Yesterday, the TIS team trained staff members on “The Three Tiers of Technology Integration” in order to pass along information we had received during the TCEA “Texas Steps Up” Training with Monica Martinez.
In his post on 21st Century Ed Tech and Learning, Gorman has compiled a comprehensive list of resources for teachers to use in classroom for PBL and STEM. He also includes a short list of free software that supports STEM-based PBL.
It can seem at a glance that the resources found in this post are dedicated to the upper-level grades, but please do look further! I am a novice blogger, and my very first post this year was about BIE, The Buck Institite for Education. This site has rubrics for the primary grades as well as a comprehensive library of activities from which teachers can pull or use as a launching point for ideas. This library can be searched by subject and level and may be a great place to start, so…..let’s get started! And let me know how I can help!
