SUMMARY:II Congreso Revolución en la Educación: Escuelas de Innovación
DESCRIPTION:Gary Stager will be a keynote speaker and lead breakout sessions at this conference in Bogota\, Colombia. \n\nKeynote: \n\nBeyond Creativity: Educating for an Uncertain World \nJoin Dr. Gary Stager as he makes the case for embracing modernity as a way of preserving the finest traditions of child development and preparing children to solve problems neither their parents or teachers can imagine. As a father\, grandfather\, and veteran educator\, Gary remains optimistic that each kid can realize their potential if parents and educators are courageous enough to stand on the side of children. During his presentation\, Gary will illustrate how learning-by-doing\, new technological materials\, and timeless craft traditions can supercharge the learning process. He will encourage us to educate for the the future of our kids\, rather than our past\, and demonstrate how not all screens are created equally. Along the way\, he will share evidence of educators more than up to this herculean challenge. \n\nLearn how to prepare children to solve problems that neither their parents or teachers can imagine\nUnderstand how emerging technology may amplify the potential of each student\nSee how learning-by-doing\, new technological materials\, and timeless craft traditions can supercharge the learning process\n\nSessions: \n\n\nA Conversation with Gary Stager\nDr. Gary Stager is considered one of the world’s leading authority on learning-by-doing\, robotics\, computer programming\, and the maker movement in classrooms. He led professional development in the world’s first “laptop schools” 28 years ago\, created one of the first online Masters degree programs for educators\, worked with severely at-risk learners\, and collaborated with Seymour Papert for two decades. Over the past thirty-five years\, he has worked in schools on six continents and taught learners from preschool through the doctoral level. This session represents a rare opportunity to ask questions and engage in freewheeling discussions about the future of education following his conference keynote.\n\n\nTeaching Coding and Physical Computing\nLearn how a project-approach to computer programming\, robotics\, and physical computing can serve a diverse student population while developing your own skills. This workshop will explore powerful ideas from computer science and engineering that may be employed in the solving of problems across the curriculum. A review of software and hardware options will be explored in addition to two focused programming and robotics activities. Participants will also have experience with the BBC Micro:bit and other low-cost “microcontroller development boards” offering great potential for learning through making\, tinkering\, and engineering in the classroom. \n\n \nReinventing Children’s Mathematics\nThere may be no greater gap between a discipline and the teaching done in its name than when the beauty\, power and mystery of mathematics become math instruction. One can only begin to address the systemic challenges of math education by understanding the nature of mathematics and the power of computing. Nearly 100 years of efforts to increase achievement with unchanged curricular content continues to fail spectacularly; yet\, we do not change course. This state-of-affairs undermines other efforts at school progress. Surely\, the widespread availability of computational technology demands new pedagogical approaches and a new diet of mathematics.

SUMMARY:FabLearn 2019
DESCRIPTION:Sylvia will be the opening keynote and lead a workshop at FabLearn 2019 at Columbia University Teachers College\, New York City\, NY. \nKeynote: Making the Future: The Future of Making\nMarch 9\, 2019 \nMaking in education connects educators around the world in a quest to make education more authentic and relevant. We stand on the shoulders of giants who articulated new understandings of what learning could be and new ways to explore powerful ideas. In the present\, we strive to deepen our commitment to provide authentic learning opportunities for all young people. We look into the future to see what the children in today’s classrooms will experience\, and support them as they become changemakers and global citizens. \nTogether\, let’s explore the past\, present\, and future of making in education so that we can equip children with the tools and mindset to solve the challenges of the future\, and make the world a better place for all. \nWorkshop: Making Making Sustainable: A Collective Blueprint For the Future\nGDH 541 (to be confirmed) Sunday March 10\, 2019\nFacilitators: Sylvia Martinez (Invent to Learn\, USA) \nABSTRACT: Will making in education have a lasting effect on education\, or will it become just another “new new thing” that is overtaken by some newer new thing? This workshop will be a working group to create a blueprint of items and actions that the participants believe will help make “making” in education a sustainable practice in schools worldwide. The nature of the blueprint will be the first item of conversation\, followed by brainstorming on topics. I expect these topics will be things like: classroom practices\, research needed\, professional development\, teacher certification\, resources\, policies\, assessment\, and curriculum. However\, the group may come up with other topics. \nMore about FabLearn 2019: 8th Annual Conference on Maker Education\nMarch 9th – 10th\, 2019\, Teachers College\, Columbia University\n2019 Conference theme: What Role does Maker Education Play in a World with Growing Social and Environmental Challenges?\nThe FabLearn Conference\, in-Cooperation with Association for Computing Machinery\, Special Interest Group on Computer-Human Interaction (ACM SIGCHI)\, brings together key influencers and thought-leaders from around the world in education\, policy-making\, academia\, design\, research\, and maker communities to learn\, present\, and discuss digital fabrication in education\, the maker culture\, hands-on learning\, and instructional tools. \nThe two-day conference features: \n\nWorld-renowned keynote speakers\nPanels of cutting-edge researchers and educators\nDemonstrations of the latest technology\nImmersive hands-on workshops\n\nThe conference has two primary goals: \n\nEstablishing the current “state of the field” by gathering information about the work conducted by those in the field\nDisseminating information about best practices and tools\, and connecting researchers with practitioners\, policy-makers\, and pioneering educators.

Participants will gain benefit of the expertise Gary has developed leading “making” workshops around the world for the past four years. This work is distilled into a several rich hands-on making\, coding\, and engineering activities using a variety of affordable technologies that may be successfully implemented in any classroom.\n\nLearn to learn and teach with in the exciting world of Hummingbird robotics\, littleBits\, Scratch\, Snap!\, Turtle Art\, wearable electronics\, microcontrollers\, digital paper craft\, programmable toys\, and other new materials in a project-based context.\n\n\nYou will learn: \n\nHow new tools and technology can reinvigorate Project-Based Learning\nBest classroom practices for integrating maker technology\nHow to plan engaging projects based on the TMI design model\nHow to choose the technologies with the maximum learning impact\nHow to make the case for making\, tinkering\, and engineering across the curriculum\n\n\n\nBring a laptop and your imagination. We’ll supply the rest (craft materials\, art supplies\, construction elements). This workshop is suitable for all schools\, grades\, and subject areas.\n\nBeyond Creativity: Educating for an Uncertain World (main presentation)\nJoin Dr. Gary Stager as he makes the case for embracing modernity as a way of preserving the finest traditions of child development and preparing children to solve problems neither their parents or teachers can imagine. As a father\, grandfather\, and veteran educator\, Gary remains optimistic that each kid can realize their potential if parents and educators are courageous enough to stand on the side of children. During his presentation\, Gary will illustrate how learning-by-doing\, new technological materials\, and timeless craft traditions can supercharge the learning process. He will encourage us to educate for the the future of our kids\, rather than our past\, and demonstrate how not all screens are created equally. Along the way\, he will share evidence of educators more than up to this herculean challenge.\n\nMaking the Digital Technologies Curriculum Meaningful (expo talk)\nLook hard enough and you should find objectives in the Australian and state Digital Technologies curricula that may be used to support rich\, relevant\, and authentic project-based learning across the P-12 curriculum. Dr. Stager will help you navigate the mountain of tables\, objectives\, and contradictory messages so that all educators have the courage to begin realizing the power of digital technologies to learn and do what was perhaps unimaginable just a few years ago with a sense of urgency and confidence. He will define critical terms\, dispel myths\, and offer an expansive educational vision that builds upon the new curriculum.\n\nSubscribe to our newsletter for more information about this and other upcoming events.\nSaveSave \nSaveSave
