Twin Lakes Academy Middle School Developing Black History Month NFTs
Honoring Black History Month is a tradition filled with parades,
breakfast events, luncheons, dinners and social celebrations in
honoring men, women, boys and girls throughout history.
BHM 2022 is seeing a change because of the advancements of digital
tools and platforms. The Metaverse, NFTs and other advancing tech
is giving rise to digital expressions of celebration and honoring
those of the past.

Twin Lakes Academy STEAM students have built some amazing digital
NFTs in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and amazing digital NFT
business cards to start the process of business ownership and
entrepreneurialism. Students will be using these digital skills and
more in the future as business owners and entrepreneurs. These
projects based learning opportunities represent the value of project
based learning and engagement in digital environments that students
will have to be able to travel through, build, create and manage as the
Metaverse and Web 3.0 environments are created.

The value that STEM, STEAM and STREAM have in connecting with the
future of the Metaverse, NFTs and Web 3.0, NFTs (Non Fungible Tokens)
shows the importance of The Arts and Artistic Expression as it relates
to technology. The use in learning concepts of Design and Modeling
builds perspectives on digital and real options for employment and
preparation for life in a growing digital age.

As STEAM Educators and Advocates for STEAM Learning my wife and I
are very proud of all the students and their successes and the continued
growth and development they are showing. Continued learning means
that they will meet with success, advancement in digital careers and not
be left behind as the world changes and embraces technology that will
increase the engagement of humans, digital spaces, robotics and digital
currencies. Presented are works that students have created in the STEAM
classes of William and Aida Jackson
