Prior to the course each of the participants completed the Shuttle Time online module and then they whole heartedly participated four hour interactive session with Shuttle Time tutors Tina and Joel. The participants got an opportunity to work with the Shuttle Time resources which include a series of 22 lesson plans along with demonstration videos. In small groups they planned and implemented a series of badminton activities from the Shuttle Time curriculum.
The course also focused on how to adapt each of the activities to ensure inclusiveness for a variety of different students. After demonstrating their proficiency with the Shuttle Time materials the participants were all awarded Shuttle Time Teacher certificates.
