SUMMARY:International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) 2017
DESCRIPTION:Sylvia Martinez and Gary Stager will lead sessions at the International Society for Technology in Education 2017. \n Everybody Wins When Everybody Codes \nMonday\, June 26\, 9:00–10:00 am\nConvention Center 217Bc \nJane Krauss   Sylvia Martinez\nCoding for all? Sounds great! Now let’s figure out how. Learn how quality curricula\, inclusive pedagogies and intentional support can lead to significant learning for all kids\, including girls and underrepresented groups. Leave with a model pathway you can further develop for the grade band you teach. \n Make It\, Wear It\, Learn It \nMonday\, June 26\, 10:30–11:30 am\nConvention Center Hemisfair Ballroom 2 \nSylvia Martinez\nLearn about new technologies that combine craft traditions with digital electronics. Sewable\, wearable projects invite different students into the maker movement by providing new and multiple on-ramps for a wider range of students. We’ll explore new conductive materials – thread\, fabric\, paint\, glue\, foils and specialty micro controllers. \nBefore You Build a Makerspace: Four Aspects to Consider \nTuesday\, June 27\, 1:45–2:45 pm\nConvention Center 302A \nSylvia Martinez   Gary Stager\nMaking and makerspaces in education conjure up images of students deeply engaged in real\, relevant\, technology-rich projects. But there are four distinct aspects to unpack when creating a maker program: Space\, culture\, process and pedagogy. This session will help education leaders build a roadmap for their school or district. \n Logo at 50: Children\, Computers\, and Powerful Ideas \nTuesday\, June 27\, 4:45–5:45 pm\nConvention Center Hemisfair Ballroom 2 \nGary Stager\nLogo\, the first computer programming language for kids\, was invented in 1967 and is still in use around the world today. This session will discuss the Piagetian roots of Logo\, critical aspects of its design\, and versions today. Anyone interested in CS4All has a lot to learn from Logo. \nLearning From the Maker Movement in a Reggio Context \nWednesday\, June 28\, 8:30–9:30 am\nConvention Center 220 \nGary Stager\nDiscover how the Reggio Emilia Approach that is rooted in a half-century of work with Italian preschoolers and includes profound\, subtle and complex lessons from intensely learner-centered classrooms\, is applicable to all educational settings. Learn what “Reggio” teaches us about learning-by-making\, making learning visible\, aesthetics and PBL.

SUMMARY:Educon 2.9
DESCRIPTION:Sylvia Martinez and Gary Stager will lead sessions at Educon 2.9\, January 27-29\, 2017 in Philadelphia. Educon is an innovation conference where we can come together\, both in person and virtually\, to discuss the future of schools. Every session will be an opportunity to discuss and debate ideas — from the very practical to the big dreams. \nSessions dates and locations TBA \nWhat the E? A Modern Understanding of Engineering in STEAM\n\nSylvia Martinez\n\nEngineering is one of the least discussed components of STEAM education. This session will be a conversation about what engineering should look like in K-12. Is it simply hands-on science? Do you need a special curriculum? Is it only for students who are thinking of engineering as a college major? \n\nComputer Science For All – Cutting through the opportunities\, challenges\, and confusion\n\nGary S. Stager Ph.D.\n\nPresident Obama recently proclaimed a goal of computer science education for every student. Progressive educators should lead such a movement. This session will explore the mutually supportive nature of making\, progressive ideals\, and computer science education\, while cutting through the confusion associated with the hype. \n\n\nThree Questions\n\nGary S. Stager Ph.D.\n\nMythopoeic theory suggests that you teach based on a personal myth about how learning occurs. When terms like genius\, revolution\, transformation\, and reform get tossed about\, it’s worth taking a deep breath to clarify basic beliefs about learning\, teaching\, and educational progress. We will explore three essential questions for educators.

