On June 1-6, 2019, UBC hosted the conference of the Canadian Society for the Studies in Education. This was very lucky for me and for many UBC graduate students who could attend a conference right at home. The Conference has a very active SERG (Science Education Research Group) that organized a number of very relevant sessions during the conference. On June 5, 2019, I presented a talk at the conference. The talk focused on innovative use of technology in STEM teacher education.
The session helped me learn about various ways of using technology in STEM education, in problem-based learning and in innovative technology use in museums. One of the interesting ideas I have learned is how to use or even to think about scaffolding when teaching online. As I teach ore and more online, I keep thinking about it.
