Teaching with Technology
Recognizing that high-quality teaching is vital for student success, Dreams for Schools works with schools, teachers, and districts to hold workshops to deliver hands-on and effective professional development and technical trainings for teachers on incorporating 21st century technologies in their curriculums. To best support teachers, workshops are held during school hours, after school hours, or on weekends.
We provide the opportunity for educators to advance their professional skills with the integration of technology in an open classroom. Our professional development programs open the door for educators to delve into the world of technology with Design Thinking, Raspberry Pi, Sphero, Arduino, Scratch, Dash N’ dot, Mobile App Development and much more.

Scratch
Created by the Lifelong Kindergarten Group at the MIT Media Lab, Scratch teaches kids to program their own interactive stories, games, and animations.

Design Thinking
We help teachers discover solution based approaches to solving problems.

Sphero
Sphero is not just any robotic ball. Sphero is controllable with any smartphone or tablet and your kids will be able to pre-program movements in Java to make it move.

Raspberry Pi
The Raspberry Pi allows anyone with a monitor and keyboard to begin programming in minutes. Through practical projects kids and teens can work on their coding skills anywhere.

App Inventor
Created by Google and now maintained by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology the App Inventor allows students to create Android applications. Your kids will be learning the basic of Design Thinking and Mobile App Development in no time.