Making\, Tinkering\, and Engineering in the Classroom or Makerspace\nWednesday 25 January 11:00 AM – 1:30 PM \n\nLocation: \nHyatt Regency – Bayhill 27\n\n\nTrack: \nFuture of EdTech Educator\n\nGet started with “making” in the classroom! Join the author of Invent To Learn to discover the steps for successful making at your school. This hands-on workshop will showcase the power of making\, tinkering\, and engineering. Explore learning by doing with a wide range of new materials and technologies that support all content subjects. Experience the use of design thinking\, genius hour\, PBL\, and other classroom frameworks that support hands-on\, minds-on learning for all grade levels. Discover how making asks the maker to create something outside of themselves that expresses their own thoughts and ideas. See how the technological game-changers of 3D printing and computer science require and fuel transformations in the learning environment. Gain knowledge of the options and ideas for the best starter purchases\, makerspace design\, and where to find free and low cost supplies. BYOD. Beginners Welcome.\n\n\n\n\nC106: Girls & STEM: Leadership for Inclusion\, Equity\, and Action\nThursday 26 January 10:00 AM – 11:00 AM \n\nLocation: \nOrange County Convention Center – South 330H\n\n\nTrack: \nFuture of EdTech Administrator\n\nAre there ways that work to interest more girls in STEM\, and keep them interested? This session will explore research\, resources\, and best practices to involve girls of all ages in STEM. Research shows that girls remain interested in STEM activities that are real and relevant\, yet teachers feel that they are both underprepared and discouraged by leadership to deliver this kind of curriculum. Administrators\, however\, report that they support and encourage these activities. Where is the disconnect? What is reality and how is it affecting students? What is really happening in classrooms despite the rhetoric of STEM/STEAM? Participants will learn about the potential to bring new tools and technology to K-12 classrooms to support hands-on learning across all grades and curriculum – plus areas that are of particular interest to girls\, such as inventions that help people\, sewable electronics\, e-textiles\, bio-materials\, citizen science\, and community projects. Hands-on projects and tools can engage girls (and all learners) in STEM activities that matter. We will explore how the collaborative\, tinkering nature of global revolutions like the maker movement\, open source\, and project-based learning dovetails with girls ability to work collaboratively and in a connected way. Creating a culture and climate of inclusion and equity\, goes well beyond the lessons in a classroom or buying the right tools and technology. Culture\, both in schools and organizations\, must be co-created and supported in multiple ways and over the long term. It is not just a once a year training\, or special opportunities for girls.\n\n\n\n\nC410: A Global Revolution Goes to School: The Maker Movement\nThursday 26 January 2:00 PM – 2:40 PM \n\nLocation: \nOrange County Convention Center – North 220AB\n\n\nTrack: \nFuture of EdTech Educator\n\nThe Maker Movement is a revolutionary global collaboration of people learning to solve problems with modern tools and technology. Adults and children are combining new technologies and timeless craft traditions to create exciting projects and control their world. The implications are profound for schools and districts concerned with engaging students\, maintaining relevance\, and preparing children to solve problems unanticipated by the curriculum. The technological game-changers of 3D printing\, physical computing and computer science require and fuel transformations in the learning environment. K-12 educators can adapt the powerful technology and “can do” maker ethos to revitalize learner-centered teaching and learning in all subject areas.

SUMMARY:Public lecture - Bulgarian Academy of Sciences
DESCRIPTION:Gary and Sylvia will present a public lecture based on the book Invent To Learn: Making\, Tinkering\, and Engineering in the Classroom at the Institute of Mathematics and Informatics\, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences. \nMaking: A Way of Learning\nLearning outside of school is being transformed by the trends of tinkering\, maker culture and personal fabrication. Educators need to be mindful of this major shift in digital learning\, married to craft traditions\, and student agency to create productive contexts for learning. \nThe Maker ethos of constructionism\, or learning-by-making through first-hand experience will be explored in the context of projects using a range of analog and digital “construction” materials. Children can now use technology to create and solve their own problems. Affordable new tools and materials\, such as 3-D printers\, laser cutters\, Arduino microntrollers\, MaKey MaKey construction kits\, conductive paint and wearable computing components allow students to go farther than was imagined just a few years ago. Junk\, high-tech gear\, art supplies and engineering principles collide to expand human potential. \nArt and science converge and are amplified by computing. When the artificial boundaries between subject areas are blurred and every student requires the same process skills and tools\, the distinction between vocational and academic education are obliterated. In order for schools to seize the opportunities afforded by this “Maker” spirit\, educators need more than awareness that the world is changing. They need to develop new skills and redesign classroom environments to support learner-centered practices in order to prepare kids to solve problems their teachers never anticipated. \nAbout Gary Stager\, Ph.D.