The National Nakdong River Biological Resources Institute said on the 27th it is accepting applications from schools and other educational institutions for its “teaching kit loan service” and its “online bio-environment classroom.”

The program, which begins that day, is designed to expand hands-on learning by distributing teaching kits and content developed by the institute for use in classrooms and other learning sites.

The teaching kit loan service provides free loans of seven types of kits focused on biodiversity and climate change for use in educational settings. The online bio-environment classroom is an integrated online-offline course that combines video content with hands-on activity packages.

Applications open that day through the institute’s website reservation system. Registration for the online bio-environment classroom runs through the 31st of next month, with up to 2,000 participants accepted on a first-come, first-served basis for each program; applications will close once capacity is reached.

“Through the teaching kits developed by the National Nakdong River Biological Resources Institute, children and teenagers will be able to understand the value and importance of biodiversity in an easy and engaging way,” said Yeo Jin-dong, head of the institute’s Exhibition and Education Division. He added that the institute will continue to expand educational content that can be used in schools and other learning environments.
