Animation Challenges: Inspiring Collaboration and Problem-Solving
January 30, 2025 | 8:30AM - 11:30AM | Feik Family Rotunda
(2-8)
How do you solve the problem of students who can’t solve their own problems? Give them problems they want to solve! In this fun animation workshop, learn how students can use simple tools like Google Slides to create GIFs or digital flip books. The catch? Animators must all finish each challenge without step-by-step instructions. They will want to try. They will want to learn from each other and from what does and does not work. Most of all, they will gain the confidence, skills, and sense of community they need to tackle future problems....together.*
Integrating Photography Across the Curriculum
January 30, 2025 | 1PM - 4PM | Feik Family Rotunda
(K-8)
Literature, social studies, and science are full of stories. Learn how to engage the selfie generation as they explore photography as a tool for telling those stories. Students will deepen their understanding of core ideas as they work collaboratively to create storyboards, direct photo shoots, and narrate photographic stories with free, easy-to-use applications. Bring your devices and curriculum documents to this hands-on workshop!
