Are You Ready for NJSLS in Computer Science & Design Thinking?
FREE SRI&ETTC Workshops Available November & December 2021
|
|
The 2020 NJSLS in Computer Science & Design Thinking (formerly Technology) were adopted by the State Board of Education on June 3, 2020. Districts are required to implement by September 2022.
Vision - All students have equitable access to a rigorous computer science and design thinking education. Students will benefit from opportunities to engage in high-quality technology programs that foster their ability to:
-develop and apply computational and design thinking to address real-world problems and design creative solutions;
-engage as collaborators, innovators, and entrepreneurs on a clear pathway to success through postsecondary education and careers;
-navigate the dynamic digital landscape to become healthy, productive, 21st- century global-minded individuals; and
-participate in an inclusive and diverse computing culture that appreciates and incorporates perspectives from people of different genders, ethnicities, and abilities.
FREE Workshops - Computer Science Unplugged
Many of the principles of computer science can be better applied and understood when experienced in the “non-tech” world. These workshops demonstrate lessons that can be used to teach NJ standard aligned, components of computer science before applying them with the more complex use of technology. Participants will engage in and explore interactive, grade-level appropriate, tactile activities.
Join us for a series of workshops to introduce the grade-level standards and explore ways that teachers can design lessons that are interactive and grade-appropriate.
Grades 6-8, November 17, 2021 - 1:00 pm to 2:30 pm
Grades K-2, November 30, 2021 - 1:00 pm to 2:30 pm

LGBTQ-Inclusive Pedagogy
A Workshop for K-12 Educators, Presented by Stockton University's Why the Humanities Matter Institute for Teachers
December 2021
|
|
Beginning in Fall 2020, state law requires New Jersey schools to include the "political, economic, and social contributions of persons with disabilities and lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender people” in middle school and high school curricula. Through discussion and hands-on activities, we'll explore gender and sexuality as socially constructed categories that shape history, science, literature, and tools for measuring social change over time. Teachers in all fields will develop practical applications to build cultural competency, strengthen students' critical thinking skills, and enhance school and classroom climate.
This workshop will be presented by Betsy Erbaugh, a sociologist with research and teaching specialties in intersections of gender, sexuality, race, and class in health promotion and social change. She conducts community-based research on women's and LGBTQ+ health in New Jersey. In partnership with local LGBTQ+ organizations, she is studying the impact of LGBTQ-inclusive curricula on school climate and student well-being.
This workshop is FREE, but preregistration is required.
Participants need a phone or device with internet access in order to participate in the event.
Date & Time: December 9, 2021 - 3:00 pm - 4:30 pm, LIVE via Zoom

THE SEI ONLNE
A Free 15-Hour Course on Sheltered English Instruction
Developed by the SRI&ETTC Funded by the NJ Department of Education
|
|
Educating students who still are acquiring English proficiency can be complex in an age of high stakes evaluations and assessments as well as college and career-ready standards. English language learners (ELLs) are not monolithic in their educational background, cultural experiences, and ability to adapt to learning environments. However, through well-planned instruction, ELLs can attain challenging academic standards.
