Shifting Schools: Conversations for K12 Educators 248: Does your network shape your mindset?
How do you build a network of learners and how does that network in turn shape you as a learner?
On the podcast this week, Drea Weiner answers that question (and many others).
This conversation is supported by our amazing sponsors: Stem Sports and MackinMaker
At the heart of this conversation, we think about how we can cultivate the mindsets that promote STEM-based inquiry and set students up to be leaders in MakerEd. Drea reminds us that STEM learning intersects our entire curriculum and invites interdisciplinary learning and community connections.
Let's learn more about our guest:
