Stoked to hear from @DrPeppler and @Radio_Kah_Reem from @IllestLab about connected learning, making at home, design principles for equitable makerspaces, and "getting people to say ill in the most formal context possible." @makers_mentors #mmnconvening2021
Sending good vibes to some ILLEST collaborators on their @Spencer_Fdn award! Re-imagining Alternative Education: Designing for Geographies of Care and Responsibility @etuckray @mco_soy_yo @_bgravel_ #keeppushingboundaries

Our ILLEST Lab kept doing their CSEA program remotely STEAM programming for 20 HS students from @WestPhillyPN even in times of crises in a worldwide pandemic; with your help, we can keep getting great things! Tune to our Zoom on May 5 and donate through Drexel.edu/24

Mostly Black girls here (6-16). Participating in STEM AND computing AND hip hop. We asked them to make space, to take space, and create a space for others. They created an interactive computational hip hop block party.

Jokes can often be perceived as disruptive or off task but they are an integral part of arguments in many Ss home and community lives. As educators we could stop and ask what in the joke is related to the conversation and how. #NGSSpractice

@IllestLab using sneaker deconstruction to help young people see themselves as STEM doers. A good example of meeting youth where they are and pushing them to think more deeply. And these weren’t bobos they were working with either! Expensive taste over there!
New work by two dope scholars & friends of the ILLEST! @_bgravel_ @vsvihla #HeterogeneousEngineering
[New Paper] How big/messy can a design problem be, and still be engaging for students? New article exploring “heterogeneous engineering” in whole-class design projects with @vsvihla in @JLearnSciences doi.org/10.1080/10508406.202…
[New Paper] The @STEMCees crew explored the designed cultural ecology of a hip-hop & computational STEM camp through culturally sustaining learning experiences. @_bgravel_ @etuckray @admillner @ShedaBeda @tikynaD emerald.com/insight/content/… @InfoLearnJournl
