The showcase will use Livestream, Instagram, Facebook and twitter, and Google Hangout to share and personalize student’s exposure to environmental science while encouraging others in the educational realm to duplicate partnerships with institutions such as Heal the Bay, U.S. Army Corps Of Engineers, and Friends Of the LA River. The demonstration of social media for good will be the underlying theme. The Army Corps of Engineers will present E-Cyber Competition, where four teams (one for each grade level) will be formed between now and Jan 15, 2014. 4 Hrs

12:00~ 2:00
In the past few years, IndyCar has made a big push on social media to attract a new generation of fans. Word-of-mouth and generations of familial fans aren’t the only means by which the race car circuit is attempt to attract fans, teams, and drivers. In the digital age, IndyCar needed a new approach, and an angle that appealed to a new demographic that was previously untapped. Dakar Interactive and Cedar Grove Entertainment will discuss case studies on how social media’s impact has brought in a whole new audience. The main purpose is showcase how Social media can reach out to specific STEM and Diverse communities to provide them with targeted information that they need in a very accessible way. The proposed workshops will examine some of the many ways that learning support can adopt to increase the use and uptake of resources by encouraging student engagement, seeing students as partners in the communication and promotion of information services using social media.

Session 3 Race Matters, Dissecting The Digital Divide #smwRACEMATTERS
Race Matters was born out of the need to find solutions for Compton High School’s principal and a science teacher to get their kids a STEM program that they can be proud of. This discussion will examine the success and struggle in tackling all aspects of the new digital divide or their risk in failing more students and falling further behind in the global race to produce a more competitive workforce. What we know: Less than half of minority households have access to computers with the Internet, versus more than two-thirds of white households. Even though more than 90 percent of schools today have computers with Internet access, the computers are often too old to be compatible with current educational software and the Internet access often is slow and unreliable. What we’ve targeted: Students in poorer and largely minority schools generally have less access to the computers, software, and online learning tools that could possibly make a real difference in their education. A new digital divide has emerged: between those educators, parents and students re-imagining teaching and learning for the 21st century using technology, and those who are not. What we’re doing: Recruiting activist technologist, social media engineers, public and private partners to provide hardware, software, universal high speed Internet access to targeted schools like Compton High school. What’s the desired outcome: Create and share through social networks and virtual townhalls successful case studies such as; Waldorf Schools, ConnectToCompete, and longer school-open hours to shrink the digital divide that kids face during the hours and days they’re not in school without broadband in the home. Lastly training for teachers so that they understand how best to use technology.
