Moodle/STEM Share Fair and Summit Thursday, March 25 from 3:30 - 7:00 PM
This exciting event is brought to you by The Learning Curve and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. This event begins with a Moodle Showcase during which you will see Moodle sites developed by elementary and secondary school teachers from Worcester, Diman Tech, Freetown-Lakeville, Medford and others. Special feature - videos of middle and high school students using Moodle. Then you will hear from MIT professionals who have developed digital content that can be "moodlized" right into your own Moodle course sites. Save preparation time by taking advantage of this free science and math content. The event will close with an informal session during which you will be able to interact with moodling teachers and MIT presenters. Refreshments, too! This is a free event for members of The Learning Curve Consortium, but you must register. $50 for non-members. More details at www.thelearningcurve.org.

This professional development course will introduce PreK- 5 grade teachers to engineering and thinking skills (tools for engineering) in an interdisciplinary project based learning environment. The program uses the engineering design process, as defined in the Massachusetts Science Framework, as a connector between students’ literature and their mathematics and science curricula. It infuses the development of thinking strategies with creative and critical thinking, provocative questions and meta-cognitive reflection, skills that are part of the engineering process. This approach is based on the definition, “Engineering is about designing useful products & processes for society using all disciplines, but mainly science & mathematics”.
Mr. Leo's English for Speakers of Other Languages class will stress writing and center around the Journal which is part of the Moodle course site. I will correct your writing and base grammar work for you based on my analysis of your writing. I have constructed a series of 23 mini-tests which will be helpful in this process. The course comes as close to individualized instruction as I can make it. Therefore enrollment must be restricted to no more than ten students.
Course sharing resources for Consortium members: One of the benefits of belonging to The Learning Curve Consortium is that you have access to additional features even after you have completed the Moodle course. One of these features is the availability of Moodle content and courses provided by consortium members. This is a members only feature. Login is required.
