Science of Hope in CS - Shannon Thissen and Kim Hetrick

Creating a Classroom of Thinkers - Molly Brinkley
Learn how to integrate computational thinking practices into the elementary classroom. Many activities involving computational thinking occur on a daily basis without us realizing it. Help foster a love of learning with students.
Integration Possibilities with Paper Circuits (3-12) - Katherine Livick
A quick overview of the why and what (and a tiny bit of the how) of integrating paper circuits into your curriculum, elementary through high school. Engineer & engage with inexpensive materials!
Session 2: 5:30 - 6:00
HTML Tools for Reflection - Shannon Thissen
Reflection as a process is extremely useful for learners. Going through stages of conscious reflection allows for deeper learning, as learners ponder upon their performance and learn from experiences. Using HTML as a way to take notes gives students a new way to make taking notes fun.
