Middle + High School: Future Ready Skills with Real World Connections
Designed to immerse ABC CREATE Middle School and High School educators and administrators in the dynamic revitalization activities in the New Kensington region, this work session will update educators about current and upcoming opportunities with the Digital Foundry (and other PSNK Nextovation efforts).  Educators will co-design  future learning opportunities like professional development for teachers and field trips for students that will engage educators and students with industry professionals and with the technologies and processes available through the Digital Foundry. We want to be sure that future PD and field trips meet the needs of our ABC CREATE educators and students, so your input is imperative!

FALL CONVENING

Our ABC CREATE Fall Convening 2018 kicked off with a morning work session. Mid-day, industry and educational leaders came together for an introductory discussion about how the digital industrial age, known as Industry 4.0, is changing the way companies, education providers and partners are interacting, doing business and preparing for the future. The afternoon concluded with a sharing out of action steps from the morning work sessions and a debrief about how the digital revolution is impacting education.
