Join the Event Here Tonight at 7pm ET

Teachers, you won’t want to miss out on this live conversation with the one and only Josh Caldwell from Code.Org! Josh, a former classroom teacher, is the author of “Creative Coding”, and the curriculum lead at Code.Org. This one hour live learning event will dive into how you can help students think about computational thinking in artful, creative, digestible and fun ways!

This is the second in our three-part, “Inspiring Young Scientists” series for educators interested in STEAM topics. Josh will join PBS Digital Innovator All Stars, Vinny Chiaramonte and Aaron Maurer, to talk about coding and STEAM education, and will highlight exciting resources and models that you can immediately implement in your classroom.

PBS will provide a certificate of attendance for each one hour virtual professional learning event.

Sign up for the rest of the series!

Our world changes every day, and with that, our teaching practice does to: there is always more to learn as a STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, Math) educator. In this three part series, we’ll look at ways to inspire our young scientists and make concepts such as data and computational thinking engaging! Register for the three part "Live Learning" experience: Inspiring Young Scientists Through STEAM Education.

This virtual professional learning opportunity is powered by OVEE: a shared media viewing experience. Created by ITVS and funded by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB), OVEE combines quality HD media and live stream content with the community-building conversation of social media in a single-screen experience.

Through OVEE, filmmakers, educators, public media stations and other partners create online screenings that bring together fans, students, subject experts and special guests to watch streaming media and chat live in a virtual theater. The OVEE chat enables them to discuss the topic, share resources, and ask questions of panelists and experts featured in the video.
