This is Your Brain on Technology

Feedback Survey

Parents and teachers are often at odds with the children they care about most. There are misunderstandings about how to use our ubiquitous technology and how to properly balance quality face-to-face time with necessary screen time. If we want students to be able to stay focused at school and at home while using devices that provide constant temptation and distraction, we must teach them about the research behind multitasking. Learn about the latest findings on how the brain is affected when we use screen technology, and how we can use this information to empower our students to be more focused, creative, and engaged while they are learning. Find out what students say when they learn this way and how they feel about school when technology is a no longer a distraction, but rather a powerful learning tool.

Using Social Media & Creating Your Educational Brand

Feedback Survey

Educators, Schools, Programs and Departments can either tell their own stories or let someone else tell those stories for them. They can highlight the work that exemplifies their mission, or they can put the power to choose the narrative into someone else's hands, and then find their work misconstrued or unfairly criticized.

Studyo (Sponsored Session) College and life-readiness for students using Studyo

Feedback Survey

Being well organized is key to academic and life success in our day of projects and collaboration. Task management used to be in students’ hands: teachers would write tasks and due dates on the board which students would note down and manage in their paper planner.

Now, every digital platform out there is teacher centric and provides little room for students to own the process of managing their tasks and projects. Many schools still provide paper planners to compensate, but students tend to abandon them. Studyo provides modern task management tools which leverage the platforms teachers are already familiar with, such as Canvas, OnCampus and Google Classroom, with the added ability for students to manage, plan and subdivide provided tasks or add their own, developing their sense of responsibility, and building the executive function skills required in College and beyond.

The Art of Reflection in the Classroom: Using Technology to Help Students Reflect and Build on their Learning

Feedback Survey

Formal opportunities for reflection allow us to pause, look back, and analyze the points we can and should improve upon as we move forward. Great teachers regularly engage in reflection, if our first lesson of the day did not go well, we reflect back on what needs improvement and adjust to ensure that the same mistakes do not happen again. If, as teachers, we use the power of reflection to improve student learning, then it should be important to promote reflection with our students. In this session we will explore how technology can help students in the reflection process. We will look at strategies, apps, and web tools that will assist students in the reflection process, and allow them to grow as learners.

Bird is the Word: Project Based Learning in Action

Feedback Survey

Want to see a real-life example of Project-Based Learning? Come explore a cross curricular project and hear from science, ELA, and special education teachers. We will detail the process that our students went through in our classrooms to create a high-quality product. In the spring of 2107 the students on the 7 Green Team at Oak Middle School in Shrewsbury, MA partnered with the Mass Audubon Society at Broad Meadow Brook to create field guide materials for their annual fundraising event called the “Bird-a-Thon”. Each student was responsible for researching a bird that could be spotted during the event and creating informational materials about that bird. Students became experts on ecological relationships and the role that their bird plays in the ecosystem and expanded their research and literacy skills. Additionally, students engaged in the design thinking process to analyze existing field guides, assess the needs of the participants of the Bird-a-Thon, brainstorm, prototype, and ultimately create their own materials for the event. During this project students used a variety of apps and tools including: Google Slides to create a book and pamphlets, Google Docs to organize research, Notability to create images, and Adobe Spark to create websites. We will walk you through the process that our students followed and you will leave understanding how our students created a product that had a purpose beyond the school walls.

Robot Meets Human: The Heart is a Digital Kickdrum

Feedback Survey

What Defines a Human in an Age of AI? Is it love over fear, empathy over disconnection? What defines us is what sets us apart from the machines, even as we build them—and, it’s these traits that will become increasingly important for learners as we embrace new technologies and ways of approaching everything from data analysis to problem-solving to creative expression.
This “EdThought” Big Ideas session looks into the design and flourishing of our greatest asset—our humanity. In the Age of AI, what makes us human becomes all the more essential, critical to our communication, creativity and true consequence, as we couple with machines. We’ll blend in some storytelling, robotics, design and mindfulness in this hyper-real session that steps through the looking glass into animated wonderlands and dreamscapes.

Where are the girls? Gender Inclusion in EdTech

Feedback Survey

Including more girls and women in the edtech field is a complex problem, and mentors, coaches, teachers, allies, and advocates are essential collaborators in the solution. We’ll unpack some of the staggering statistics: fewer than 20% of AP computer science test-takers are female, females leave the tech industry at twice the rate as males, and fewer than 15% of bachelor's degree in computer science are awarded to women. Next we’ll explore what is working nationally to reverse this trend, and discuss local implementation of strategies. Educators working in schools and out of school to design elementary, middle, and high school learning opportunities that engage girls and women in tech are invited to join this session. Participants will also have time to share their own solutions, and network with others who are eager to tackle this critical issue.

