NCTIES2020

The goal of this session is to provide educators with science based activities through digital means which will allow for deeper understanding of content for students. This session seeks to educate participants on the use of various tools such as Google Science Journal, Google Classroom and more through active use of them throughout the session. We will use this opportunity to discuss achievable goals and creating a diverse learning environment by allowing students to design and execute their own experiments based on content to deepen student understanding. Educators will be presented with information on how to begin planning and outlining activities effectively, proper implementation strategies and troubleshooting tips. We look to advocate for the use of STEM and hands-on science as an incredible field that incorporates multiple levels of academic understanding. By increasing student collaboration and allowing individuals to combine aspects of literacy, comprehension, 21st-century skills and worldly knowledge, one can foster an environment where information is applicable, memorable and retainable. Geared toward everyone, we will provide support and ideas to allow educators a chance to see what working across digital disciplines can result in.
