STEM education is about creating a student-centered, inquiry-based classroom where students discover the natural (and real-world) connection between science, technology, engineering, and math. As educators, it is our job to keep the flame of curiosity burning bright in our students in our classrooms and throughout their lives.
This webinar will explore the most effective strategies for Inquiry-Based Instruction with a focus on how STEM education connects to the Common Core State Standards.
You will learn:
Strategies for implementing inquiry-based instruction with an emphasis on critical thinking skills.
Effective ways to apply STEM competencies to impact lesson planning and assessment with a focus on increasing real-world application of content knowledge.
How STEM education connects to the instructional shifts embedded in the Common Core State Standards.

Situational ingenuity of teachers: The key to transformative, content-focused...Joan E. Hughes, Ph.D.
This presentation was shared at a colloquium sponsored by the University of Houston, Victoria on April 28, 2014 (Please read the slide notes for generally what I said in the presentation). I share my vision for the use of digital technologies in education. I refer to it as transformative, content-focused classroom technology integration. I illustrate this concept through 3 stories of practice: from teachers, a school and its district, and a college of education. Tom is a mathematics teachers who designs a lesson with ropes, video, ipads, and graphing calculators to help students learn to write an equation for a trig function. Hilly High School began a iPad learning innovation in which all students got ipads - I share how they developed their vision which included both a technology-focus and a learning-focus. Finally, I share data on preservice teachers' use of social technologies and discuss how COEs could design a set of experiences that would develop preservice teachers to be connected educators. These will show the possibilities but also many of the challenges involved in this work. In these stories, I hope that you’ll discover ways that you, as a teacher, a school leader, a teacher educator, a parent, can assist in this transformation. I end by describing "situational ingenuity" and how I see teachers as most interested in this challenging work in their classrooms and how I see it as the key to designing content-focused, technology-supported innovations in classrooms.

Open Access: http://simon.buckinghamshum.net/2018/01/embracing-imperfection-in-learning-analytics
Abstract: Learning Analytics (LA) sits at the confluence of many contributing disciplines, which brings the risk of hidden assumptions inherited from those fields. Here, we consider a hidden assumption derived from computer science, namely, that improving computational accuracy in classification is always a worthy goal. We demonstrate that this assumption is unlikely to hold in some important educational contexts, and argue that embracing computational “imperfection” can improve outcomes for those scenarios. Specifically, we show that learner-facing approaches aimed at “learning how to learn” require more holistic validation strategies. We consider what information must be provided in order to reasonably evaluate algorithmic tools in LA, to facilitate transparency and realistic performance comparisons.
In 2007 – eight years ago- the Rocard report asked for renewing science education in Europe and advertised
inquiry based science education (IBSE) as the remedy for many problems we were facing in science education
those days. Several innovative education projects were launched and successfully implemented in many European
countries. Which lessons did we learn? Which questions do we still need to answer?

Three Keys to Engaging Parent in Student Learningcatapultlearn
One of the objectives of all educational institutions is to nurture and cultivate parents’ engagement in the academic growth of their children. Teachers and administrators in faith-based nonpublic schools must make an added, deliberate effort to engage and support the parent role as the primary educator, especially since these parents have consciously chosen to send their children to a nonpublic school.

The Literacy First Framework -- Success Storiescatapultlearn
Literacy First is not a program; it is a research-based framework of best practices and strategies designed to create a literacy rich environment that motivates and ENGAGES students in their own learning.
The Common Core and the Non-Public School—Complement or Conflict?
There is an unsettling feeling rippling through the non-public school community: “the Common Core is going to somehow compromise my institution’s integrity and identity.” For faith-based non-public schools, Common Core implementation has raised a unique set of issues that have stimulated both discussion and debate.
This webinar will cultivate a basic understanding about what the Common Core is—and what it is not—from the perspective of the non-public administrator. You will understand the basic premise and purpose of the Common Core and will come to appreciate its worth as you realize how your school’s long standing values and traditions are neither in jeopardy nor compromised by implementing the Common Core.
In this session you will learn:
How to address the challenges associated with the CCSS
The Key Elements of Leadership in implementing the Common Core
How the Common Core can complement the Mission of a faith-based school

Common Core Implementation: 3 Keys for Successcatapultlearn
Implementing the Common Core State Standards successfully means more than replacing one set of curriculum maps or pacing plans with another. The standards are important, not because of the specific topics that have to be covered at one grade level or another, but because of the vertical coherence they provide from grade to grade, the clarity and focus they provide across all grade levels, and the insistence on rigor, critical thinking, and real-world problem-solving that is embedded throughout the standards.
In other words, the standards can help us paint a picture for our students and our communities of what 21st century teaching and learning should look like.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
