International STEAM Expert Visits Ditsi Village Public School

Representatives from the I2Q Project, along with international expert Jeffrey Nowak, visited Ditsi Village Public School in Gori Municipality. They toured the school’s STEAM innovative space and learned about the students’ project, “School of the Future,” which was developed for the national competition “Future Georgia 2025.”

The students shared their project’s development process, discussing the stages of idea generation, sketch creation, and project refinement.

“I am so delighted to be here with you today. This is the last day of my long visit to Georgia, and I really wanted to visit your school. The project you have created is impressive, and my meeting and conversation with you have been truly memorable. Keep thinking, creating, and refining. I wish you all great success,” international expert Professor Jeffrey Nowak encouraged the students.

The director of Ditsi Public School expressed special gratitude to the international expert for his visit and his support in implementing the STEAM extracurricular program. “This project has been very engaging for the students. We are thankful to the I2Q Project for its support. The resources provided will help our students build a better future. Your visit is greatly appreciated. The experience gained in this innovative space will be invaluable for our students. They have worked diligently on the project, gaining a deeper understanding along the way. They are generating more innovative ideas and will create even better projects in the future. Thank you for this extraordinary opportunity. Today is indeed a special day. I would also like to thank our teachers for their enthusiastic involvement in preparing the project with the students for the national competition. Thank you to everyone for supporting the students,” said the director of Ditsi Public School.

The Ditsi Village Public School was equipped with the necessary resources, equipment, and furniture to implement the STEAM extracurricular program with support from the World Bank, as part of the “Innovation, Inclusion, and Quality – Georgia (I2Q) (WB)” Project. Similar STEAM spaces are also established in 13 other schools across different regions of Georgia.
