This elective will provide an introduction to design thinking as a basis to explore a variety of maker tools. Educators will leave with a prototype MakerEd activity for their context (classroom, library, etc.) All grade levels are welcome! Automata, the Mechanized Art EDUC 560-03 Kern 1112 Mike Beck When you engineering and art one of the possible outcomes is automata. Automata are small mechanized sculptures which engage the viewer as they turn a crank bringing the work to life. They can be used as an animated project for students to share knowledge in virtually any discipline. With some modification, this art form can be taught to all ages. Participants will create models made of common materials and recycled items for reference in their classrooms. Novel Engineering EDUC 560-05 Kern 1113 Chris Reis Engineering is a model developed through Tufts University. Through this course, teachers will use reading as a means to springboard into an engineering project. Teachers will learn how to integrate curriculum utilizing a Novel Engineering Project. Teachers will experience engineering projects themselves, as well as walk away with ideas on how to bring this back to their school setting. Filmmaking in the Classroom EDUC 560-07 Kern 1112 Michael Dragoni Through this course teachers will use filmmaking as a means of developing student learning in both STEM fields as well as language arts. Teachers will learn to use stop-motion animation, student video portfolios, video and audio editing, green screening and special effects while exploring themes relevant to their classrooms. Both Mac and Windows systems will be explored with options considered for all budgets. Absolutely no experience necessary.
