A K-20 Creative Design Approach to Addressing Problems of Practice in a Futur...Anita Zijdemans Boudreau
Presented at the EdTech Teacher Summit, San Diego February 2016 & ORATE, WOU February 26, 2016
Learning teams work at their best when diverse perspectives, expertise, and skill sets from across all levels of the educational community unite to imagine creative ways for tackling authentic, context-specific challenges. This session describes a K-20 collaborative partnership approach to identifying and addressing problems of practice related to technology integration in schools. A creative design team—comprised of in-service teachers, pre-service teachers, a university faculty instructor, school administrator, and library & information technology teacher (LITT)—was developed to help advance the school's Future Ready mission to "maximize digital learning opportunities and help school districts move quickly toward preparing students for success in college, a career, and citizenship" (see: http://futureready.org/). Iterative design thinking was used to:
• establish a common understanding of specific challenges faced by teachers in the school;
• research, generate insights, and ideate solutions for how to address the problems using technology;
• develop and implement prototypes across different classrooms; and
• evaluate what worked and share the outcomes with the broader school community.
Some project outcomes included exploring apps for differentiating instruction, creating an open educational resource (oer) for digital citizenship, and organizing an 'hour of code' event school wide.
Explore how educators can infuse authentic project-based learning into the classroom to promote deeper student thinking and the development of critical life skills. Discover technologies that can help students take ownership of their learning as they demonstrate understanding of content.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

2. Careers in STEM provide opportunity What are
they?
• Online, on-demand interactive
virtual field trips
• Behind-the-scenes tours to
• Explore technology used in the
real-world
• Discover careers
• Hosted on Kahoot! a game-based
learning platform that allows
students to watch videos and
interact by answering trivia and
participating in polls
5. It started as two separate programs
FC Tours - Amazon tour program that offered
public tours at some of our Fulfillment centers
Amazon Future Engineer - philanthropic program
with a goal of providing equitable access to
Computer Science (CS) education and operates in
the U.S, India, UK, Germany, and Canada
2019
7. Teacher feedback showed a need
1. “We can’t take field trips any more”
2. “We need fresh relevant content that works online”
3. “We need content that connects to the real-world”
8. Could our online tours address barriers to
career education?1
1. Lack of support and time to develop formal links with employers
• Tours do not require teacher to manage or develop any relationship with
employer
2. School does not have a coordinator to drive career activities
• Teacher can access tours directly
3. Cost of organizing events
• Tours are free, no cost to school or teacher and accessible from any location
with internet
1. Kashefpakdel et al. (2019) Career-related learning in primary
9. We invited CS teachers to try it out with their
classes and collected feedback
Dec 2020
10. Teacher feedback influenced product design
1. “Connect it to our curriculum”
• Aligned to standards by adding concepts and terminology teachers needed to
teach in CS courses
2. “Give us a teacher toolkit with activities we can do with the class
before and after the tour”
• Created a downloadable teacher toolkit
3. “Can we meet the employees who built the technology?”
• Added videos featuring employees in different roles to help students learn
about their jobs
11. We researched known issues and best
practices
1. There is still a lack of gender, racial, and ethnic diversity in STEM1
2. Students with CS role models are over 10X more likely to pursue CS
careers than those without2
3. Children as young as five have developed stereotypes about jobs
people do based on gender, ethnicity and social background3
4. Centering science lessons on phenomena can make science more
relevant and interesting to students.4
• Students and teachers alike were familiar with the concept of selecting ‘Place
your order’ on the Amazon website but did not understand how technology and
people work together to deliver the customer order.

12. Our first Tech Tour had arrived
The tours were
offered to CS
teachers in Canada
and the U.S.
The tours ran out
of Fulfillment
Centers in the U.S.
Spring 2021
13. It was so popular we translated the toolkit and
script to add French tours
The tours ran out
of Fulfillment
Centers in the U.S.
and France
The tours were offered
to CS teachers in
Canada, the U.S., and
France
Fall 2021
14. Feedback and research identified room to
improve
1. “It doesn’t fit into the block of time I have for my class”
2. “It’s too early/late in the day”
3. Lack of flexibility in crowded curriculum is a barrier to career
education1
4. “ You recommend it for grades 5+ but I’d like to use it for younger
students”
5. “There are so many students in the tour that students don’t really
get to interact much beyond answering trivia questions in the chat”
6. “The live video was pixelated, couldn’t see the video properly”
1. Education and Employers (2021) Starting Early Building the foundations for success
15. We created a pre-recorded interactive tour
• Hosted on Kahoot! a classroom engagement tool with widespread
teacher adoption which increased awareness of the tour
• Added trivia questions to keep it interactive
• Kept interviews with tech employees selected from communities
historically underrepresented in STEM to address stereotypes
• Offered as one 45-60 minute experience or as two 20-30 minute
experiences to better fit class schedules
• Created one version for primary and one for secondary to better
meet needs of different age groups
Fall 2022
16. The learning continues…
1. Tours work best when you show the actual technology instead of
using animations
2. When creating tours, start from standards such as CSTA and NGSS to
guide tour learnings
3. Students and teachers enjoy seeing student hosts in addition to
adult experts
4. Career video should connect to the content of the tours and include
their personal career path
5. Showcase alternate career paths where possible
6. Videos that are shorter with more frequent interaction points keep
students more engaged
7. Tours work best when there is a narrative that threads throughout
the tour and ties the various stops together
17. Now we can scale!
• Partnered with NASA to create Callisto: Space Innovation Tour
• Localizing the Robotics Fulfillment Center tours for use in other
countries
• In development of Cloud Computing and Data Center Tour
• Rebranded to Career Tours so we have the ability to expand the
careers and tours offered
• Complete and publish research with Gallup on U.S. Careers of the
Future to help us prioritize careers to feature in future tours
(coming mid-June)
