[Michael C. Knowlton, M.Ed. @EdTech_Maestro]

@stemboss That is super cool. And humbling.

[Michael C. Knowlton, M.Ed. @EdTech_Maestro]

@LaytonsHistory Hi Chris! I am happy to see that reflection and revision was an integral part of your STEAM instruction. These two components are often overlooked.

[Michael C. Knowlton, M.Ed. @EdTech_Maestro]

We are challenging our teachers to facilitate student-led inquiry. In effect, we are transforming the classroom to enable student demonstration of mastery by placing emphasis on creativity, collaboration, communication, and critical thinking. #DESTEMchat

[Michael C. Knowlton, M.Ed. @EdTech_Maestro]

In essence, Innovate teachers and students seek the real-world ‘problems’ that affect us near and far and offer viable solutions in a collaborative environment. #DESTEMchat

[Michael C. Knowlton, M.Ed. @EdTech_Maestro]

Santa Rosa Innovate is able to get the community involved by collaborating on both local and global initiatives. #DESTEMchat

[Michael C. Knowlton, M.Ed. @EdTech_Maestro]

For example, our students have designed solutions for local, national, and global businesses from parking lot designs that maximize efficiency to prosthetic limbs that are cost-effective and readily available. #DESTEMchat
