SUMMARY:Harnessing AI for Science Educators
DESCRIPTION:Explore how you can integrate into\, and create AI tools for\, your classroom and meet members of STEMteachersNYC’s AI Working Group!\n\n\nKEY INFORMATION\n\nLOCATION: St. Francis College\, 179 Livingston St.\, Brooklyn\, NY\nDATE & TIME: Saturday\, November 22\, 2025\, 10:00am – 1:30pm including a working lunch\nLED BY: Tchnavia Merrick\, Allan Powe\, Brendan Harney\nCTLE HOURS AVAILABLE: 3.5hrs\nTHIS WORKSHOP IS FOR: K-16 teachers interested in incorporating and/or improving teacher-facing AI tools\n\nWORKSHOP DESCRIPTION\nDo you want to level up your AI skill set\, whether you are starting from scratch or you’ve got multiple iterations of your app working? This workshop will help you advance to your next level and discover how AI can solve real classroom challenges. \nWe will focus on teacher use cases starting with some basics like: what are the options? How do you design a prompt? How do you test and document what you’ve made? Join members of STEMteachersNYC’s Harnessing AI Working Group who will walk you through real examples of AI integration in STEM classrooms and get you logging in and using several of the available tools. This isn’t about replacing what makes you a great teacher\, it’s about amplifying it. \nNo tech expertise required. Just bring your curiosity\, a laptop\, your challenges\, and your commitment to meeting students where they are. Together\, we’ll demystify AI and transform it into your teaching superpower. Be ready to engage in this hands-on workshop and walk away with a fresh take on the rapidly changing AI landscape. \nWORKSHOP LEADERS\nAllan Powe (he/him) is a native New Yorker who teaches Biology at Regis High School in NYC\, bringing thirty years of scientific research experience and a passion for getting students excited about science. He previously taught Regents Chemistry and Biology for 3 years at Hyde Leadership Charter School and has worked with STEMteachersNYC to organize workshops and working groups on everything from biotechnology to AI in education. He’s passionate about mentoring the next generation of scientists from underrepresented communities. \nBrendan Harney is a science educator and department chair at the Bronx Lab School with 10 years of experience implementing project based curriculum across all science disciplines. He is always looking for ways to implement technology and new tools in his classroom\, and that has brought him into the STEMTeachersNYC AI Working group\, CIOB 25/26 AI Fellows\, and PlayLab 2025 Design Institute. Outside of the classroom\, he can be found literally outside either running or camping (with or without his students). \nTchnavia Merrick’s bio is coming soon. \nABOUT STEMteachersNYC\nSince 2011\, STEMteachersNYC has delivered professional development workshops for teachers\, by teachers\, about teaching.

SUMMARY:The Questioning Classroom
DESCRIPTION:Help your students ask more questions in your science classroom – questions that promote a sense of wonder\, and a love for learning!\n\n\nKEY INFORMATION\n\nDate/Time: Sunday\, October 26\, 1pm – 3pm\nLocation: St. Francis College\, downtown Brooklyn\nWorkshop Leader: Peter Davenport (bio below)\nAppropriate for: Teachers of all age levels\, especially those employing project-based learning with their students.\n2hrs of CTLE credit offered\n\nWORKSHOP DESCRIPTION\nHave you ever wished students would ask more questions in your science classroom\, questions that promote a sense of wonder and foster the desire to learn more? Designed for early and mid-career teachers\, this workshop will explore how to use the Question Formulation Technique (QFT) to get all of your students involved in asking (and answering) phenomenon-based questions throughout your units. We will also discuss how the QFT works as a formative assessment and in fulfilling many indicators in the Danielson framework. \nTHIS WORKSHOP IS PART OF AN AUTUMN SERIES for teachers using project-based curriculum working up to student-driven investigations and year-end project showcases. All are especially relevant to NYAS Scientist in Resident participants\, but all are welcome to join. Other workshops in this series include: \n\nSun\, 11/9\, Testable Questions (registration open soon!)\nSun\, 11/23\, Experimental Design (registration open soon!)\nSocratic Dialogue (more info coming soon!)\n\nWORKSHOP LEADER\nPeter Davenport has taught middle school life\, earth and physical sciences in The Bronx for the past 12 years. Prior to teaching\, he was a print journalist and editor\, and worked as an interpretive guide developing and leading outdoor programs at Walden Pond in Concord\, Mass.\, and with the Appalachian Mountain Club in New Hampshire. He holds an undergraduate degree in history and graduate degrees in teaching and environmental education.
