Coding is an essential 21st century language, but coding alone won’t be enough to prepare today’s students for tomorrow’s careers. What students are able to DO with code will be what matters. Students will need to be creative problem solvers in order to truly be ready for whatever lies ahead. By engaging students in STEAM as well as coding, educators will help prepare students to be creative problem solvers no matter what careers come their way.

In this  edWebinar, hear from Jon Samuelson, Innovation Strategist at Beaverton School District, Beaverton, OR, who is actively combining coding with STEAM learning objectives. Get tips and tricks on integrating coding and STEAM plus lots of ideas that you can try in your classroom, makerspace, or school.

This recorded session is designed for administrators, principals, teachers, librarians, and coaches who serve students in grades 3-8, but anyone interested in coding and STEAM learning is invited to attend this live, interactive event. Learn how to get your students future ready with coding and STEAM!