\nGary Stager is one of the world’s leading experts and advocates for computer programming\, robotics and learning-by-doing in classrooms. In 1990\, Dr. Stager led professional development in the world’s first laptop schools and played a major role in the early days of online education. In addition to being a popular keynote speaker at some of the world’s most prestigious education conferences\, Gary is a journalist\, teacher educator\, consultant\, professor\, software developer\, publisher\, and school administrator. An elementary teacher by training\, he has taught students from preschool through doctoral studies. Dr. Stager is the also founder of the Constructing Modern Knowledge summer institute for educators.\nDr. Stager is co-author of Invent To Learn – Making\, Tinkering\, and Engineering in the Classroom\, called the “bible of the maker movement in schools\,” by Larry Magid of CBS and The San Jose Mercury News.\nWhen Jean Piaget wanted to better understand how children learn mathematics\, he hired Seymour Papert. When Dr. Papert wanted to create a high-tech alternative learning environment for incarcerated at-risk teens\, he hired Gary Stager. This work was the basis for Gary’s doctoral dissertation and documented Papert’s most-recent institutional research project. \nWhen not on the road speaking or consulting\, Dr. Stager spent the past two years as the Special Assistant to the Head of School for Innovation at The Willows Community School in Culver City\, California. Dr. Stager’s work has earned a Ph.D. in Science and Mathematics Education and a Grammy Award. Gary is also on the advisory board of the NSF-funded project\, BJC4NYC: Bringing a Rigorous Computer Science Principles Course to the Largest School System in the US. \nAbout Sylvia Martinez\nSylvia works in schools around the world to bring the power of authentic learning into classrooms\, particularly in Science\, Technology\, Engineering\, and Math (STEM) subjects. Sylvia speaks\, writes\, and advocates for student-centered project-based learning\, gender equity in STEM\, computer programming\, and life-long learning. She is also President of Constructing Modern Knowledge Press\, a publishing company dedicated to bringing books about constructionist learning by educators to educators.\nPrior to co-authoring Invent To Learn: Making\, Tinkering\, and Engineering in the Classroom\, Sylvia was President of Generation YES\, a non-profit with a mission of empowering young people to improve their schools and communities with modern technology.

SUMMARY:Vilnius University Lectures
DESCRIPTION:Monday September 26\, 13-16 at Vilnius University\, Faculty of Mathematics and Informatics (master degree students and some lectures):\n1. Reinventing School Mathematics\n2. Making: a Way of Learning \nWednesday September 28\, 13-18 at Vilnius University main building (old town):\n1. Ten Considerations When Proposing Computer Science for All (all children)\n2. Why Papert Matters\n3. Reinventing School Mathematics \nReinventing School Mathematics\nIt’s Time for Action! \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. Surely\, the widespread availability of computational technology demands new pedagogical approaches and a new diet of mathematics. \nThere has never been greater interest in mathematics education\, yet there is little consensus on how best to prepare children to face an increasingly complex future. We live at a time when politicians call for an emphasis on S.T.E.M. while students dislike math\, teachers lack confidence in their mathematical ability\, achievement is static and inequitable\, computational thinking is required for navigating a successful life\, and your phone can solve every problem in the existing math curriculum – simultaneously. Seymour Papert reminds us that our efforts might be better spent inventing a diet of mathematics children can love\, than developing tricks to teach them a mathematics they hate. \nTen Considerations When Proposing Computer Science for All (all children)\nPresident Obama recently proclaimed a goal of computer science education for every student. This follows similar proclamations made around the world. Educators\, especially those committed to learning by making\, should lead the movement to teach all kids to program\, but only after goals are clarified and Computer Science for All is defined. This lecture will explore the mutually supportive nature of making and computer science education\, while cutting through the confusion associated with the latest “opportunity” being delivered to schools. Exciting examples of what computer science in a constructive context look like will be shared and 10 powerful ideas of teaching CS discussed. \nThe presenter has four decades worth of experience teaching K-12 computer science in schools across the globe and is on the advisory board of the National Science Foundation-funded\, BJC4NYC: Bringing a Rigorous Computer Science Principles Course to NYC. \nWhy Papert Matters\nThe world recently lost a great mathematician\, philosopher\, educational theorist\, inventor\, school reformer\, and freedom fighter\, Dr. Seymour Papert\, father of educational computing. Dr. Gary Stager had the good fortune of working with Dr. Papert for twenty years\, including as the principal investigator on Papert’s last major institutional research project – creating a high-tech\, multi-age\, alternative learning environment inside of a troubled prison for teenagers. He has also spent more than three decades helping schools around the world embrace forms of Papertian education\, including pioneer work in 1:1 computing and teaching programming to children. Stager also curates the Papert archives found at DailyPapert.com. \nIn this lecture\, we will explore Papert’s many contributions to education today and his vision for making the world a better place for learners in the future. \nMaking: A Way of Learning (featuring Sylvia Martinez)\nLearning outside of school is being transformed by the trends of tinkering\, maker culture and personal fabrication. Educators need to be mindful of this major shift in digital learning\, married to craft traditions\, and student agency to create productive contexts for learning. \nThe Maker ethos of constructionism\, or learning-by-making through first-hand experience will be explored in the context of projects using a range of analog and digital “construction” materials.
