Merced teachers attend Miniversity to learn creative ways to teach

MERCED, Calif. (KFSN) -- Merced City School District teachers are playing the role of students right now.

They're attending a variety of interactive classes through a program called Miniversity. The topics include everything from robotics and science to art and music.

The goal is to give the teachers creative new ways to share those lessons with students once school starts on August 15th.

All of the workshops are taught by fellow teachers who excel in those areas.

The classes are being held at different campuses and the district's Professional Development Center through next week.
