Revealing the STEM Talents of Neurodivergent Learners
Show Notes

This edWeb podcast is sponsored by The Educating All Learners™ Alliance (EALA), An InnovateEDU Project. The webinar recording can be accessed here

Some problems need people who think differently—who think systematically and creatively and see the world in ways others may not. Some students who underperform in class might just be the problem solvers to help tackle the grand challenges we face in our society when they are given a chance to shine. TERC’s research shows that computational thinking activities can reveal the hidden talents of neurodivergent learners.

This edWeb podcast provides educators, specialists, and administrators with examples of teaching and learning tools that help build elementary and middle school students’ computational thinking while supporting the executive function needs of all learners. Watch to learn how you, your school, or your district can use Including Neurodiversity in Foundational and Applied Computational Thinking (INFACT), funded by the U.S. Department of Education’s Education Innovation and Research program, to support inclusive STEM problem-solving.

This recorded edWeb podcast is of interest to elementary and middle school teachers, school and district leaders, and education technology leaders.
