A conversation with Shawna Young, EMBA '15, on her experiences from North Carolina to Cambridge, from teaching high school to reinvigorating the Scratch Foundation at MIT and advocating for her community.  A graduate of Howard University, Shawna tells us about being in a space where her classmates could be themselves, “unapologetically black and ambitious.” It set her on a path to focus on the access to advanced learning opportunities for children of color early in their educational journey.   Shawna tells us about the challenges of navigating both parenting and a career guided by the principles of helping the underserved, whether in the high schools where she taught, or through the Duke Talent Identification Program, or at several positions that she has held at MIT. Shawna closes by talking about the diverse community she encountered at MIT Sloan, and how she and her classmates bonded over the challenges of juggling school, career, and personal lives.  Support the showThanks for listening!

If you have a child (a young sibling, cousin, student, or even friend) in your life, chances are you know about Scratch—the wildly popular graphical program language that kids use to dream up interactive stories, games, and animations. But it's entirely possible you don't know the man behind Scratch, Mitch Resnick, the LEGO Papert Professor of Learning Research at the MIT Media Lab, or that the Scratch Foundation has a strong, long-term relationship with EPAM. After listening to the latest iteration of *The Resonance Test,* in which Resnick and Shamilka Samarasinha, EPAM's Global Head of Corporate Social Responsibility, answer questions from producer Ken Gordon, that ignorance will instantly evaporate. The episode digs into the reasons why Scratch is, and always has been, a free program (“We didn't want there to be barriers for young people to get access to Scratch,” says Resnick) and how Scratch helped children during Covid (the first year of the pandemic saw the number of Scratch projects double and the number of comments the kids wrote on each other's projects increase fivefold). You'll hear about Scratch and the kids of Ukraine. Says Resnick: “In early March, 10 days after the invasion of Ukraine, I got a message from an educator in Ukraine named Olesia Vlasii.” Vlasii had the idea to use Scratch to create what she called Waves of Kindness. The result: A Waves of Kindness gallery on the Scratch website “where kids from around the world could upload projects about how you could spread kindness,” says Resnick. Within days, Waves of Kindness featured “literally thousands of projects from kids around the world.” The conversation also touches on how Scratch engages a wide ecosystem of learners to promote diversity and inclusion in expanding education and how EPAM's partnership with Scratch fits into our other ESG activities. “In the social impact space, obviously education is one of our core areas,” says Samarasinha. Finally, Resnik and Samarasinha talk about the evolving relationship between the Scratch Foundation and EPAM—our EPAM E-Kids program has expanded from four to 19 countries—and the upcoming virtual Scratch Conference. It's a conversation that your kid will want you to hear. So listen! Host: Alison Kotin Engineer: Kyp Pilalas Producer: Ken Gordon

“Why is the sky blue?” “Why do people get sick?” “Why aren't there any more dinosaurs?” Sometimes it feels like children never stop asking questions. And they shouldn't. A recent OECD International Early Learning and Child Wellbeing study shows that children who are curious have stronger language and number skills, and better self-control. So how do we keep students curious and creative even after they've outgrown kindergarten? Rowena Phair, senior analyst at the OECD, and Mitch Resnick, Professor of Learning Research at the MIT Media Lab, discuss. Host: Clara Young; Producer: Ilse Sánchez

In this interview with Mitch Resnick, we discuss misconceptions people have around the four P's (Projects, Passion, Peers, and Play) in Mitch's book, encouraging depth of understanding while playing, what has surprised Mitch during his career, encouraging online communication and collaboration without creating artificial engagement, what Mitch wishes we'd see more of and discuss in CS education, our pet peeves with unplugged activities and computational thinking, accounting for survivorship bias with Scratch, expanding our focus on equity and inclusion to include both the “who” and the “how,” the importance of experimenting and learning through play, and much more.Click here for this episode's show notes.

