Collab Lab 36: Experiments for Distance Learning
How might students become part of the solution for distance learning? We're working with schools on two experiments for the Covid 19 era. The first is to understand what it takes to enable student-led tech support for distance learning technology. The second is to explore how a student led effort might tap upcycled material from industry to create kits and manipulatives for hands-on engineering and math at home. For this session we'll give a quick overview of each effort and…

Collab Lab 37: A Lending Library for STEM Resources
Resources for hands on STEM activities can get expensive. At the same time, they may only be used for part of a semester. What would it look like if you could borrow the resources you need from a STEM Lending Library? You may already have acquired resources that often sit idle. What would make it worthwhile to loan those to colleagues? In this session our discussion will focus on what this might look like for resources to support robotics in K-12. Come share your thoughts and ideas. Let's see if we can make something happen!
