Workshop description
Presenting Dan Hartzell and the Cambria Youth Institute Tech Teach/Film Crew. The presenters are local Middle School and High School students that have mastered the skills needed for this workshop.
The Youth Institute Tech Teach/Film Crew will provide project-based training where participants will apply technology to lessons that would be taught to youth. Projects will be cross-curricular STEM lesson focused. Examples of lessons may include creating a stop animation video, making an infomercial, and/or creating a tutorial video.
Each topic covered will provide ways to extend on concepts and skills learned, how to relate these skills to state standards, STEM, Common Core, and enhance classroom learning. Time will be allowed for individual questions following each session. Sessions will be facilitated with help of High School and Middle School Tech Crew students.

- Experience cross-curricular STEAM project-based training that applies technology to lessons that can be used with any learner.
