Code, Craft, & StoryTelling - an Adventure in STEAM

Gail Tate

3:00 pm to 3:30 pm

What has been the biggest challenge for students during this unprecedented time in education? How do we keep our students engaged, excited, and creative even when using a virtual platform to teach technology? Can learning how to code help our students build community and connectedness even during a pandemic? These are the kinds of questions we hope to answer when sharing some techniques we used in our recent program ""Code, Craft, and Storytelling"". Our integration of computer science, design, art, and writing can be used in a virtual or in a person-to-person education platform. We will illustrate and have you experience firsthand a sample of projects that expand Design Thinking, Imagination, and Invention....while you learn the basics of block programming. Our workshop will use the open-source block programming language from Microsoft called MakeCode. Come prepared to have an interactive experience*!
