I'm in Marion, Iowa and getting ready for a new space in March 2022. Looking forward to learning together! 00:32:11 mark uebler: hello from Watertown, NY 00:32:21 Irma Smith: Irma Smith from Arizona 00:32:27 Kelly Knutson: Welcome all! @Marion, that is exciting! New year, new space! 00:32:30 Melody Walden: Melody from Tulsa, Oklahoma 00:32:38 Tamika Gaskins: Hi from Maryland 00:33:05 Kelly Knutson: If any questions arise during discussions, please add them to the Q&A panel. We’ve saved about 10-15 minutes at the end of the webinar to answer attendees questions. The more, the merrier 00:33:38 Kelly Knutson: @Jane, yep we can share in a follow-up email 00:44:44 Bill Tally: Do we want to mention the take home “Kits” idea that some librarians are doing, as a context? Eg, materials for making and exploring ramps, as a possibility. Or ask if they’re doing this, that they might share later? 00:45:28 Kelly Knutson: I think that is a great idea, Bill. If you guys raise it in discussion, I can ask in chat if anyone wants to share examples? 00:46:36 Meghan Davis: Agreed. Maybe add on to slide 20? Or the “techie kids” conversation? 00:46:37 Gina Millsap: I can bring it up in the Q and A. 00:46:51 Kelly Knutson: Sounds good! 00:49:53 Kelly Knutson: If conversations with Megan, Bill and Gina have inspired any questions, please add them to the Q&A panel. We’ll dive into attendee-submitted questions in about 10-ish minutes. 00:52:12 Meghan Davis: Gina, you may want to mention for people to add any questions they have. I think I missed that in the intro (sorry!) On the next question you ask - let them know there are 2 more points, but we have time dedicated to answer their direct questions. 00:52:25 Gina Millsap: ok 00:52:54 Kelly Knutson: Here is a link to the PEEP Ramps app: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/peep-family-science-ramps/id1290391974 00:53:23 Kelly Knutson: And a link to all good things Cat in the Hat Knows A Lot About That! https://pbskids.org/catinthehat/ 00:56:19 Kelly Knutson: Here is a link to the research Bill is discussing: https://www.informalscience.org/cyberchase-mobile-adventures-stem-report-national-pilot-text-message-based-family-learning-program 00:56:57 Kelly Knutson: Last link for a bit. Link to PEEP research Megan discussed: http://cct.edc.org/sites/cct.edc.org/files/publications/PEEP7FinalReport.pdf 01:00:05 Stephanie Bents: Can we get a copy of the slides after the webinar? I'd like to use the questions to help guide our selection of materials for our science kits. 01:00:42 Kelly Knutson: @Stephanie, you bet. We’ll include in a follow-up email 01:00:55 Kelly Knutson: Here is a link to NAEYC’s guide to finding high quality STEM resources: https://www.naeyc.org/resources/pubs/yc/jul2019/high-quality-stem-resources 01:01:07 Kelly Knutson: Below are a couple links to further connect with NAEYC:   NAEYC Early Childhood Science Interest Forum: https://bit.ly/2JMNAuB ECSIF Blog: http://www.ecsif.blogspot.com/ Hello conversation: https://www.naeyc.org/science-interest-forum 01:01:23 sean martin: will you be sending the links too? 01:01:31 Cailin Gallagher: Thank you from Cailin in Westmeath, Ireland. Great Talk!! 01:02:07 Kelly Knutson: @Sean, yep, we’ll include them all in a summary webpage shared in the follow-up email. 01:02:24 Kelly Knutson: Thanks for joining us Cailin! 01:04:40 Gina Millsap: Doing fine on time 01:06:01 Meghan Davis: Yep! I think more Q&A will come in when I get to the next slide and it calls it out. 01:06:19 Kelly Knutson: @Claudia, we will share the recording in a follow-up email. But also, the on-demand recording will be available on our website for anyone to view shortly after we wrap today. 01:07:25 Deb Rosenfeld: Perhaps for Gina: What are typical ways that libraries and librarians currently support STEM interest and learning? How might libraries both support children’s interests and learning and their parents’ confidence to engage and extend learning from library programming at home, especially right now? For Megan & Bill: How might librarians take these great resources and incorporate them into clubs, programs, kits, etc. to connect with kids and families generally, but especially now? 01:08:59 Kelly Knutson: @Deb, you should add these to the Q&A panel! Great questions 01:09:20 Deb Rosenfeld: Got it--thanks! 01:09:31 Kelly Knutson: You are the best, thank you! 01:10:03 Mayra Benitez-Tadillo: kits during the summer ! it was very popular with families! A librarian would create a video to go with it 01:10:17 Jill Pappenhagen: Engineer of the Week program run through facebook. Teams of youth create a chatbot for change or a game for learning. Great program 01:10:20 Stephanie Bents: Pre-COVID, we did bi-weekly programs for K-5 on STEM. Now we do video learning. We are also creating science kits to give kids opportunities to explore at home. We did exactly as you suggested--made them open-ended and fun rather than try to target them to specific curriculum or for homeschool learning. 01:10:44 Morag Llewellyn: 3D printer, maker spaces, lego competitions... 01:10:46 Madeline Jarvis: Thanks for the Scientist in the Crib rec -- FYI, the audiobook is available on Hoopla if your library has access! 