PD+Workshops

For those participants who are not able to attend a conference due to county restrictions or other personal circumstances, we would like to provide an opportunity to earn pd hours through on-line collaboration.

When you attend a workshop that is related to the STEM PBL unit at school or within your county, you may participate in this wiki. Please remember that technology inservices using the equipment you were provided can be used.

After you attend the workshop, please prepare a posting to share your new found information with your colleagues.

Your goal is to share information that you learned at a conference session your colleagues were unable to attend. They are reading your post in order to get ideas to incorporate into their on STEM unit creation and implementation. The information that you provide, as well as your reflection, should be written with this in mind. Your reflection must include the following: Please title your post with the following information, and post to the discussion page linked below. [|Link to Discussion Page]
