I-Create Day 1 Exploration

 Using the I-Create Lab Equipment for a Computational Standard

1C: Leverage CT and CS experts, resources and professional learning networks to continuously improve practice integrating CT across content areas.

3a: Model and learn with students how to formulate computational solutions to problems and how to give and receive actionable feedback.

1e: Recognize how computing and society interact to create opportunities, inequities, responsibilities and threats for individuals and organizations.

    I saw a couple of machines that I would use for connecting different technology to the content areas. The first one is the Printing Press. The printing press they have in the I-Create Lab is from the 1800s and is a great asset to use with history. It is important for the children to see and learn about the technology of the past and how it effects technology now. It is also amazing because it can teach students about the struggles of the children of the past who had to work in factories around their own age before labor laws were enacted. Another machine I liked was the 3D printer. I would use the 3D printer to introduce geometric concepts or even for perimeter and area to students in my math class.

    Hi Allison,

    I did not get to view the printing press when we were touring the I-Create Lab. Your inclusion of the picture helped me visualize what it was because I have never seen one before. Educating students on past technologies is a great way for them to see how much has changed within the past couple hundred years. It is awesome to see the difference between the printing process and 3D printer.

    Hey Allison, I love the pictures that you included. I would include "1e: Recognize how computing and society interact to create opportunities, inequities, responsibilities and threats for individuals and organizations."

    Hey Allison love the blog! I feel another standard you could connect would be as follows:

    3a: Model and learn with students how to formulate computational solutions to problems and how to give and receive actionable feedback.

    I feel this way because this lab provides a lot of opportunities for us to encounter problems and students to solve those problems.
