LAST CHANCE FOR: ITE#1: Communication Technology & Graphic Design (Sept. 19th)

This workshop will cover how to develop interesting and creative projects into your Graphic Design Courses. We will discuss how to incorporate everything from Pop culture, photography, and students' interest into your classroom. Basic Photoshop and Photography skills will also be covered.

 

This workshop will take you through the steps of the ITE Award winning project called "You the Movie". All participants will get an overview of the cameras the students use for the project, along with the software that is used to create the final design of a creative movie cover. Workshop participants will leave with a supply of creative Graphic Design TLA's.

 

All workshop attendees are requested to bring a digital camera if possible.

 

A full dinner will be provided at this workshop.

Inaugural ManufactureNJ Week

ManufactureNJ Week 2 

Remember to Sign Up for the Biomimicry Workshop (Sept. 27th)

NJTEEA invites you to learn about Biomimicry, the design process that looks to nature for viable solutions to real, human issues. Nature has been designing and redesigning for 3.8 billion years without polluting the environment.

 

This workshop will provide you with enough materials to take back to your classroom and introduce Biomimicry to your students and implement activities for students to start looking at nature as a model, measure and mentor, while they develop design solutions.

 

Explore this design process through a series of slides followed by a hands-on activity to get you involved in the very same process you will use with your students. This design process will help you link your curriculum to the environment and have students looking for solutions that are eco-friendly every time.

 

Dinner will be provided at this workshop.

Remember to Sign Up for the Aviation & Flight Workshop (Oct. 9th)

NJTEEA invites you to join us for a professional development workshop at Linwood Middle School to learn the basics of aviation & flight, and how you can incorporate these resources into your classroom. Learn about easy, inexpensive flight and aerospace projects for the STEM classroom such as stomp rockets, paper airplane challenge, and solid fuel rockets. A CD and packet with NASA and other activities, resources and curriculum will be available to all attendees.
