Future of EdTech Educator
STEAM education and the maker movement intersect to create exciting changes in teaching and learning. Infusing STEAM and maker learning into literacy incorporates hands-on learning in meaningful ways. This active session will allow teachers to explore high-tech and low-tech ways to infuse design thinking, engineering, and tinkering into their classrooms by pairing children’s literature with hands-on STEAM and maker learning, promoting innovation literacy in the classroom. Participants will engage in several learning activities, collaborate with peers, and access a variety of resources.
