SUMMARY:Building STEM Skills through Projects Afterschool
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a session about ways to build STEM skills using project-based learning as a part of your afterschool program. Project-based learning is fun and it can support academic growth – especially STEM skills – without feeling like school. We will explore ways that kids can go deep in areas of interest using project-based learning as a frame for exploration of STEM skills and concepts. We’ll explore strategies that both veteran and novice educators can use to efficiently plan and implement. Participants will also get free access to Rock by Rock’s project-based learning library to support planning for the rest of the school year and a simple project-implementation toolkit. \nOutcomes:\n-Identify the components of a strong project-based learning structure.\n-Identify ways to structure a project-based experience that builds core STEM skills.\n-Explore low lift strategies to integrate STEM project-based learning into your program. \nAbout the Presenter:\nJeffrey Imrich is the CEO and Cofounder of Rock by Rock\, a K-5 project-based learning platform that provides educators and students in any context (afterschool\, school\, home) equitable access to a library of fully planned project-based learning experiences that increase engagement\, build science\, literacy and SEL skills\, and empower kids to solve real-world problems. Projects blend online and offline instruction and are easy to implement by novice educators. Prior to founding Rock by Rock\, Jeff has been a leader in education for 20 years. He started as a Teach For America educator in Atlanta Public Schools and a Fulbright scholar in Taiwan. He launched a new Teaching and Learning wing with the TFA New York City region and led teacher training design for TFA’s national design team as Managing Director\, Design. Jeff also supported the strategy and design of early-stage education non-profits providing afterschool and non-traditional learning support for students in K-12. Most recently\, Jeff was VP of Innovation for the Achievement First Greenfield project\, leading the complete redesign and launch of 5 new charter schools in 3 states. \nSocial:\nLinkedin @ https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeff-imrich-63b12a5/

SUMMARY:Inspiring A Passion for Science and Nature with "eBird Explorers: Youth Action for Birds"
DESCRIPTION:Discover the Cornell Lab of Ornithology’s newest leader guide\, “eBird Explorers: Youth Action for Birds.” Designed for out-of-school settings in collaboration with New York State 4-H and the New York State Network for Youth Success\, these 11 hour-long lessons use birds and the eBird participatory-science project as the spark to get youth excited about nature and inspire them to view themselves as scientists.  \nThrough hands-on activities\, youth explore what it means to be a scientist\, learn to identify birds\, contribute to real scientific projects\, and design an action project to help birds in their own communities. Join us as we explore these activities and the powerful tools that create exciting growth opportunities for youth and make teaching bird ID and engaging in participatory science easy for leaders. \nObjectives:\n• Become familiar with the leader guide\, lessons\, and activities\n• Discover powerful tools that make teaching bird ID and participating in eBird easy for leaders\n• Explore how these lessons create exciting growth opportunities for youth \nPresenter Bio:\nKelly Schaeffer graduated from the University of Delaware with degrees in Wildlife Conservation and Entomology. While at UD\, she discovered the world of avian research and fell in love with chasing birds around the woods. She spent a few years traveling and working as a field research technician which inspired her to pursue a career in Environmental Education. She went back to school and obtained her MS from the University of Wisconsin – Stevens Point in Environmental Education. \nIn her work with the K-12 Education team at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology\, she helps educators across North America connect their students to nature while building science skills and fostering a lifelong passion for birds. Through fun\, hands-on curricula\, and online and in-person professional development\, she supports educators in bringing the power of participatory science and inquiry into their classrooms and programs. Birds are everywhere and everyone has the power to help us understand and protect them. Kids are essential to this understanding\, now and in the future. \nSocial Media:\nFacebook; @K12Lab\nInstagram; @k12_cornellbirds

SUMMARY:"It Takes the Village!": Exploring the Role of Expanded Learning Opportunities in Improving Early Literacy Outcomes
DESCRIPTION:On January 30th\, The Education Trust–New York launched The New York Campaign for Early Literacy — a statewide movement to improve student reading outcomes\, from birth to age 8. The Campaign is a continuum of their work to ensure New York State and local school districts prioritize early literacy and the science of reading. Schools and families should not\, in isolation\, address the literacy challenge in New York. Afterschool\, summer\, and other expanded learning programs are positioned to serve as partners providing high-quality\, early literacy support. \nJoin the New York State Network for Youth Success for the release of our new policy brief to learn more about how high-quality expanded learning opportunities foster early literacy education. We will also spotlight how several afterschool and community-based organizations are promoting early literacy through innovative initiatives and partnerships. \nPanelists  \n\nTarja Parssinen\, Founder/Director\, WNY Education Alliance\nJune Muto\, Lead\, Wayne MOST (Maximizing-Out-of-School Time)\nSamuel L.
