Our colloquia focus on relevant topics in mathematics and science education. Held several times each semester, these informal talks provide educators across contexts opportunities to consider ways research and practice can mutually inform each other. These talks highlight personal stories, challenge us to interrogate our current practices, and inspire us to embrace innovation and creativity. Join us to engage in the dialogue!

In this interactive talk, Celeste will share innovative ways to incorporate the micro:bit microcontroller into hands-on projects that explore computing, art, and science. Participants will explore ways this transdisciplinary approach broadens participation in computer science and invites learners into creative and collaborative design. There will be hands-on activities with the micro:bit microcontrollers and discussions around in-class and out-of-class implementation.
In this collaborative presentation, participants will hear from a mathematician and an artist who set on the journey of collaboratively teaching math in an art class at a local high school. They will share the process of looking at research, the lessons on symmetry they created together, examples of students’ work, and their passion for seeing this type of intentional collaboration grow throughout the central valley and beyond.
