Since 2001, the Student
Technology Showcase has
been a much anticipated
part of CUE’s annual
conference in Palm Springs. The Showcase was originally
sponsored by the California Department of Education and
supported by the California Technology Assistance Project
regions and featured student technology integrated projects that
aligned with the CA state standards. With the introduction
of the Common Core State Standards and the focus on STEAM and the Maker Movement, CUE is re-imagining the 2016 Showcase to reflect how students are learning by doing. The CUE Student-Powered Showcase (SPS) will invite attendees to actively
participate with students in creating, problem solving and
learning. Attendees may collaborate with students on a robotics
or 3D printing project, or they may get down on the floor to
figure out how a Sphero works.
The showcase is guided by a Task Force of innovative CUE
members and is produced in partnership with the Orange
County Department of Education.
