STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) is a necessary component of all classrooms today. As educators, we need to find ways to reach all students and help them better understand STEM topics. In this session, we'll share a few STEM activities for educators with limited tech options and those who are simply looking for a no- or low-tech STEM lesson. We'll also reflect on the activity suggestions and discuss possible management concerns that arise when working in cooperative groups. As a result of this session, teachers will: 1. Explore no-tech and low-tech STEM activities; 2. Understand the engineering design process; and 3. Plan for the integration of no- and low-tech STEM activities in the classroom. This session is appropriate for teachers at all technology levels.

AI Writing Check is a tool to determine if a piece of writing appears to be generated by AI (artificial intelligence). Copy and paste text with a word count of one-hundred and four-hundred words to use the writing checker. Current estimates are that results are between 80-90% accurate based upon over 15,000 essays checked. In addition to the writing checker, this site provides a printable toolkit for addressing AI plagiarism in the classroom. The toolkit document contains background information on using AI tools and suggested strategies for using AI Writing Check in classrooms.
tag(s): artificial intelligence (45), plagiarism (33)
In the Classroom
Bookmark this site and share it with students; however, remember this tool is not 100% accurate. In addition to using AI Writing Check to look for plagiarism, use this tool as a learning opportunity when working with students. For example, ask students to create a writing prompt using an AI chat generator like ChatGPT, then paste the text into AI Writing Check and analyze the results. Discuss if there are ways to rewrite the chat so that it doesn't appear to be AI-generated, then review the changes made. If students' work seems to be AI-generated instead of student-written, then discuss classroom policies and the proper use of AI when completing classroom assignments. Share acceptable uses of AI generators for student use, such as creating tutorials that develop understanding or as a tool for generating titles and writing prompts to be developed further by the student. Work together as a class to develop policies for using AI tools for classroom work, then create and share the policies using a website creator such as Carrd, reviewed here. Include a link to the policy page on your class website, learning management system homepage, and with parents.
This resource requires PDF reader software like Adobe Acrobat.

Emojis are entertaining and a bit whimsical; however, they also help provide visual cues for assignments, feedback, and clarity to classroom routines. For example, use emojis as part of exit tickets for students to give feedback on their understanding of the day's lessons. Ask students to use emojis to create categories when researching information. Retell stories using emojis to represent characters or the sequence of events.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member

After your rhythm is matched, you can further explore the sonata by listening to the entire piece, zooming in or out of the visual representation of the rhythm. Google Arts and Culture has a free downloadable teacher guide that includes over 50 pages of lessons and teaching ideas.
