Description

This Course is only for teachers in the ESD 123 Region.

This course is designed as a general STEM Education Course for all teachers K-12. If you have been ready to jump back in to STEM Education or just want to know more, this is the course for you! You will be participating as a student, solving engineering challenges as you learn about the importance of STEM for all students at all levels.

Teachers will be able to identify opportunities for incorporating STEM activities into lessons; purposefully plan for higher level questioning and formative assessments; recognize the interdisciplinary nature of teaching and learning; spark students’ interest in STEM careers; and provide students with multiple levels of interaction for problem solving and critical thinking.

 Students will be able to practice and use their critical thinking skills in evidence based reasoning opportunities; collaborate and share ideas with others to problem solve; participate in the engineering design process with others to explore and create solutions to problems; recognize the relevance of learning and become better risk-takers in a safe environment.

Synchronous Work: This course will meet on Zoom 2 times a week for 3 weeks on Mondays and Wednesdays between April 26-May 12.

Asynchronous Work will occur between Zoom meeting time and participants are encouraged to involve the whole family in the STEM challenges. Participants will use FLIPGRIP to record STEM challenges for the asynchronous work. FLIPGRID will be clearly demonstrated during Zoom before participants will be expected to use on own.
