Being online meant we could now reach a much broader audience.  Given that, we could engage them differently, explore new dimensions of the learning sciences, and pursue new connections.  And we would also need a theme&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This year&#8217;s theme is <a href=\"https:\/\/espace.bsu.edu\/researchfest\/connectedness\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"52\"><strong>Connectedness<\/strong>.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We didn&#8217;t choose this theme as much as it chose us.  In this festival, we&#8217;ll bring you the sciences of learning, some new teacher practices, and some creative expressions on the theme of Connectedness.  Besides research presentations from our department&#8217;s  students and faculty, we&#8217;ve invited teacher education students and faculty to join us.  And we&#8217;ve invited scholars from Ball State&#8217;s School of Art to extend our minds further than the field of educational psychology could alone.  <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/espace.bsu.edu\/researchfest\/join\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"48\">And we welcome more presentations and exhibits<\/a> <\/strong>from other scientists, artists, teachers and hybrids of the three to present.  We&#8217;re not sure how big we can make this grassroots, zero-budget event, but we&#8217;ll take in what we can until we hit our capacities for this year&#8217;s single-day event.  If all goes well, we&#8217;ll have to do this festival again.  And that would be a welcome challenge to pursue with all our new friends.    <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once we harvest all the content that seeks a place at this table, everyone is welcome at attend the festival, which will be online on Wednesday, December 16, 2020.  We need you to <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/espace.bsu.edu\/researchfest\/register\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"42\">register in advance<\/a><\/strong> so that we can manage the experience for everyone.  We ask that you attend as many presentations and exhibits as you can so that all the scholar-educators and scholar-artists who have put in time and effort to this event can meet you too.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/espace.bsu.edu\/researchfest\/how-this-festival-works\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"25\">Learn more about how this whole thing will work.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/espace.bsu.edu\/researchfest\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/85\/2020\/12\/2020FestivalInvitation.pdf\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"http:\/\/espace.bsu.edu\/researchfest\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/85\/2020\/12\/2020FestivalInvitation.pdf\"><strong>Read<\/strong><\/a> our invitation letter <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> So, enjoy the harvest and wander in this festival with us, friend!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/espace.bsu.edu\/researchfest\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/85\/2020\/12\/skinny-truck-breanna-763x1024.png\" alt=\"Skinny Truck Painting\" class=\"wp-image-322\" width=\"186\" height=\"250\" srcset=\"https:\/\/espace.bsu.edu\/researchfest\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/85\/2020\/12\/skinny-truck-breanna-763x1024.png 763w, https:\/\/espace.bsu.edu\/researchfest\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/85\/2020\/12\/skinny-truck-breanna-223x300.png 223w, https:\/\/espace.bsu.edu\/researchfest\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/85\/2020\/12\/skinny-truck-breanna-768x1031.png 768w, https:\/\/espace.bsu.edu\/researchfest\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/85\/2020\/12\/skinny-truck-breanna-1144x1536.png 1144w, https:\/\/espace.bsu.edu\/researchfest\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/85\/2020\/12\/skinny-truck-breanna-1526x2048.png 1526w, https:\/\/espace.bsu.edu\/researchfest\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/85\/2020\/12\/skinny-truck-breanna-730x980.png 730w, https:\/\/espace.bsu.edu\/researchfest\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/85\/2020\/12\/skinny-truck-breanna-435x584.png 435w, https:\/\/espace.bsu.edu\/researchfest\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/85\/2020\/12\/skinny-truck-breanna.png 2039w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 186px) 100vw, 186px\" \/><figcaption>Skinny Truck.
