SUMMARY:COSN 2019 - ENVISION 2030: LEADERSHIP FOR LEARNING
DESCRIPTION:Sylvia Martinez will be a spotlight speaker at ENVISION 2030: LEADERSHIP FOR LEARNING – the COSN Annual Conference. \nSTEAM to the Future: What’s Next in STEAM\, Design\, and Making\n9:15 AM – 9:45 AM: Breakout\nRoom: Atrium Ballroom (Hilton Portland Downtown)\nFormat: Spotlight Session\nPresenters: Sylvia Martinez\, Columbia University FabLearn Fellows\, Principal Advisor\n\n\nBrief Session Description: Let’s time travel a few decades forward to see what science\, technology\, engineering\, and math will be like\, and the prominent role that the arts\, design \,and creativity will play in the future. Right now\, scientists and engineers are creating a future where biology and engineering mix with computation and computer science. The future holds things like driverless cars\, buildings that heal themselves\, “radical mycology\,” which are plastics that adopt organic properties from mushrooms\, clothes that adjust to the weather\, robots\, Artificial Intelligence\, and holodeck-like experiences that will bend the definition of reality. However\, this fourth industrial revolution is not some far away abstraction\, all of these futuristic visions will depend on the ingenuity and creativity of people who are K-12 students today. We owe it to them to teach them how to make\, design\, and create using the most modern technology in their STEAM classes today. \nWhat are the implications for K-12 education when subjects are being reinvented every year? Are we content with providing students with science classes that don’t cover any science invented this century? What questions do education leaders need to answer to make sure that the future of STEAM is part of schools starting today.

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.

SUMMARY:STEM Class of 2019 – Invent To Learn with Emerging Technology
DESCRIPTION:2019 promises great opportunities for physical computing and coding featuring remarkable new technologies. This workshop will introduce remarkable new technologies that may be used today to amplify the potential of each learner and expand the breadth\, depth\, and range of projects possible. \n \nLearn how Scratch 3.0\, micro:bits\, Hummingbird Bit robotics kit\, Circuit Playground Express\, Microsoft Makecode\, microblocks\, and other emerging technology can supercharge project-based learning across the curriculum. Not only is it unprecedented for as much computational power to be accessible to children and usable in a playful creative fashion\, but the low cost of these materials democratize powerful learning opportunities. These technologies and related constructive materials create great opportunities to bring progressive education ideals to life in any school. They also provide a fertile context for learning coding\, engineering\, and physical computing. During the workshop\, we will also discuss how such technologies may be used to address the Digital Learning Technologies curriculum effectively. \n \nThe workshop is being hosted by one of our favourite and most progressive schools. It is less than a 5-minute walk from the Clifton Hill Train Station and 10-minute walk from the Route 86 Tram Stop on Queen’s Parade. Street parking is available. Lunch is included in the registration fee. \nBring a laptop and your imagination. We’ll supply the rest!\nSpace is limited! \n \nDate:\n2 November 2018\n9:00 AM – 3:00 PM \nLocation:\nSpensley Street Primary School\n193 Spensley St\nClifton Hill VIC 3068 \nCost:\n$400 (AUD)\nNote: The online web registration site will charge $285 (USD)\nCredit cards only please for simplicity purposes \nWho should attend? \n\nPrimary school educators with basic computer skills (saving and finding files\, trackpad/mouse use)\nTech directors\nTech coaches\nTech coordinators/directors\nArt teachers\nSecondary technology\, design\, art\, science\, maths\, or computer science educators with basic computer skills (saving and finding files\, trackpad/mouse use)\n\nAbout the presenter\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. Gary is the founder of the Constructing Modern Knowledge summer institute for educators. \nDr. Stager is co-author of [easyazon_link identifier=”0989151107″ locale=”US” tag=”neweasyazon-20″]Invent To Learn – Making\, Tinkering\, and Engineering in the Classroom[/easyazon_link]\, called the “bible of the maker movement in schools\,” by Larry Magid of CBS and The San Jose Mercury News. Legendary educator/author Herbert Kohl called [easyazon_link identifier=”0989151107″ locale=”US” tag=”neweasyazon-20″]Invent To Learn: Making\, Tinkering\, and Engineering in the Classroom[/easyazon_link] “a persuasive\, powerful\, and useful reconceptualization of progressive education for digital times.” \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.\n\n  \nDr. Stager’s work has earned a Ph.D. in Science and Mathematics Education and contributed to the winning of a Grammy Award. \nGary 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. \nIn addition to his many accomplishments\, Gary Stager is a licensed preschool – eighth grade teacher\, has made numerous visits to Reggio Emilia\, and has worked closely with several of its leading educators.
