Art isn't always integrated into STEAM in the most equal way, so I'm honored to coauthor: "STEAM not STEaM, Revisioned Pedagogies Prioritizing Social Justice & Eco Sustainability in STEAM Education" with Dr. Sheliza Ibrahim @strawberryjedi of @UofT. jps.library.utoronto.ca/inde…
Using brains & slide rules @peelschools GLE students at SLSS were able to leverage LIEP funded Micro:Bit's to drive servos & make moving mouth animatronics, much in the same way Disney does to follow prerecorded audio tracks. youtu.be/9AYd5ZuEiyY @peel21st
Stretching the limits of @microbit_edu with this student created moving mouth animatronic. A beep track is recorded which drives a servo.
An interesting @microbit_edu animatronic student project. An original piece of art brought to life via servo motors and 3D printed parts.
Watch a @peelschools student talk about how the South African designed Hippo Roller water transporter inspired him to invent something to combat Canada’s icy winter driveways. youtu.be/SVZTDnCcAbg #STEAM #STEM #designthinking
How might student STEAM inventions promote Ming Dynasty cultural traditions and more eco/socially just futures? Watch this @PeelSchools student discuss her 3D printed burn guard for traditional Chinese tea vessels called gaiwan. #STEM #designthinking #STS youtu.be/2bzA-kcK2do
Engineering design is in the Ontario science curriculum. Why not have students create their own culturally relevant products that are both socially & ecologically just? How might these products promote a students own values & vision of a better future? m.youtube.com/watch?v=EP1kMz…

💯! Something to mention when talking #Evolution and #Darwin(Great article👇🏽).Teaching single narratives robs Ss the truth of the history of knowledge and the rich collabrative nature of scientific discovery... and, of course, representation matters.

Code should be both socially and ecologically just! A @PeelSchools student developed an app that can sort school waste as either recycling or garbage using a machine learning AI model. See it: youtu.be/VCO1XtJDERg Try it out: apps.apple.com/app/id6443730…
Another amazing @peelschools SBI3U project. This student coded an app that uses AI to classify food containers from shops around the school as either garbage or recycling. youtu.be/VCO1XtJDERg

This is a wonderful @peelschools student SBI3U summative combining 3D modelling, biology and accessibility. #myprusastory

SNC1D0 Ss @MayfieldMavs took on the ReconciliACTION challenge round 2: they built their planned prototype & assembled the design + electrical wiring - here testing air cleansing internal mechanism that draws in a current of polluted air 💚 #designthinking
Inspired by Dr. Megan Bang's @narstorg keynote, students explored how Indigenous Ways of Knowing (which are 1000's of years old) describe reciprocal forest relationships complimenting the latest forestry research from @DrSuzanneSimard.
#SNC1W Many linear or cyclical design processes have students create abstractions out of complex problems to solve them in simplistic ways. We could instead use design processes that model compromise, and forward eco/social justice values. jps.library.utoronto.ca/inde…
Many STEM based approaches do a solid job of realizing Vision I or II science literacy. Science education can take a more critically informed, activist stance to be even more relevant for our students. researchgate.net/publication…
Honoured to present ‘Weaving Art & Science Pedagogies for More Ecologically-vital & Socially-just Dispositifs’ with my co-author @StrawberryJedi (who I met in person for the first time!) at @NARSTorg this past week. #narst2022
