7th Annual Educational Technology Conference 11/18/16 (Keynote Address only)

7th Annual Educational Technology Conference - Keynote Adress only  

[Target audience: k-12 teachers, K-12 Technology specialist, k-12 Administration, Education Faculty and Students]

The Power of STEAM: Dr. Macaluso will be discussing what STEAM is and looks like in schools, and ways to address student creativity in STEM fields by infusing the arts. Separately she will also provide strategies to guide implementation of Next Generation Science Standards for teachers to ensure that national standards are being met. In being slightly more unconventional to common key note addresses, Dr. Macaluso will make the event interactive to demonstrate STEAM in action. Thus, teachers will better be able to grasp the foundations of STEAM as it may be applied in the classroom and be given an introduction to the key theories that are currently molding STEAM curriculum.

Dr. Stefania Macaluso is a postdoctoral fellow at Teachers College, Columbia University, and a senior professional development science coach at the Institute of Student Achievement. She holds a Master's degree in the Supervision of Science Teaching, Biology, and Bioinformatics, and a doctoral degree from Columbia University. Aside from serving as a researcher, she has also taught numerous college biology courses spanning from human anatomy to biochemistry, has led various professional development sessions, and facilitated multiple workshops on science curriculum writing, STEM/STEAM, and science literacy. Her research interests are in teacher identity development and culturally relevant pedagogy in science education. 

Participants will receive 1.5 Professional Development Hours
