DESCRIPTION
We’ve seen how music and video can be infused into the classroom to create engaging learning experiences that encourage collaboration. What other techniques can we utilize to captivate our students’ interest? Throughout the week we will embark in playful, interconnected learning that inspires creativity. Today we will start by observing STEM through the “C”s of 21st century skills. We will see how educators are utilizing technology to collaborate and tackle their biggest challenges. We will also participate in community-driven experiences that demonstrate the power of digital, mobile, and social learning.TRANSCRIPT
