Join us for a one day professional development opportunity! This mini-conference is geared towards ALL Indiana teachers!
During this one-day event, Indiana teachers, IU faculty, and preservice teachers will lead workshop-style breakout sessions, introducing and sharing their classroom experiences and lessons.
Strands included:
Pre-service teachers
Proposals in this strand will include ideas, management strategies, tips, and lessons that a pre-service educator can implement in their science classroom or elementary classroom to ensure that the teaching of science standards is being met.
STEM
This strand will encompass ideas, lessons, and classroom tested ideas that include two or more of the STEM domains and that could be easily replicated in other classrooms.
Science and the Science of Reading
This strand will include proposals that help elementary and middle school teachers include science in Science of Reading lessons. Proposals should show the connection between science and literacy and include children’s literature and hands-on science activities.
AI
Proposals in this strand will address the use of AI in the classroom. Proposals can share innovative ways that AI is being used in the classroom, tips for use, the environmental impacts of AI use, and responsible use practices.