01:10:55 Jill Pappenhagen: Also running Tinkercad Intensives - you can now create a classroom on Tinkercad.com - makes it really easy! 01:11:12 Stephanie Bents: After hearing you speak, I'm going to include your research and encourage parents to get involved with the kids as they explore. I will include some possible questions to ask kids as they play with the items in the kits. 01:11:20 Jenny Thurman: I'm a Teen Librarian so keep in mind this is for teens, but an upcoming take and make we're providing for teens is going to be about card making, but include materials and instructions for pop-up cards and cards that light up using paper circuits. 01:11:21 Jane Ellen France: Prior to the pandemic, we have a STEM table.....where we put out a weekly activity that patrons can stop by and use at any time. We also have all our STEM toys in shelves in that area that parent/caregivers may use at any time. We just debuted STEM take and make bags that pair with a video developed by staff that parents can do in the comfort of their home...when they have time. This is brand new and wildly popular so far...we created a STEM page www.lmls.org/bcstem 01:11:56 Jill Pappenhagen: Engineer challenge week - using items in your house, build a catapult, a slingshot, a vehicle, and a bridge. 01:12:04 Kelly Knutson: Just a reminder to change TO field to “All panelists and attendees” so everyone can see your amazing STEM programs, ideas and services 01:12:31 Jody Stejskal: I host a weekly build-it challenge club for children. I have gained a lot of parent participation and even competition with other parents. I change the materials and challenges weekly and found families look forward to it each week. We are a small community and our library is like the community hub. 01:12:37 Jenny Thurman: And when we do take and makes that include construction of something in some way, we encourage teens to add their own twist, and particularly experiment with materials, etc. 01:12:45 Jill Pappenhagen: There is a AR/VR coding online site called CoSpaces EDU - you can set up a classroom and do this online with kids 01:13:22 Jill Pappenhagen: We have created online clubs - Origami, Sewing, and D&D 01:13:26 Kelly Knutson: @Gina, Deb Rosenfeld asked a few questions in chat above. I asked her to add to Q&A, but haven’t seen them yet! 01:13:59 Laurie Newman: We held a Tinkercad/3D printing course over the shut down, more for elementary children. The participants will have their items printed, then they can pick them up during our holds pick up. 01:14:18 Tamara Steward: Our library has Tech Makerlabs so I made sure to include those in our programming. It varied from making music, paracord bands and photo editing. 01:14:43 Jill Pappenhagen: will you be sharing these ideas from the chat? 01:15:26 Kelly Knutson: @Jill, we can share everything that was shared to “All panelists and attendees!” 01:16:51 Kelly Knutson: Molly! These are fantastic. Thanks for sharing and lovely to connect with you again! 01:17:24 Stephanie Bents: We want kids to explore by reading, too. Do you recommend incorporating books into your STEM learning strategies? 01:18:40 Jane Ellen France: At the STEM table...we put up displays of books that relate to the topic, for our virtual STEM we have developed a PDF with further learning activities as well as a book list of titles available for check out in the library 01:18:47 Jody Stejskal: We offer books and STEM material together as a kit. 01:20:06 Jane Ellen France: Jody...you circulate kits for take home or use in the library? 01:22:41 Jody Stejskal: Our public library is privately owned and funded and we have been closed since March. So when the kits were used in our library when pre-covid. 01:23:25 Jody Stejskal: We used in the library only but we were planning to duplicate the kits for check out, again prior to covid. 01:24:18 Jane Ellen France: Thank you Jody 01:24:26 Sandra Roberts: We have a "Beyond Book" collection with everything from building toys to microcontrollers, each paired with a book and available for loan. Very popular. 01:24:48 Stephanie Bents: Meghan, there' 01:25:00 Jody Stejskal: You're welcome! 01:25:01 Stephanie Bents: s a couple more in my system who need to hear this webinar. Is it recorded? 01:25:39 Megan Silander: Forgot to share this resource, too: https://youngmathematicians.edc.org/research/for-families/ 01:25:44 Bill Tally: Is the content of the chat available after the webinar? Useful for everyone! 01:25:59 Kelly Knutson: @Stephanie, yep, we’ll circulate a recording, all links and the presentation in a follow-up email! 01:26:13 Kelly Knutson: Alright, here come a couple more links! 01:26:15 Kelly Knutson: https://www.informalscience.org/projects/learn-experience/stem-learning-libraries https://www.edc.org/early-science-and-engineering-executive-summary https://www.nsta.org/blog/what-parents-talk-about-when-they-talk-about-learning-national-survey-about-young-children-and https://www.edc.org/what-parents-talk-about-when-they-talk-about-learning 01:26:34 Kelly Knutson: @Bill, yep, we will share! 01:26:54 Kelly Knutson: @Molly, yes please share! 01:27:20 Kelly Knutson: Here is a link to previous EDC webinars (and all webinars we’ve hosted in 2020): https://www.bibliotheca.com/events/ 01:28:05 Jody Stejskal: hoodamath.com has great STEM games and can be translated to hands=on 01:28:05 Allyson Bullock: Thank you! 01:28:06 Kelly Knutson: Thanks so much for joining us today!
