 We are excited to support the work of Maureen Tumenas, a Technology Integration Specialist in the Hadley Public Schools, with an Isa Zimmerman-MASCD Technology Integration & Innovation Mini-Grant. For the past few years, Maureen and her colleagues have been creating a STEAM lab, and the grant will support this ongoing work. Specifically, the grant will be used to purchase resources that will allow third and fourth grade students to engage in projects using bit boards and micro:bits this spring. The engineering design process is at the core of these projects: students will ask, imagine, plan, create, improve. They will choose a problem in their home or community that they can address with micro:bits. Maureen powerfully explained how the engineering design process helps students develop empathy, learn research skills, and learn to plan, create, test and improve. That’s the kind of exciting learning we want for all students! We can’t wait to hear about the projects the students design. ​