Yes this episode is about Scratch, one of the most well known programming language for kids, but it is about so much more. Join us as we talk with Scratch founder, Mitch Resnick, about bringing creativity back to the classroom. We dive deep into his time with his mentor Seymour Papert and into his creative process with his team in the MIT Media Lab.  We cover his journey to where he is today, important things to remember when inspiring a child's imagination (on and off the screen), and the magic of being a lifelong kindergartner.  Enjoy!

For TeachLab’s fourth Failure to Disrupt Book Club episode, we look back at Justin’s live conversation with Natalie Rusk and Mitch Resnick from MIT’s Lifelong Kindergarten Lab and who are the developers of the Computer Clubhouse program and the Scratch programming language. They discuss the founding of these programs as well as Failure To Disrupt’s Chapter 3: Peer-Guided Learning at Scale: Networked Learning Environments.“I think sometimes there really is this misperception about this type of creative learning approach... it's growing out of, as you say in the chapter, John Dewey's ideas for the progressive education movement. And sometimes people characterize that as if-- just stand back and kids will do wonderful things on their own. And of course, if you stand back, some kids will do wonderful things on their own. But I think we're very aware that you need a whole variety of supports as Natalie was talking about. So I think sometimes people get the wrong impression about what's going to be needed. And then people might get disillusioned or feel that doesn't live up to the promise if they do just stand back and say, ‘Let it work on its own.’”    - Mitch Resnick In this episode we’ll talk about:Natalie and Mitch’s background and edtech storiesBeginning of Computer ClubhouseHow Scratch grew out of Computer ClubhouseProviding support and community to informal learning experiences Resources and LinksCheck out the Computer Clubhouse network!Check out Scratch!Learn more about the Lifelong Kindergarten Lab!Watch the full Book Club webinar here!Check out Justin Reich’s new book, Failure To Disrupt! Transcripthttps://teachlabpodcast.simplecast.com/episodes/bookclub4/transcript Produced by Aimee Corrigan and Garrett BeazleyRecorded and mixed by Garrett Beazley Follow TeachLab:FacebookTwitterYouTube

Alanna hosts our school library panel on the topic of instigating collaboration through instruction and building that cycle. Our coast-to-coast #CollaboNation panel of experts Lila Armstrong, Sonja Clark, and Leigh Borden strategize about their menu of collaboration and making sure that the school knows their true range of skills and abilities. How can we continue to push our schools to investigate inquiry projects where the ending (i.e. diorama) isn't predetermined? Favourites from our panel include book sets, anticipation guides, combining STEM with literacy, continuity pieces that cross all curricula and shifting school culture to embrace dissonance.Shoutouts to Jenn Brown, Christie Johnson, National Film Board, Mitch Resnick's Lifelong Kindergarten, Lisa Unger, Reggio, Robert John Meehan, and Walter Isaacson's The Innovators.

Bohaterką pierwszego odcinka EduGadek w roku 2019 jest Joanna Apanasewicz. Zanim jednak ją przedstawimy, chcemy ogłosić dwie ważne zmiany. Od Nowego Roku EduGadki się zmieniają - dodajemy dział "Szanujmy wspomnienia", który pojawi się przed głównym wywiadem, oraz dział "Skrzynka z narzędziami", który usłyszycie w końcowej części podcastu. Wracając jednak do naszego gościa - Asia jest nauczycielką edukacji wczesnoszkolnej w Szkole Podstawowej im. Piastów Śląskich w Chrząstawie Wielkiej koło Wrocławia, a także trenerką w programie Mistrzowie Kodowania i członkinią grupy Superbelfrzy RP i Superbelfrzy Mini. W 2018 r. znalazła się na "Liście 100 osób mających wpływ na rozwój kompetencji cyfrowych w Polsce". Joanna jest autorką publikacji i scenariuszy z wykorzystaniem nowoczesnych metod nauczania (w tym TIKu) oraz programowania w klasach młodszych. Uwielbia naukę przez działanie, prace ręczne i lekcje o charakterze STEAMowym (wytłumaczenie znajdziecie w samym wywiadzie). Asia jest blogerką - prowadzi blogi maliprogramisci.blogspot.com oraz apanaski.blogspot.com! Napisała także książkę pt. „Zrób to sam/a. Dydaktyczne pomoce (niemal) z niczego”. O czym usłyszymy w tym odcinku? * Dlaczego nazywają Asię "Adamem Słodowym polskiej edukacji"? * Co to jest "Makey Makey" i co można z nim zrobić na lekcji? * Co to jest "STEAM" i dlaczego ten trend jest ważny w dzisiejszej edukacji? * Czy nauka programowania w klasach I - III to siedzenie przy komputerach i zapisywanie kolejnych linijek kodu? * Kto to jest Mitch Resnick? * Jak powinno wyglądać programowanie na pierwszych etapach edukacji? * Skąd czerpać pomysły na lekcji kreatywne, ale realizujące podstawę programową? * Czy w licznej klasie można wykorzystać gry i zabawy? Jak to zrobić? * Jak przekonać rodziców, że to co robimy na lekcji to też edukacja, a nie tylko zabawa? * Dlaczego warto tłumaczyć rodzicom to, co się  dzieje w naszej klasie? * Jaką edukacyjną porażkę udało się Joasi przekuć  w sukces? * Co nowego w "Skrzynce z narzędziami"?

