BEGIN:VCALENDAR PRODID:-//github.com/rianjs/ical.net//NONSGML ical.net 4.0//EN VERSION:2.0 BEGIN:VEVENT DESCRIPTION: Would your students enjoy exploring datasets or making sim ple videogames as part of learning math\, science\, or social studies? Consider a Bootstrap professional development workshop this July! Boo tstrap provides curricular modules for integrating data science and math- aligned coding activities into middle- and high-school math and science c lasses (data science can also be used in social studies). We’re one of t he nation’s largest and longest-running projects on integrating computin g with other disciplines. We’re rated Accomplished by STEMWorks\, a natio nal assessor of STEM-oriented curricular outreach projects. Our profess ional development workshops assume no prior computing experience from te achers. Our materials use concepts from mathematical modeling and data an alysis\, which we express in small amounts of code\, to complete hands-o n projects. Our workshops teach you the modeling\, data analysis\, and c omputing needed for these projects. Most of our teachers are new to comp uting\, data analysis\, and modeling\, and leave PD surprised by what the y can do. Teachers have used our materials in many ways: put them at the beginning of the year to get students re-engaged in learning\, integrat e them into regular lessons to reinforce math concepts or deepen studies through data\, use the projects at the end of the year to help students apply what they’ve learned while exposing them to computing. Our team wi ll help you figure out what will work best for you and your students. B ootstrap: Algebra (modeling): July 19-23\, 10:30 – 4:30 EST\, $750 per te acher Bootstrap: Data Science: July 26-30\, 10:30 – 4:30 EST\, $750 per t eacher Registration opens April 28 at: https://www.bootstrapworld.org/wo rkshops/ The two workshops are independent content-wise. Each consists o f two 2.5-hour sessions each day\, one in the morning and one in the afte rnoon. Sessions will combine short instructional segments and small-grou p work (in Zoom and Zoom breakout rooms).Participants will need internet access and a device (e.g.\, computer\, laptop\, Chromebook) sufficient f or engaging with video in Zoom calls\, participating in an online discus sion forum\, and using a programming tool within a web browser. Links wi ll be provided prior to the workshop. The workshop fee includes all teac hing materials\, an initial set of student paper-and-pencil workbooks\, and long-term support from Bootstrap staff and fellow teachers.
