What mathematical muscles are we strengthening when we work on a problem? By attending to different aspects of a problem, or different approaches/representations, can we challenge ourselves to a ‘whole body workout’ rather than only thinking about things from one/our perspective?

An exploration of a doctoral research study on how teacher perceptions of the Maker Mindset could impact teaching practice. The presentation will examine the research process, methodology and theoretical framework as well as discuss the potential impact from the anticipated findings. No matter where you are in your MakerEd journey, join me in an educational discussion on teachers and makerspace.

Imagine if you could save 30 hours of planning per year with one small tool? Imagine if you could help your colleagues to really understand the challenges that EAL & SEN students face?

In this presentation, I would like to share some of our STEAM projects in both elementary and middle schools to indicate how we integrate the STEAM education across the curriculum with the applicable transdisciplinary themes and create opportunities for our students to deliver innovative student-driven outcomes.

Project Lit Community began as an American based grassroots reading initiative that gets diverse books in the hands of students. The selected Project Lit titles tackle current social issues and ignite meaningful discussions with students. Project Lit can be used as a model for developing relationships with our students and promoting diversity and empathy within our school communities and beyond.

In my presentation, I will show examples of effective tutorial use in combination with classroom instruction, as well as tips on how to get started, update, and maintain tutorials.

This Executive Design Lab experience will meet you where you are and help you accelerate your Deeper Learning practices.