The T4L team step aside to make way for student interviewers Declan and Bhagyada from Greystanes High School, as they spend the afternoon with one of the creators of Scratch Professor Mitchel Resnick! Professor Resnick is LEGO Papert Professor of Learning Research, Director of the Okawa Center, and Director of the Lifelong Kindergarten group at the MIT Media Lab. A conversation not to be missed!

Mitch Resnick, Professor of Learning Research at the MIT Media Lab, develops new technologies and activities to engage children in creative learning experiences. He was centrally involved in the development of the Scratch programming language, the LEGO Mindstorms robotics kits, and the Computer Clubhouse network of after-school learning centers. He has been awarded with the […] The post CL187: Cultivating Creating In Children And Adults – Interview with Mitchel Resnick appeared first on James Taylor.

If you’ve ever seen the Toy Story movies, you may remember the neighbor kid, Sid. His room is presented in horror-movie fashion, with dim lighting and discordant music, and the toys are all in pieces, as Sid dismantles them and remakes them in his own crazy way. To Mitch Resnick, an MIT Media Lab professor and early pioneer of the maker movement for kids, this Hollywood’s portrayal is problematic, and part of a larger trend toward overly regimenting education these days. “I worry about the way the movie presents the inventor as sort of the dysfunctional character, and the bedroom with the toys that come alive on their own is the one that’s full of light and seen in a very positive light,” Resnick explains. Resnick argues that all kids—and even grownups—should approach life the way we all did in kindergarten, where learning happened through playfully rearranging the world around us. He makes that case in his new book “Lifelong Kindergarten: Cultivating Creativity through Projects, Passion, Peers, and Play.” It’s an argument that the inventors of kindergarten accidentally designed the kind of learning environment needed at all levels of education these days—whether it’s in school, college, or the workplace. EdSurge talked with Resnick this week about his new book, about what’s next for the free Scratch programming language his MIT lab developed, and about his take on what free online courses should look like (he has one coming out next month based on his book).

El profesor del MIT Media Lab Mitch Resnick se muestra muy escéptico acerca de los nativos digitales. Opina que los jóvenes tienen mucha experiencia con las nuevas tecnologías pero no tanto a la hora de crear y expresarse con ellas. Resnick ha desarrollado Scratch, uno de los lenguajes de programación para niños de más éxito. Scratch es un lenguaje visual basado en bloques que hace la programación divertida para los niños. El lenguaje de programación Scratch explica Mitch Resnick está diseñado para promover lo que llama la “espiral del pensamiento creativo”. Para el profesor Resnick las nuevas tecnologías si se utilizan y diseñan adecuadamente, tienen el potencial de ayudar a las personas a desarrollarse como pensadores creativos. Lenguajes como Scratch o iniciativas impulsadas por code.org están acercando la ciencia de la computación a los niños, con proyectos creativos y dinámicos. Se trata de inculcar la idea de que ellos pueden ser creadores de tecnología en lugar de meros consumidores. Encantado de recibir comentarios y valoraciones a este episodio.

