@joshgiesbrecht Let's connect one day! I live in Langley so I'm not too far from you and I have questions about how you do text based coding with middle schoolers!

[Nicole Vieira @tinkerbell_atSW]

@joshgiesbrecht Excellent points! I love delivering pro d sessions like this because I love to see how different perspectives view the crossover and differences between CT and MT! So glad you made it to the session! I learned a ton from you in yours too! :)

[Nicole Vieira @tinkerbell_atSW]

I love finding math in places you don't often search for it.. like in coding amazing images using pj5s. Thanks @joshgiesbrecht for getting me back into this kind of coding at #BCAMTbelong #SWTechUp #CanCode

[Nicole Vieira @tinkerbell_atSW]

Grateful for the opportunity in this "Emergent place-based math" session at #BCAMTbelong to go on a math walk. These stuck out to me! Not only am I curious about the math and symmetry, I'm curious about how to replicate these designs when coding #SWTechUp #CanCode

[Nicole Vieira @tinkerbell_atSW]

My inner math nerd is geeking out so hard that I can combine my two passions: math and coding with tools I'm already used to using?! #BCAMTbelong (and yes I'm obvs in the front row)

[Nicole Vieira @tinkerbell_atSW]

@joshgiesbrecht Super looking forward to your session!!!

@MrsCleaveley @Central_Hawks I'm so sorry for the late reply, I was on vacation, but I just messaged you back! Hope to chat soon!

@DanielHugill @scienceworldca Hi! I'm the curator of the Tinkering Gallery and would love to use this video as the example that plays on the screen in the back! DM me if you'd be interested in sharing it! :)

@ryanejenkins @TinkeringStudio @wonderfulideaco I really want to implement something like this in our Tinkering Space. The wooden connectors that the dowels are in.. Do all of them have the same spacing of holes? Or do you have a variety of spacings?

[Nicole Vieira @tinkerbell_atSW]

@uptownyumiko @sfu_library I love this! Definitely want to try this out with a group!

Thank you @TGRFound for an amazing webinar on a Saturday morning and introducing me to the Engagement Equation! As someone with a pure math background this was exactly the lens I needed to look through to make sense of it all!

[Nicole Vieira @tinkerbell_atSW]

@ZibinDarcie @KylaLCameron @LEGO_Education @scienceworldca I was really inspired by the lesson library on the Lego WeDo software. I found that I was able to read through some of those then create other activities. I also found it fun to create something first then design a question prompt from there. DM me if you want to chat more!

[Nicole Vieira @tinkerbell_atSW]

@CarrieAntoniazz I am just seeing this now!!!! I NEED to know how it went with your class!!!!!!

[Nicole Vieira @tinkerbell_atSW]

Shameless promotion that this article is about me and my job 😁

Science World pivoted in March 2020 to serve Educators online...

And we're still going strong, even after we re-opened our doors "under the Dome" @scienceworldca
