Students:
