@ryannoonan5 @r_nd_rgh Is it working across all DOE or still in trial form?

Interesting day! I forgot how fast chromebooks are.

@MikeManefield @jamsorgau @austmus @RBGSydney Ok sounds great. I’ll pass it all on.

@MikeManefield Hey mate, we are onto it. Passing all the info onto teachers this afternoon. Anything you recommend?

@MikeManefield Perhaps an automated bin system. 😂 Thank you, we really appreciate your support and are very glad you landed on our doorstep a few years ago.

@MikeManefield He is an incredible student with an outstanding mind. We are so proud to have him at EPS.

@AlphaBalzer @dizdarm I’ll check it out!

Incredible! Love the description and design thinking! As your students love designing, make sure you check out the #CoolControllerComp at this website: education.nsw.gov.au/public-schools… it’s a great opportunity for your amazing stage 3 students. 🙌@EleebanapsS @dizdarm

So what happens when you pose Year 6 a design challenge? Challenge was to create a piece of fire fighting equipment that could be used stationary at individual houses to protect from future bushfires. @LEGO_Education @AlphaBalzer @stem_T4L @DoE_STEM

@ICTLaurens @AlphaBalzer Ohhh I really hope so! This is awesome news! Can we can a list of specs?

Minecraft on Chromebooks! Just what you’ve been waiting for @EleebanapsS 😉💪

Challenged Year 4 to create something that moved. They have never used @LEGO_Education EV3 before. With a bit of help to sort the codes, they used problem solving to work through the faults and created this catapult. I was blown away. @AlphaBalzer @stem_T4L @DoE_STEM

The LEGO EV3 has been a huge hit with the senior school. Year 5 and 6 have been creating “nanobots” to fight viruses, linking into their unit microorganisms. Some great functional designs. @DoE_STEM @stem_T4L @AlphaBalzer

@pmac1610 @HeazlewoodNic @JGray46 @Owend21 Could be the year.

@HeazlewoodNic @EleebanapsS @JGray46 @Owend21

Using the @Ozobot to code the way home from school. Linking coding with geography, art and maths. @stem_T4L mentoring other teachers as I go. @DoE_STEM

@pmac1610 Look forward to it.

Please join us for a teachmeet this Thursday from 3:30pm on how schools have used assessment effectively in the transition back to school. Click on the link below to access the livestream. education.nsw.gov.au/inside-the-dep…

@Owend21 The use of technology and confidence kids will gain through being creators and innovators instead of just consumers will be immense. I think it will revolutionise for the better.

As a proud NSW Principal I have spent a hectic week reshaping the way we educate our children ... Does anyone else think this might trigger a revolution in the way we deliver teaching and learning?

So easy, yet so effective.

@ryannoonan5 Yea, I’ve done some Beebot stuff to begin with but thought I’d get outside for well-being week and have some fun.

Great idea! I think I’ll be ‘borrowing this idea’.

Changed up our coding for Year 2. Added some if statements. These kids nailed it. @AlphaBalzer @stem_T4L @DoE_STEM

Change up of our outdoor coding @AlphaBalzer @stem_T4L @DoE_STEM

A bit of outdoor coding for well-being week. @stem_T4L @AlphaBalzer

First lesson of the year with the #beebots and Year 2 nailed it. A lesson on how to code and create at the same time. The challenge was creating their own obstacle course and writing code that another bot could follow and debugging when needed. Next lesson, debugging. @stem_T4L
