Thursday February 13, 2025 10:30am - 11:30am MST
Salon 15/16
How do we teach the next generation to reclaim disturbed land, to heal the Earth? With ever growing environmental pressures, everyone must understand the importance of land reclamation. Join Valerie Miller, PhD, to explore the game “Become An Earth Doctor”. This Dungeons and Dragons inspired game allows participants to become land reclamation practitioners, walking them through key steps and decisions. In this session, participants will be introduced to land reclamation, explore gameplay, and be introduced to resources to host in their own classroom solo or with support.

Adaptation of a Robotics Teaching Aid for Special Needs Students
Thursday February 13, 2025 2:15pm - 3:15pm MST
Salon 15/16
Science, Technology, Engineer, and Mathematic (STEM) programs allow students to explore multiple domains while gaining fundamental knowledge such as critical thinking and problem solving. Despite the popularity, traditional robotics materials lack the proper adaptations and sufficient training to be incorporated in adaptive classrooms. This session explores specific alterations to robotic materials, specifically Ozobots. Participants will learn ways they can alter existing materials, gain an insight into how robotics can be integrated with curriculum and will get hands on experience with robotics materials.
