Project-Based Learning Resources for the Classroom
Bringing project-based learning into your classroom can be intimidating if you don’t know where to start. In this webinar, Paul Gigliotti and Lynn Erickson, experienced educators and tech lovers, will show you the fundamentals of project-based learning and share helpful ways to engage students in performance-based tasks to connect them to real-world situations and future careers. In addition, you will gain access to lesson examples, rubrics, templates and other useful resources for implementing a project-based classroom.

The webinar will take place on Tuesday, October 1 as well as Thursday, October 24.

Surface Learning vs. Deep Learning: How Technology Can Help Students Think Deeper

Is surface learning or deep learning more important? Join educator Kelly Bielefeld in a discussion about the importance of both surface and deep learning. Too often, teachers stop at basic knowledge and students aren’t challenged to dig deeper into the content. Other times, teachers move too quickly past the surface level knowledge and students fail to transfer learning and apply it in a critical way. In this webinar, learn how various uses of technology can assist teachers in ensuring surface knowledge and transfer of learning are both attained, so students can move to higher levels of critical thinking about the content.

The webinar will take place on Tuesday, October 8 as well as Tuesday, October 29.

A Robotic Odyssey: How Robotics Is Helping Prepare Students to be Tomorrow’s Inventors, Programmers and Astronauts

Join Jim Christensen and Stephen Barker for a discussion about how robotics can help set students up to become the next generation of STEM professionals. Explore how robotics programs can help students develop an understanding of STEAM-based concepts while promoting valuable real-world skills such as communication, collaboration, creativity and critical thinking. These skills can help prepare students to take on complex STEM majors in college and careers in the future.

This webinar will take place Wednesday, October 16.
