@PWCSNews Thank you for your support of my journey at @NSF @NSF_NSB this year via my Albert Einstein Distinguished Educator Fellowship (@AEF_Program #Einsteinfellows23)! I hope to make you all and especially Unity Reed HS proud! #STEMeducation @InsideNoVA pwcs.edu/news/2023/10/u…

I am totally new to AI, and I have found Otter.AI to be a fantastic avenue to automatically record meetings, draft meeting minutes, and summarize meetings. For #TEACHers this can help capture lessons for absent students and draft department notes #Einsteinfellows23

What a wonderful experience taking with Thomas for @physicstp!!! I've loved the podcast for so 👏 many 👏 years 👏 and I truly enjoyed sharing! I hope to get together again and hopefully also talk with @RobinSGriffiths 😎 #teachertwitter @Einsteinfellows23 linkedin.com/posts/michael-…

A2: Simply having the opportunity to participate in CS is so profoundly important. I worked, for example, at getting @arduino tech into my classroom (CS is way outside my background)... these small efforts with conversations on career paths truly help students #EinsteinFellows23

A1: @jerome_hruska is a tech and engineering teacher and robotics coach at @urhsteched who does an absolutely fantastic job growing CS skills in students! I am totally inspired by Jerome and the robots his @seaperch / @VEXRobotics teams build every year!! #EinsteinFellows23

I'm Mike Stewart and my favorite #computerscience resources are 100% @codeorg and the @arduino website. I'm a novice amateur coder to which these are essential, accessible, affordable, and just plain fun! Easy for teachers and students at any age #EinsteinFellows23 #unplugged

@Bg_teach Oh hell yes! Literally, any subject can do this including non-stem subject. But, yes, bad genetics is rampant in film! I want to do this now!! lol Also, you can "explain the real super hero skill" by looking at the broken science in the movie which is fun #EinstenFellows23

(A3) I've ended my years in Physics with a "Bad Physics Movie" project, where students find examples of bad physics in film and explain what's wrong. Bollywood, anime, and super hero movies are consistently terrible!! Works in any class #EinsteinFellows23 #STEMeducation #TEACHers

@DenisecWright @codeorg @AEF_Program I have seen so much success with coding at the elementary level!!! Across numerous 👏 states 👏. I hope teachers at all levels feel encouraged to try exploring and and including coding and robotics in their claims... it's doable and quite fun! #EinstenFellows23

Q1) These are some great books for elementary educators/students in #STEMEducation on #AI and #coding . It is important we teach about #AI and #coding across K-12 ! Check out these great books by the #AIClub and @codeorg #AI4K12 #STEM @AEF_Program #EinsteinFellows23

@cjbj9612 @AEF_Program Relatability can be so difficult to... *do* (phrasing?). For me, bad dad jokes work (once we're through the first semester and the students are it's okay to laugh)... it takes time but being a goof with students works, even though it's super embarrassing lol #EinstenFellows23

@AEF_Program I feel that the most effective teacher is that person who is relatable. I always share stories about my background with my students. Once of my most powerful stories was about how I was born and raised in poverty and what it took for me to get out of it. #EinsteinFellows23

Intro: Share story that has been a lifeline for you from your classroom, your life, or the news #EinsteinFellows23

(A2) What do you want to students to remember? This core question guides how informal learning opportunities connect to class standards/practices. Encourage students to apply their skill to anything: games, sports, shows, anything! #EinsteinFellows23 #STEMeducation #TEACHers

@Amy__Ski FLOWERS 🪻 #EinstenFellows23

@agarriolapdx @AEF_Program There is so much that goes into good teaching! If only non-teachers knew what teachers do everyday #EinstenFellows23

@AEF_Program Early in my teaching career, one of my mentors at Gonzaga University taught me the importance of the "other 3 R's" of education, i.e., relationship, relevance, and respect. #EinsteinFellows23

(A1) I highly suggest elementary teachers follow @NCTM's and @NSTA's websites which house numerous structures and ideas for teachers. I've seen many preK-4 teachers utilizing code.org to cover Math and Lit via comp sci activities #EinsteinFellows23 #teacher #STEM

@_fysteam Facts!! #EinstenFellows23

@MPStewart13 Teacher burnout is so real and it can happen multiple times even if you recover from it once! #EinsteinFellows23

(Intro) My lifeline has always been my wife, Melissa, and our continuous effort to find balance between work and home-life. Balance is key to sustainability, and I truly feel most teachers do not find this balance, exacerbating to teacher burnout #EinsteinFellows23 #teacher #STEM

@RKNomura Geee thanks frens!!! (Genuinely not trying to sound sarcastic, too lololol) #EinstenFellows23

@MPStewart13 I don't know how to express this through text and gifs without seeming insincere. Genuinely: This is very sweet.

@science_wv85299 L 👏 O 👏 L 👏 so amazing so real

@_fysteam @AEF_Program I've never coached because it seems like such a time dump... I'm glad you got so much out of the experience!! I'm sure your students loved seeing you in that coaching capacity! #EinstenFellows23

Intro: Recently, I started coaching youth basketball again. I forgot how much interacting with kinesthetic learning is important to me. Whether it is school, a sport, or an outdoor adventure… We are drawn to the soul of our learning. #Einsteinfellows23 @AEF_Program

@DenisecWright @SpaceForceDoD @usairforce These hands-on experiences are so imperative for teachers to keep their STEM passions kindled! #EinstenFellows23

Hi, I am Denise, a fellow in the @SpaceForceDoD @usairforce a lifeline story is being a #ACEAP Ambassador, (Astronomy in Chile Educator Ambassador Program) I saw the southern sky, visited some of the largest telescopes in the world. It reinspired my teaching ! #EinsteinFellows23

Who's ready for this twitter chat tonight?! #Einsteinfellows23
