Kahoot about MakerSpace:
Just a few questions to check your understandings about MakerSpace.
EDIT4100s Maker Education:
If you are interested to learn more about MakerSpace education, EDIT4100s will be great course for you to take. In this course, you will have opportunities to work with K-12 kids with an authentic “MakerSpace” learning experience. Please contact Ms. Gretchen Thomas for more information (gthomasuga@gmail.com).
Free-form Maker Challenge
We have seen the high-technology MakerSpace and you'll make something using some technological tools in the following days. Today we'll try the low/no technology version.
Work with a partner to select a concept that has been discussed in EDIT2000. Then use the material available to make something that can represent or be related to that concept. Be ready to share with the class what you are making and what you are trying to express through your product.
Maker Project requirements:
It is incredibly difficult to gauge how much time and effort each of you puts into a creative task. Assessing creativity seems somehow inappropriate. So here’s the best solution I can come up with when my goal is to provide you with an opportunity to truly pick something that you want to do but also make the workload equitable for everyone, regardless of choice.
After exploring maker tools – think of a project you’d like to do: design a comic strip, create a short piece of music, make a green screen video, write a piece of code using Tynker, etc. My expectation is that you’ll choose a project that will take 3 to 4 hours to complete (assuming you’re not a perfectionist).
Build your project – then, link it / add a screenshot / whatever makes sense for your project to your "Maker Project" page on your portfolio.
Write a 500-800 word reflection describing your maker experience and insert it to your "Maker Project" page. In your reflection, discuss how experiences like this might support K-12 student learning. How does this activity relate to readings on creativity and maker education? It’s never a bad idea to quote readings – especially if you decide to include references to previous week’s readings (this is a great place to talk about meaningful learning with technology or UDL.)
Don’t forget to publish your "Maker Project" page. Make sure to share your Google files (if you are using them) so that it's public.
Your maker project is due on Monday, October 7th, before class. You’ll share it at our MakerFaire that day.
Independent work da
October 2nd and 4th will be two independent work days; there will be no class. But I am available to meet with you by appointment (during class time or at another day/time) in person or online to help. You are expected to spend several hours creating your maker project and documenting your progress. Pay close attention to the assignment description listed above.
The only task due this week is a project update that you’ll post to FlipGrid. This update should be a brief overview of your progress and any questions you might have. You may or may not have some or all of your final product to share. This video must be posted by Friday, October 4th, at 10:00 pm. Go here to record your video: https://flipgrid.com/393c697. If you’re using the FlipGrid app, use the code: 393c6972.
HOMEWORK:
1. Work on your maker project. Due on Monday, October 7th, before class
2. Work on your Genius Hour project. Post #1 due October 11th, before class.