Mitchel Resnick (or Mitch, for short) knows his making—from a lot of different angles. And he’s not too bought into the whole “electronics and gadgets” side of the maker movement. Resnick has been in this business for more than 30 years, and it’s safe to say that he’s seen the maker movement—and the state of STEM education, in general—go through its phases, its ups and downs. He’s currently the LEGO Papert Professor of Learning Research and head of the Lifelong Kindergarten group at the MIT Media Lab, where he and his team have developed products familiar to many a science educator: the "programmable brick" technology that inspired the LEGO Mindstorms robotics kit, and Scratch, an online computing environment for students to learn about computer science. Is making something that every school should be doing—and are all interpretations of “making” of equitable value? EdSurge sat down with Resnick in his office at the MIT Media Lab to learn more, and to find out how he and his team are working to bring more creativity into the learning process.

Mitch Resnick, del MIT Media Lab, dice que la codificación no es sólo para genios informáticos, sino que es para todos. En una charla divertida y llena de demostraciones, Resnick describe los beneficios de enseñar a los niños a codificar, para que puedan hacer algo más que "leer" las nuevas tecnologías, sino también crearlas. (Filmado en TEDxBeaconStreet).

코드쓰기는 컴퓨터 신동만을 위한게 아니라 모두를 위한 것이라고 MIT 미디어랩의 미치 레스닉이 말합니다. 레스닉은 아이들에게 코드쓰기를 가르칠 때의 이점을 재밌게 풍부한 예를 들어 설명하며, 아이들이 새로운 기술을 그냥 "읽기"만 하는 게 아니라 만들어 낼 수도 있다고 이야기 합니다. (TEDxBeacon 거리에서 촬영)

Programmieren ist nicht nur für Computerfreaks, sagt Mitch Resnick vom MIT-Media-Lab – es ist für alle. In einem lustigen Vortrag, voller Vorführungen, zeigt Resnick die Vorteile davon auf, Kindern Programmieren beizubringen, damit sie neue Technologien nicht nur "lesen", sondern auch selber erschaffen können. (Gefilmt auf der TEDxBeaconStreet.)

Selon Mitch Resnick du MIT Media Lab, programmer n'est pas réservé aux craks de l'informatique -- c'est pour chacun d'entre nous. Dans cette amusante présentation pleine de démonstrations, Resnick souligne les bénéfices de l'enseignement de la programmation aux enfants, qui peuvent alors faire bien plus que "lire" les nouvelles technologies -- ils peuvent aussi les créer. (Filmé à TEDxBeaconStreet.)

Escrever códigos não é só para os magos dos computadores, diz Mitch Resnick do laboratório de Mídia do MIT -- é para todos. Numa palestra divertida e cheia de demonstrações, Resnick apresenta os benefícios de ensinar as crianças a escrever códigos, para que eles possam fazer mais do que simplesmente "ler"as novas tecnologias, mas também criá-las. (Filmado em TEDxBeaconStreet.)

Программирование не только для компьютерных умников, оно для всех, — утверждает Митч Резник, профессор Лаборатории Медиа Массачусетского Технологического Института. В своём весёлом выступлении с множеством видео примеров, Резник описывает преимущества обучения детей программированию, чтобы они не только умели «читать» с помощью новых технологий, но и создавать их. (Снято на TEDxBeaconStreet)

プログラミングはコンピュータの専門家だけのものではなく万人のものであると、MITメディアラボのミッチェル・レズニックは言います。この楽しいデモ満載の講演で彼が示しているのは、子供達にプログラミングを教えるメリットは彼らが新しい技術を使うだけでなく創造できるようになることにあるということです。（TEDxBeaconStreetにて収録）

Coding isn't just for computer whizzes, says Mitch Resnick of MIT Media Lab -- it's for everyone. In a fun, demo-filled talk Resnick outlines the benefits of teaching kids to code, so they can do more than just use new tech toys but also create them.
