The goal at Intel is to create world-changing technology that enriches the lives of every person on earth. They created Intel Future Skills to ensure that future generations have access to the framework needed for a lifetime of problem solving through discovery through Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math (STEAM) learning. Intel invites you to join us as we build the next generation of STEM leaders by attending an Intel Future Skills Educator Academy. Our virtual hands-on and interactive academy will be facilitated by the educators who helped create Intel Future Skills and the Intel Future Skills team. Everything you need to participate in the academy will be mailed to your home.
By the end of the two day, four hour Intel Future Skills Educator Academy, you will: 1) Have developed a deeper understanding of design thinking and how it acts as a framework for Intel Future Skills; 2) Know more about each of the Intel Future Skills projects and categories; and 3) Be ready to deliver Intel Future Skills content with your students and community.

Over two 75-minute sessions with Jobs for the Future (JFF), you’ll learn how to use JFF’s free Possible Futures (PF) Engineering and Design curriculum unit to introduce students to careers that require an engineering mindset. How? The interactive lessons for grades 6-10 have students assume the role of professionals in the engineering field as they learn to prototype, iterate, and innovate. Thinking as young professionals, students are introduced to the design process, develop problem-solving and research skills, and learn to foster an engineering and growth mindset. JFF, a national nonprofit aimed at promoting economic advancement for all, designed the Possible Futures curriculum with a focus on STEM to help rethink how youth start to explore college and career options and to prepare them to make meaningful decisions about their future.Â
Get ready for interactive sessions that are designed to be a supportive learning community. You will be introduced to the 20-lesson unit and do some deep dives into lessons that use the engineering and design process to solve real-world problems. Participants will walk away with the knowledge and strategies they need to make the PF Engineering and Design unit work for their program.
