The 5 E's is an instructional model based on the constructivist approach to learning, which says that learners build or construct new ideas on top of their old ideas. The 5 E's can be used with students of all ages, including adults.

Each of the 5 E's describes a phase of learning, and each phase begins with the letter "E": Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, and Evaluate. The 5 E's allows students and teachers to experience common activities, to use and build on prior knowledge and experience, to construct meaning, and to continually assess their understanding of a concept.

From Outlier Research: "In all cases, it is clear that some of the most valued components of STEM schools are not STEM-discipline specific, but relate to broader, transferrable, lifelong skills…Educational philosophers such as Dewey, Piaget, Vygotsky, and Bruner have advocated for inquiry and constructivist approaches for over a century. They argued

for student autonomy, relevance, collaboration with peers, and learning-by-doing."

MULTI STEM

MULTI STEM is a Community Based Approach to Engaging Students and Teachers in Effective STEM Education

MULTI STEM (NSF 1615193) has been advancing efforts of the Innovative Technology Experiences for Students and Teachers (ITEST) program to better understand and promote practices that increase students' motivations and capacities to pursue careers in fields of science, technology, engineering, or mathematics (STEM) by implementing a strategy that purposefully combines educational methodologies based on the Global Learning and Observation to Benefit the Environment (GLOBE) program. Students have opportunities to increase knowledge and skills. Pre-service and in-service teachers will participate in sessions that will help them attract and retain students in education pathways to STEM careers. The goal is to modify and refine a community-based model that will comprehensively address teacher preparedness and student participation in STEM fields.

STEM Teaching Tools Unconference - August 4 to 7

The MULTI STEM team has been asked to serve as host for the upcoming regional STEM Teaching Tools Unconference sponsored by the ACESSE Collaborative, Council of State Science Supervisors, University of Colorado, and the University of Washington. "An unconference is a participant-driven meeting. The term 'unconference' has been applied, or self-applied, to a wide range of gatherings that try to avoid hierarchical aspects of a conventional conference, such as sponsored presentations and top-down organization." (Wikipedia) It is a meeting self-organized by participants into emergent workgroups around topics of interest. People vote with their participation. Attendees will come from states in the western region of the US to share innovative and equitable science pedagogy. MULTI STEM teachers will be asked to share some of the work they've been doing in their own classrooms.

A Community-based Approach to Engaging Students and Teachers
This video documents three years of work on an ITEST grant that represents a collaboration between Metropolitan State University of Denver, Community College of Denver, GLOBE, and University of New Hampshire. Our work has focused on broadening access to STEM pathways for students and families who are underrepresented in STEM opportunities. The video shares an overview of our project components--workshops for preservice and inservice elementary and secondary teachers, near peer mentorship of K-12 students by college students, and STEM career expos.

Perceiving Earth as a system begins when we first feel warmth from sunshine or get wet standing in the rain. Understanding Earth as a system – Earth System Science – requires a quantitative exploration of the connections among all parts (atmosphere, hydrosphere, lithosphere, and biosphere) of the system. The measurements of The GLOBE Program provide students with the means to begin this exploration for themselves.

The processes comprising the global environment are interconnected. Many of the major environmental issues of our time have driven scientists to study how these connections operate on a global basis – to understand Earth as a system.

GLOBE Data Explorations are classroom activities to help students learn how to analyze GLOBE environmental data while also learning atmospheric science concepts and geography.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
GLOBE Data Explorations are classroom activities developed by the UCAR Center for Science Education, a GLOBE Partner, to help students learn how to analyze GLOBE environmental data while also learning atmospheric science concepts and geography. The nine activities were reviewed by science educators and staff at the GLOBE Implementation Office and field tested by teachers.

Activities that are listed with an asterisks (*) have an option to get students analyzing data in spreadsheets. The spreadsheet file (and an answer key) are listed below the activity description. Click on the filenames and download the spreadsheets. If you will have your students use Microsoft Excel, then these files will be used as they are. If you will be having your students use Google Sheets, download these files and upload them into your Google Drive.
Getting Your Feet Wet With GLOBE Data (middle school activities)
Iowa's Highs and Lows: Students interpret a frequency distribution of GLOBE temperature data to decide whether statements about the weather are accurate, citing the parts of the graph they used as the basis of their decision.

Make a Climograph: Students learn how to construct, read, and analyze climographs and understand how climate differs from weather.

Climate and Latitude: Students match GLOBE temperature data with its location given what they know about the relationship between latitude and seasonal temperature variations.

GLOBE Data at Altitude: Through explorations of GLOBE temperature data from two nearby locations in Germany, students learn how temperature varies with altitude.
Telling Earth's Stories with GLOBE Data (middle and high school activities)
Weather Tourists : Students build geography skills while learning how to find data using the GLOBE Data Visualization tool, sharing what they have learned in a tourism poster for a GLOBE school location.

Students learn about the relationship between three infectious diseases and rainfall in the country of Benin.

Exploring Rainfall in the GLOBE Africa Region*: Through explorations of GLOBE rain depth data from Africa, students learn about seasonal patterns in locations affected by monsoons.

Comparing Croatia Climates* : Through explorations of GLOBE atmosphere data from Croatia, students will build understanding of two climate zones.

Investigating an Alaskan Spring Mystery*: Students learn about the timing of spring budburst, develop multiple working hypotheses about why timing differs year to year, and test hypotheses using environmental data collected by GLOBE students in Alaska to come to a conclusion about the factors that most impact timing of budburst on paper birch trees.
