"If this is what learning can feel like, surely we all deserve to learn this way."Rather than spend days listening to a series of speakers, CMK 2023 is about action. Attendees work on personally meaningful projects and interact with educational experts concerned with maximizing the potential of each learner. Animation, robotics, engineering, filmmaking, music composition, 3D printing, programming, wearable computing, Arduino, BBC micro:bits, microcontrollers, storytelling, and photography are all part of the CMK 2023 mix. The learning environment is filled with stimulating “objects to think with,” including a library, art supplies, and a mountain of tools & materials for tinkering. Constructing Modern Knowledge, now celebrating its 14th anniversary, is a minds-on institute for educators committed to creativity, collaboration, and computing. Inspirational guest speakers and social events round out a fantastic event. See what makes Constructing Modern Knowledge unique.
- Kelly Watson. 5th grade teacher. Geelong, Australia.
At my previous school, we sent a team of teachers to CMK every year for 7 years. It was the best professional development for my teams. We worked and learned together and with educators from around the world. We pushed out of our comfort zones and met challenges, and we discovered we could really shift our practices in school in meaningful ways.
