Including collaborating with computer science to create a physical model that incorporates coding. Students will showcase their project and explain to participants their reflections from the start of the project, through the end. Teacher will share templates, Standards and resources for participants. There will be a padlet available for participants to ask questions or request further resources. Will also have a video on loop that will include snapshots of the process of the project from all students involved (not just presenters).
