    W3: Developing TPACK in ESL Instruction as Educators and Technology Integration Specialists – Cultures of Instruction and Communities of Practice (Bring Your Laptop or Device)
    Phil Boltz
    Integrating appropriate technological, pedagogical, and content knowledge in the field of ESL involves challenges for technology integration specialists and ESL educators. The K-12 ESL educator field is an amalgamation of instructional models that require customized approaches by educators and specialists alike. This workshop is an opportunity for ESL Instructors, Technology Integration Specialists, and everyone in between to collaborate and develop effective learning centered frameworks for technology integration in the ESL learning environment. Once the dialogue has been constructed, a second opportunity exists for educators and specialists to collectively model and theorize methods for developing sustainable ESL communities of practice that utilize technology in meaningful ways.

    W5: Using STEM to Innovate, Educate and Transform Learning with Geographic Information System (GIS) Technologies
    Bonnie Bracey Sutton
    GIS & Citizen Science, use STEM to Innovate and Educate. The panel will demonstrate best practices from ESRI, Concord.org and the National Geographic in these categories. A geographic information system which integrates hardware, software, and data for capturing, managing, analyzing, and displaying all forms of geographically referenced information. GIS allows us to view, understand, question, interpret, and visualize data in many ways that reveal relationships, patterns, and trends in the form of maps, globes, reports, and charts. GIS helps us answer questions and solve problems by looking at our data in a way that is quickly understood and easily shared. GIS technology can be integrated into any enterprise information system framework. GIS gives us a new way to look at the world around us. We will demonstrate story mapping, and citizen science using probes in STEM and use of geographic information systems in communities to educate, inform and create transformation.
