Course Description:
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.
