[Michael Stewart @MPStewart13]

@PWCSNews Thank you for your support of my journey at @NSF @NSF_NSB this year via my Albert Einstein Distinguished Educator Fellowship (@AEF_Program #Einsteinfellows23)! I hope to make you all and especially Unity Reed HS proud! #STEMeducation @InsideNoVA

I am totally new to AI, and I have found https://t.co/tb6oOB8Owr to be a fantastic avenue to automatically record meetings, draft meeting minutes, and summarize meetings. For #TEACHers this can help capture lessons for absent students and draft department notes #Einsteinfellows23

I'm new to #AI in education. Where can I find resources for beginners? Tag your favorites and don't forget to use the hashtag #EinsteinFellows23 and ask others to join as we chat all day long.

What a wonderful experience taking with Thomas for @physicstp!!! I've loved the podcast for so 👏 many 👏 years 👏 and I truly enjoyed sharing! I hope to get together again and hopefully also talk with @RobinSGriffiths 😎

That Einstein Fellow is live! We chat with a Physics Teacher who has an amazing opportunity to influence at the highest level... Also: The DVEL'S in the detail #iteachphysics

[Michael Stewart @MPStewart13]

A2: Simply having the opportunity to participate in CS is so profoundly important. I worked, for example, at getting @arduino tech into my classroom (CS is way outside my background)... these small efforts with conversations on career paths truly help students

The intersectionality of identity is an important piece in creating a more equitable learning experience in CS classrooms and can provide more socially just outcomes. What strategies support the development of positive #STEM identities in students and adults? #EinsteinFellows23

[Michael Stewart @MPStewart13]

A1: @jerome_hruska is a tech and engineering teacher and robotics coach at @urhsteched who does an absolutely fantastic job growing CS skills in students! I am totally inspired by Jerome and the robots his @seaperch / @VEXRobotics teams build every year!!

Q1: Who inspires you? Tag someone to shine a light and recognize those whose work has contributed and harnessed the good in computer science. #EinsteinFellows23

[Michael Stewart @MPStewart13]

I'm Mike Stewart and my favorite #computerscience resources are 100% @codeorg and the @arduino website. I'm a novice amateur coder to which these are essential, accessible, affordable, and just plain fun! Easy for teachers and students at any age

@Bg_teach Oh hell yes! Literally, any subject can do this including non-stem subject.
But, yes, bad genetics is rampant in film! I want to do this now!! lol Also, you can "explain the real super hero skill" by looking at the broken science in the movie which is fun

[Michael Stewart @MPStewart13]

(A3) I've ended my years in Physics with a "Bad Physics Movie" project, where students find examples of bad physics in film and explain what's wrong. Bollywood, anime, and super hero movies are consistently terrible!! Works in any class

@DenisecWright @codeorg @AEF_Program I have seen so much success with coding at the elementary level!!! Across numerous 👏 states 👏. I hope teachers at all levels feel encouraged to try exploring and and including coding and robotics in their claims... it's doable and quite fun!

@cjbj9612 @AEF_Program Relatability can be so difficult to... *do* (phrasing?). For me, bad dad jokes work (once we're through the first semester and the students are it's okay to laugh)... it takes time but being a goof with students works, even though it's super embarrassing lol

(A2) What do you want to students to remember? This core question guides how informal learning opportunities connect to class standards/practices. Encourage students to apply their skill to anything: games, sports, shows, anything!

@agarriolapdx @AEF_Program There is so much that goes into good teaching! If only non-teachers knew what teachers do everyday
#EinstenFellows23

[Michael Stewart @MPStewart13]

(A1) I highly suggest elementary teachers follow @NCTM's and @NSTA's websites which house numerous structures and ideas for teachers. I've seen many preK-4 teachers utilizing https://t.co/pilkB63MTO to cover Math and Lit via comp sci activities

(Intro) My lifeline has always been my wife, Melissa, and our continuous effort to find balance between work and home-life. Balance is key to sustainability, and I truly feel most teachers do not find this balance, exacerbating to teacher burnout

@RKNomura Geee thanks frens!!! (Genuinely not trying to sound sarcastic, too lololol) #EinstenFellows23

[Michael Stewart @MPStewart13]

@science_wv85299 L 👏 O 👏 L 👏 so amazing so real

[Michael Stewart @MPStewart13]

@_fysteam @AEF_Program I've never coached because it seems like such a time dump... I'm glad you got so much out of the experience!! I'm sure your students loved seeing you in that coaching capacity!

@DenisecWright @SpaceForceDoD @usairforce These hands-on experiences are so imperative for teachers to keep their STEM passions kindled!
