ISTELive 22 - Level Up Tech Skills With Student Technology Leaders

Join me at the ISTELive 22 Conference for my session on Level Up Technology Skills With Student Tech Leaders to learn more about how to empower students to teach others new technology skills!

Need to teach your students technology skills for in-person classroom, distance, hybrid, or online learning? Let them teach each other! 

Our student Genius Squad tech teams learned new tech skills, leveled up and earned badges as they moved through synchronous and asynchronous course resources, and put their skills to work through service learning to support their teachers and classmates. Check out the work of our elementary Genius Squads and resources that helped them level up their skills and created an interest in computer science careers.

iPad Challenge - Create A Stop Motion Animation Robot Video

 For anyone following along with our elementary Genius Squad program, here are the details of our third iPad challenge if you want to share these resources with your students.

This week students are exploring shapes in the Shapes Library in Keynote and how to break apart some shapes and then assemble shapes to create an original robot. Then they will create a stop motion animation robot video by animating the shapes in the Keynote app. Finally they can watch their video in the Photos app on the iPad and share it from there.


Challenge #4

Goal: Create a stop motion animation robot video out of shapes.
