Write an open letter
to the local council
about issues
effecting the
environment around
the school.
In what other
plausible ways could
Shakespeare have
ended Romeo and
Juliet?
If you saw an alien,
how could you
communicate that
you mean it no
harm?
What criteria would
you use to determine
if an artistic painting
is of high quality?
Think of as many
principles of physics
you could investigate
using an egg.
What common
household objects
could you use to
make pond water
drinkable?
What criteria would
you use to select the
most aesthetic of
several different (and
safe) bridge designs?

Notas do Editor

  1. Today we'll look at how to include student-centred, flipped learning to teach not only the content, but the learning, organisational & study skills necessary for life-long learning – BY GETTING INTO ‘MAKER’ ED
  2. Kid-Learning for AdultsEx-Tertiary School of EdEx-L&D MgrSTILL consultant & trainer – networking mutantADHD (Squirrel-brained)Possible mild AspergersMORE PEOPLE LIKE ME COMING!
  3. The emphasis is on collaboration, multi-disciplinary learning, creating things and student empowerment, encouraging risk-taking and trial & error, and intrinsic motivation.

  6. The emphasis is on collaboration, multi-disciplinary learning, creating things and student empowerment, encouraging risk-taking and trial & error, and intrinsic motivation.
  7. Girls NEED STEM
  8. So what’s all the buzz about “Making”? Making is creative, innovative, inventive, collaborative, resourceful and empowering. as the popularity of Making increases, so does the interest in introducing youth to the magic of Making. People are taking note and the benefits of Maker programs for youth are being acknowledged by community organizations, educators, parents, and most importantly, the youth who are already actively involved. Heavy on the STEMHands-on is key. offer children the opportunity to build, make and create. Children make something (design process) versus doing experiments (scientific process). Programs can follow a set of planned activities, but should encourage trial and error and allow for individual creativity and experimentation. Children own their creations. When a project is completed, kids should be able to take their project home. Programs should be long enough in duration that children can immerse themselves and result in a meaningful experience. Make sharing of ideas, projects, skills and knowledge an integral part of the program. an in-school program, offered in 40-minute blocks once a week.
  9. Students explore the materials and the skills related to a topic of interest. Provided with ‘stuff to play with’, encourage them to tinker. Students come up with the QUESTIONS for the next phase.
  10. The difference with Trad. Flipped Classrooms are the content is offered AFTER tinkering – they know what they want to know more about.
  11. Students synthesize and make meaning from their experiences and concept learning. They reflect on the learning through creation.
  12. Students present their work through instructional videos to teach others, a performance or live demonstration to an audience.
