The Missouri Alliance for Arts Education is proud to support these fine professional development opportunities for Missouri educators this summer. Two Arts Integration sessions will provide teachers of all grade levels and subjects with proven techniques to incorporate the arts into their teaching. STEAM V will enter its 5th year of revealing a whole different spin on Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math education.
One thing we have discovered over the years while working with Arts Integration and STEAM is that these workshops have the most positive impact on your schools when a faculty team attend together. Ideally, an arts educator will partner with an administrator and non-arts educator to really begin incorporating these ideas into the work of educating students.
Opportunity #1 STEAM—Hands On Problem Solving Without Getting Burned!
(See attached STEAM V poster for details)
July 24-25, 2018
Goal:
To provide teachers with three creative problem solving systems that will teach students meta cognition or how to, "Think Outside the Box."
Description:

This year the workshop will bring back STEAM artist Zack Smithey and feature Emmy award winner Tim Gore of Educate.Today/ HECTV. In addition to hands on creative problem solving there will be a field trip to the HECTV Studios to see the groundbreaking work in education technology. This workshop is capped at a maximum of 30 participants.
