The Constructivist Consortium is hosting its 5th annual Constructivist Celebration in Philadelphia, June 26, 2011 – the day before the ISTE Conference begins.
Join colleagues from around the world in a day-long minds-on celebration of creativity, computers and constructivist learning.
The Constructivist Celebration features project-based activities geared towards K-12 educators, administrators & teacher educators.
This year’s theme is HARD FUN! Educators completing a difficult year deserve some HARD FUN!
After a kickoff keynote by Dr. Gary Stager, participants will select challenges using the open-ended creativity software provided by Constructivist Consortium members, including LCSI, Tech4Learning and Inspiration. In addition to your mind and spirit, you body will be nourished by continental breakfast, hot lunch and afternoon snacks courtesy of our Maggiano’s Little Italy! Last year’s participants could not stop raving about the food!
Representatives of Generation YES, LCSI, SchoolKiT and Tech4Learning will lead challenges and support project development.
The day ends with time for project sharing and reflection followed by a conversation, “Digging Deeper,” with Will Richardson and Gary Stager. I am most grateful to Will for his generosity and willingness to participate!
Best of all, the entire day – software, an endles feast and a spa-day for the mind costs only $60!
Register today! Past Constructivist Celebrations have been extremely popular and space is limited.