Catch the Hyperdoc Fever

Feedback Survey

Seeking ways to engage and empower learners while teaching them lifelong skills can be hard with today’s classroom. My students were bored, reading similar stories from our reading program. I felt like there was so much more I could be teaching them each week, but I was tied to my guided reading group. I reshaped my literature block and breathed new life into the classroom while personalizing learning. By creating hyperdocs to go along with stories, students are now able to work at their own pace both independently and collaboratively. They are accessing the GSuite in exciting ways, smashing various tools together in one hyperdoc. The literature they are reading is brought to life, and learning experiences are not only enriching but also authentic. I am freed up to have conversations with kids about books. The energy in the classroom has shifted, and a community of learners is being built. Hyperdocs can be created in any content area or to teach specific skills such as research or digital citizenship. It is important to know this is not a digital worksheet, rather a pedagogical revolution that brings learning to life. In this session we will explore hyperdocs in the content areas K-12 that are already created, learn about the process to create hyperdocs, and then have some time for attendees to make their own hyperdocs to support learning in the classroom. Teachers will leave with ideas to implement the next school day! Atendees will see how to not only implement various GSuite tools, but discover a plethora of apps and extensions to support learning. Programs such as Flipgrid and BrainPOP will also be included.

Making that Matters: Projects for the Real World and Real Audiences

Feedback Survey

The growing Maker Movement has led to an increasing emphasis on hands-on, construction-oriented learning in schools today. While the “What” of maker education is now clear, the “How” is still emerging and, excitingly, ever evolving! Educators often express their desire for additional resources to implement making in their classroom. This session will address how one district, the Mendon-Upton Regional Schools, is approaching maker education through the development a maker culture that yields a process and products that are meaningful and relevant to students. Presenters will first discuss their underlying beliefs about maker education and the importance of growing a maker culture in one’s classroom and school. Next, they will outline the pedagogical practices and models that inform their planning process. MURSD educators integrate aspects of design thinking, Connected Learning, Personal Digital Inquiry and project-based earning to design, iterate, revise and share student work with the community. The session will conclude with examples of how students and teachers have created products that travel beyond classroom walls, around the world and even into outer space! Featured maker projects include Nipmuc Regional High School’s Raspberry Pi Composting Project and Weather Balloon PongSatelite launch, Miscoe Hill Middle School’s STEAM PBL Though Art, and the Memorial Elementary School’s Virtual Tour for Friends in San Sebastian, Spain and much more. Participants will leave the session with remixable plans that can be implemented in their own classrooms.

Teaching Media Literacy in an Era of Fake News

Feedback Survey

We hear a lot in the news about “fake news,” but that term, which was coined fairly recently, is really a symptom of some much larger problems, including the lack of media literacy in a digital age where information is instant. In fact, Stanford Graduate School of Education recently found that more than 80% of middle and high school students were unable to distinguish between advertisements and real news stories. As parents and educators, it’s our job to help our learners become more savvy consumers of information.

Based on ConnectSafely’s Parent and Educator Guide to Media Literacy and Fake News, this session will include advice from educators, journalists, media literacy experts, and emotional intelligence researchers on how to bring critical media literacy skills to your classroom/home so that our children are able to make informed decisions about the information that bombards them every day.

Fostering Creativity with iPad

Feedback Survey

Fostering Creativity with iPad shows educators how to engage students in the creative process using multiple iOS apps in a connected workflow. We will explore Apple’s creativity suite of apps and innovative ways to use them on the iPad.

Cultivate student curiosity and let creativity blossom with iPad. Versatile and mobile, iPad includes apps and features that let educators and their students write, record, sketch, and gather inspiration from others and the world around them. And when multiple apps and features come together in a connected workflow, educators and their students have all the tools needed to share compelling learning stories as poets, engineers, musicians, and filmmakers.

This session is designed to help educators show their students how they can use iPad to support creativity. It focuses on three phases of the creative process—brainstorming, gathering inspirational resources, and telling compelling stories—that can help make learning more meaningful for students. Educators will find this process helpful in establishing a structure that will foster creativity in their classrooms and allow their students the freedom to use iPad to express learning in innovative ways.

Looking for Knowledge? Google Your Brain!

Feedback Survey

Few empirical studies may be more detrimental to advancements of effective technology use in K-12 education than the Mueller and Oppenheimer (2014) as well as Carter, Greenberg, and Walker (2016) reports. Both empirical studies assert that students in lecture-style courses perform worse on assessments when allowed to use technology in the classroom. However, neither study mentions any instruction provided to students to help them capitalize on the tools in front of them! Too often, educators project their own reading and note taking habits onto their students, applying paper-based strategies to digital texts. However, what if we actually considered digital reading and note taking as a completely new task? When students can harness the power of tagging, searching, and sharing as a new way to approach how they interact with course content, they will be able to ask better questions, build stronger connections, and engage in deeper inquiry. Ultimately, students need to not only be able to search for knowledge across disparate sources, but also within their own brains.

