STEM All-Stars Posted on October 28th, 2015 by Mary Lord Who are top all-star “hitters” in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math? Spinning off the concept of baseball trading cards, DuPont celebrated the 25th anniversary of its student essay writing contest by creating a series of STEM collectible trading cards. Featured thus far: Stephen Hawking (above: physicist and cosmologist)Ellen Kullman (above: mechanical engineer and Dupont’s first woman President and CEO)Sosinna M. Inspired? Enter the 30th anniversary DuPont Challenge©, an essay writing contest for students in middle and high school that gives out $100,000 in awards, with top winners receiving an expenses-paid trip to Orlando, Florida, to visit Walt Disney World and NASA’s Kennedy Space Center. All entries must be submitted by January 31, 2016. Previous winning essays include such titles as “Can a Potato Chip Revolutionize Architecture and Save Lives?” Filed under: Competitions and Contests, For Teachers, Special Features
The Science Spot We started using GPS and GIS with our 5th-8th grade students during the 2005-2006 school year. I will post new lessons and activities as they are developed. If you have any ideas to share, please e-mail them to me. Need training in GPS & GIS technology? GPS Hide & Seek Students use GPS receivers to mark hiding spots for "treasures" and challenge other teams to find them. Mapping the Refuge During this activity, students use GPS receivers to mark an observation spot at our local wildlife refuge and record data and observations to compare the seasonal changes in our area. GPS Artists During this activity, students use GPS receivers to "write" their initials or draw a simple diagram. GPS Logic Challenge During this activity, students work in groups and use GPS receivers to locate various waypoints in our schoolyard. Mystery Bug Challenge I use this activity at the end of our insect unit. Earth Quest My parter and I developed this activity for our Science Club kids to celebrate Earth Day.
Why Kids Should Make the Video Games They Love to Play When educator Lynn Koresh hears from kids that they want a career doing something with computers, she asks, “To do what with computers?” Adults often encourage kids to pursue science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) skills, and computing classes are usually a first stop. But Koresh knows it’s the real-world applications of computational thinking and coding language skills that bring such knowledge to life. She reasoned that most middle school students are already playing video games and might respond well to a unit on how to design, create, test and promote video games. Along the way, she’s also teaching them about digital citizenship and entrepreneurship. “I wanted to give kids exposure to what it means to have a career using computers,” said Koresh, technology coordinator at Edgewood Campus School in Madison, Wisconsin. She gave students the task of designing a game using Gamestar Mechanic. As students develop their games, they test them on one another throughout the semester.

The Ultimate STEM Guide for Kids: 239 Cool Sites Blogfolios: The Glue that Can Hold it All Together in Learning | Silvia Tolisano- Langwitches Blog Digital Portfolios are so much more than a digital versions of a paper portfolio, a folder sent home at the end of the week, semester or year or an online version of someone’s writing journal. In addition, I am talking about Blogfolios, which are digital portfolios on a blogging platform. These blogfolios are: not behind a password protected wall to encourage authentic feedback and a global audiencenot only sharing the “best” work of someone, but the process of learning that it took to get to the “best” work in this moment in timethe platform to allow open discussion to have one’s work be critiqued, influenced, re-mixed and built upon by others If I had to create a “pitch” for Blogfolios, I would say: Blogfolios are the glue that can hold it all together! Blogfolios are a pedagogical tool/platform for the teacher to facilitate learning and at at the same time can become in critical component for a heutagogical (self-directed/ self-motivated) process for the learner.

Teaching Kids to Code | EdSurge Guides Every era demands—and rewards—different skills. In different times and different places, we have taught our children to grow vegetables, build a house, forge a sword or blow a delicate glass, bake bread, create a soufflé, write a story or shoot hoops. Now we are teaching them to code. We are teaching them to code, however, not so much as an end in itself but because our world has morphed: so many of the things we once did with elements such as fire and iron, or tools such as pencil and paper, are now wrought in code. In this collection we share many different perspectives on coding, from a university professor's vantage point (MIT's Mitch Resnick describes why learning to code is like learning to learn) to an entrepreneur's reflections from his cross-country roadtrip to bring coding—and his stuffed dog—to classrooms across the U.S. You can learn to code on your own by dipping into one of over 40 tools for learning to code that we've compiled (check out the bottom of this page).

Subjects - Extreme Weather No matter where you live in the world, weather is something that you are exposed to every single day. Even though weather occurs all around the world, the region you live in can have a different natural phenomenon than another geographical locations. For example, if you live in the Midwest of the United States, it isn't very likely that you'll get hurricanes but you may be very familiar with tornados. Why is it sunny most of the year in some places and rainy in other places? What causes tsunamis and earthquakes? Learning more about what causes these forces of nature can help us to be better prepared when they happen. Even though weather is different all around the world, our weather systems are all very interconnected. Articles Events Activities Cool Jobs Advocacy
9 great free activities for Hour of Code Annual Hour of Code, during Computer Science Education Week, encourages educators and students to participate in one hour of coding Computer science skills have enjoyed more time in the spotlight as educators, policymakers and celebrities tout the importance of coding and programming skills. This year’s Hour of Code reinforces computer science’s growing importance. The Hour of Code asks students, teachers, and anyone who is interested to devote at least one hour to coding during Computer Science Education Week (Dec. 7-11). Participants can choose from guided tutorials or can join in scheduled Hour of Code activities that education or community groups have organized. According to Code.org, the group behind the Hour of Code, there will be 1 million more computer science jobs than students by 2020, based on Bureau of Labor Statistics projections. Following are 9 resources to help students and educators participate in the Hour of Code during Computer Science Education Week.
