STEAM CAMP - DIY (Canvas net)

Offered by Canvas Network,

This MOOC is designed for teachers who may be interested in creating their own STEAM CAMP based upon a proven model created by Jennifer Miller and Sandra Wozniak. Their STEAM CAMP incorporated NASA MMS Challenge curriculum, authored by Jennifer Miller, Sandra Wozniak, and Tom Chambers, along with other NASA MMS fabrication resources.

To be successful in this course, participants should plan to spend approximately 3 hours per week completing activities and interacting with others. The primary audience for this course are those who wish to conduct their own STEAM Camp or after school STEAM program.
This MOOC consists of five one-week modules full of NASA MMS student resources that can be used during STEAM related educational experiences.

New Learning: Principles and Patterns of Pedagogy (Coursera)

Education

Education is in a state of flux – transitioning from traditional architectures and practices to new ecologies of teaching and learning influenced by the tremendous social and technological changes of our times. What changes are afoot today in workplaces, civic life and everyday community life? What are their implications for education? What are the possible impacts of contemporary social transformations on teaching and learning - including in the areas of technology, media, globalization, diversity, changing forms of work in the “knowledge society”, and, in these contexts, changing learner needs and sensibilities? This course explores three pedagogical paradigms: “didactic”, “authentic” and “transformative” learning.