Advancing Creative Mindsets

Feedback Survey

Are you wrestling with these questions: Now what? What can we do with these devices? How do you encourage staff to innovate? How do you reflect? How do we make sure we are not just using "expensive pieces of paper"? How do you proceed? We will walk participants through our process of answering this essential question - "How Can We Cultivate and Curate the Progression of Student Learning and Growth?" This session is aimed towards both building-based secondary-level educators, administrators, and district administrators who are exploring or are involved in the implementation of a mobile learning initiative. Through the voice of administrators, teachers and students, participants will experience first hand how Blake Middle School engaged students and educators in the transformation from a computer lab/wireless cart model to the 1:1 environment.

By following four core principles (Program Development, Classroom/Curriculum Implementation/Integration, Professional Development, and Reflection/Evaluation), students and educators from Blake Middle School have brought an engaging student-centered model to fruition. This session will zoom in on two of these core principles… Classroom/Curriculum Implementation/Integration (Student/Teacher demonstrations across curricula demonstrating the applications of the program; Fostering creativity/redefinition and reflections/curation via student portfolios) Professional Development Structure (ETT, common planning, internal structures, appropriate staffing)

Participants will walk away with a framework to help address these questions, highlighting our approach to thematic professional development, a culture of collaboration, student creativity, purposeful learning, and digital citizenry. We will exhibit our methods of transparency and communication with the parents and greater community, philosophy of mistakes, and professional development model. The lessons we learned, and approach we took as a team to enhance the learning for our students, will hopefully help with sharing our approach, successes, mistakes, and process of growth.

Mindful by Design

Feedback Survey

What does it mean to design learning in a mindful way? From real life to virtual worlds, modern mindful presence and learning is all about choice, encompassing curiosity and self-awareness. We are constantly faced with the question of how to "be present”—to connect in a meaningful way.
This workshop looks at three prime focus areas: mindfulness, design thinking and storytelling, illuminating learning across, between and beyond curriculum.
We’ll talk about the “how” and the “why” of using practices in mindfulness and presence, as well as technology such as virtual and augmented reality, to sharpen awareness, focus, and creativity. We are no longer "cogs in a system", operating in a traditional factory input-output schema. We (as well as our ideas!) are inter-related, thriving in a neural network of connections, and many different layers of meaning and context. We can now creatively embrace many interactive methodologies as part of complex learning, using them in ways that support engaging, empathetic, meaningful understanding, context and growth. Best of all, for those of us who are “hacks and hackers”, problem-solvers and designers, we adopt solutions-based approaches that keep our own minds empathetic and flexible. We begin to see, quite truly, that no (hu)man is an island. The advantage of a connected mindset, with mindful awareness, is core to “Mindful by Design” thinking and interrelated systems, with a better world in focus.

Exploring Augmented Reality in EDU

Feedback Survey

The easily accessed computer vision of smartphones, tablets, and wearable devices is a growing phenomenon inside schools and out. The power of the camera spans from photography and video, to quick and easy digitalization, to QR code readers, to various forms of augmented reality. These ocular recognition technologies can create opportunities for students to make connections between the physical and digital worlds, and to create engaging and interactive physical and digital projects. This session will expose attendees to a number of augmented reality technologies, and leave educators with practical ideas for incorporating student-created AR projects in their classrooms.

Experience the Student Designed Live Action Portfolio: Open Studio

Feedback Survey

In this hands-on workshop, you will experience what it is like to participate in a student-led open studio. It was born out of a desire to have a more integrated approach to curricular development. Classroom teachers began working collaboratively with technology integrationists, librarians, learning specialists, and art teachers to change their thematic curriculum to a student-centered approach. Students used the design thinking process to create a new format for presenting their learning to the larger school community. The process began by researching other open studios in the Boston area and developing a prototype for a new form of assembly. The open studio replaced the traditional on-stage performance and became a live-action portfolio. Students engaged guests of all ages from our community in interactive activities, presenting their third-grade journey through artifacts and original creations, and sharing the lessons they had learned about themselves as learners. The students defined their open studio as a “student-centered, creative atmosphere where we share and reflect on our experiences and journey through third grade.” See examples from the open studio and talk to the teachers that were involved. There will be time for questions and answers, as well as tips for implementation in your school.

Science for All!: Using IPads and Osmos to Open the doors to Vocabulary, Background Knowledge and Equity.

Feedback Survey

For English Language Learners (ELLs), science can be a confusing mass of unknown vocabulary and unclear instruction. In today's elementary classrooms, science instruction is delivered primarily through English Language Arts and requires children, regardless of their English language literacy, to comprehend grade-level materials. This effectively closes the door to science literacy for children who are still learning English. This can also have a broad impact on whole communities with high numbers of ELLs, leaving them without access to the science knowledge and skills that can empower. Additionally, it can shut out young learners from possible futures in stable and rewarding STEM fields. Science instruction without support, solely through ELA, is an issue of equity. This presentation will share a program created by University Education Faculty and Title I classroom teachers to support ELL and special education students in the use of iPad apps and Osmos. Our goal for the collaboration was to make science fun and accessible to 4th and 5th graders while at the same time building vocabulary and providing background knowledge. We will share our successes and a few lessons learned. IPad Apps and strategies for integrating Osmos to support ELLs and special education students in the classroom will also be shared.
