1. Technology Integration for the New 21st Century Learner Scratch Projects

2. Miguel Lara, PhD Assistant Professor Computer Science CSUMB Introductions Michael B. Scott, PhD Associate Professor Mathematics CSUMB

3. Agenda Technology Integration & 21 st Century Skills Introduction to MIT Scratch Finding Scratch project for Math topics Creating a Scratch project

4. Objectives Describe how Scratch could help K-6 students acquire 21 st Century Skills Identify Scratch resources that could be used in your class Create an interactive Scratch project

5. Technology Integration Computers are just a tool, not a subject "We don't have a paper-and-pencil lab" (Matthew Gudenius, sixth-grade teacher, TIME October 2014) CS is becoming integral to many fields: http://news.stanford.edu/news/2014/march/facsen-joint- majors-030614.html http://news.stanford.edu/news/2014/march/facsen-joint- majors-030614.html http://news.stanford.edu/news/2014/march/facsen-joint- majors-030614.html Technology can engage students in difficult topics

6. 21 st Century Skills Critical Thinking Communication Creativity Collaboration

7. "Scratch" allows kids creating programs, interactive stories, games, and animations. By learning to code in Scratch, kids learn important strategies for solving problems, designing projects, and communicating ideas.

8. "Scratch" is a block-based programming language.

9. How to Integrate Scratch? Look for existing Projects or "Studios" Create your own Scratch Projects Have students programming in Scratch

10. Scratch Demo Math Race Area of a Parallelogram

11. Activity! Explore different types of projects: Animations, Games, Interactive Art, Stories, etc. http://scratch.mit.edu/starter_projects/ What kind of multimedia elements did you see?

12. Searching for Math Activities 1)Using the Search Bar from http://scratch.mit.edu/ http://scratch.mit.edu/ Two ways:

13. Searching for Math Activities 2) http://scratched.gse.harvard.edu/resources/all http://scratched.gse.harvard.edu/resources/all Filter resources by: Filter resources by: Education level, Content type, Curricular Area Two ways:

14. Peer Activity! Explore different types of math resources Help your peer finding something related to a topic s/he is currently teaching!

15. Remixing Scratch Projects In Scratch, you can copy existing projects and modify them according to your needs!

16. Creating a Scratch Project! Topic to practice: x,y coordinates Note: You need to sign in to save

17. Share your Future Projects! Existing Projects you Used in your Class Projects you modified/remixed Projects you created Projects that your students created Summer Workshop
