My artistic shelf by Joey Isakson https://padlet.com/joeyisakson19/4jvzfiwqsrup Made with a dash of wit en-us 2019-02-08 00:43:19 UTC 2019-02-08 01:18:43 UTC hello@padlet.com Take Away 1: STEM classes always  provide opportunity for  multiple right answers and approaches.  joeyisakson19 https://padlet.com/joeyisakson19/4jvzfiwqsrup/wish/329037321 2019-02-08 00:47:29 UTC https://padlet.com/joeyisakson19/4jvzfiwqsrup/wish/329037321 Take Away 2: One easy way to find great STEM lessons is simply by looking them up online. It is important to note that not all lessons called STEM will be STEM. joeyisakson19 https://padlet.com/joeyisakson19/4jvzfiwqsrup/wish/329037641 2019-02-08 00:49:20 UTC https://padlet.com/joeyisakson19/4jvzfiwqsrup/wish/329037641 Take Away 3: By incorporating math and science into the STEM lesson, Students can begin to see that science and math are not  isolated subjects, but work together to solve problems. joeyisakson19 https://padlet.com/joeyisakson19/4jvzfiwqsrup/wish/329038004 2019-02-08 00:51:24 UTC https://padlet.com/joeyisakson19/4jvzfiwqsrup/wish/329038004 Take Away 4: STEM lessons immerse  students in hands-on  inquiry and open­ ended exploration. This allows for differentiated instruction. joeyisakson19 https://padlet.com/joeyisakson19/4jvzfiwqsrup/wish/329038411 2019-02-08 00:53:53 UTC https://padlet.com/joeyisakson19/4jvzfiwqsrup/wish/329038411 Take Away 5:  In STEM lessons, students address real social, economic, and environmental problems and seek solutions. This helps to show real world connection. joeyisakson19 https://padlet.com/joeyisakson19/4jvzfiwqsrup/wish/329038838 2019-02-08 00:56:13 UTC https://padlet.com/joeyisakson19/4jvzfiwqsrup/wish/329038838 Take Away 1: In response to research question #1, What is STEM? 72.5%(161of222)of the respondents described STEM as it related to science, technology, engineering, or mathematics, yet the remaining 27.5% responded that they did not know or understand what STEM was. This shows that not many people are educated in STEM. joeyisakson19 https://padlet.com/joeyisakson19/4jvzfiwqsrup/wish/329039177 2019-02-08 00:57:59 UTC https://padlet.com/joeyisakson19/4jvzfiwqsrup/wish/329039177 Take Away 2: Even within an IHE where faculty members are extensively involved in multiple STEM projects and centers, there is no common operational definition or conceptualization of STEM. This is why many people do not understand STEM. joeyisakson19 https://padlet.com/joeyisakson19/4jvzfiwqsrup/wish/329039987 2019-02-08 01:02:32 UTC https://padlet.com/joeyisakson19/4jvzfiwqsrup/wish/329039987 Take Away 3: Most stake holders would agree regarding the need to increase STEM literacy for all people. I commonly see this. Many people I know believe that STEM should be more heavily incorporated in schools. joeyisakson19 https://padlet.com/joeyisakson19/4jvzfiwqsrup/wish/329040481 2019-02-08 01:05:11 UTC https://padlet.com/joeyisakson19/4jvzfiwqsrup/wish/329040481 Take Away 4: STEM is still a relatively new concept in the scheme of education. This acronym was not created until 2001 and the emphasis on STEM has only recently become major. joeyisakson19 https://padlet.com/joeyisakson19/4jvzfiwqsrup/wish/329041197 2019-02-08 01:08:46 UTC https://padlet.com/joeyisakson19/4jvzfiwqsrup/wish/329041197 Take Away 5: Research has found that the majority of the areas teaching STEM could be doing a lot better at it. They found that these areas are typically teaching old methods that do not get students interested in STEM. joeyisakson19 https://padlet.com/joeyisakson19/4jvzfiwqsrup/wish/329042319 2019-02-08 01:15:15 UTC https://padlet.com/joeyisakson19/4jvzfiwqsrup/wish/329042319 Take Away 1: Typically, each lesson is framed and focused on an essential or big question. This makes the lesson real world relevant. joeyisakson19 https://padlet.com/joeyisakson19/4jvzfiwqsrup/wish/329043147 2019-02-08 01:20:09 UTC https://padlet.com/joeyisakson19/4jvzfiwqsrup/wish/329043147 Take Away 2: The notion of engaging students to think like a scientist is indicative of the nature of inquiry and has become what could be considered a signature pedagogy of STEM education. joeyisakson19 https://padlet.com/joeyisakson19/4jvzfiwqsrup/wish/329056809 2019-02-08 02:47:11 UTC https://padlet.com/joeyisakson19/4jvzfiwqsrup/wish/329056809 Take Away 3: Although challenging to implement, inquiry-based instruction affords an opportunity to enact STEM as a multidisciplinary construct addressing timely and critical issues. joeyisakson19 https://padlet.com/joeyisakson19/4jvzfiwqsrup/wish/329057082 2019-02-08 02:48:55 UTC https://padlet.com/joeyisakson19/4jvzfiwqsrup/wish/329057082 Take Away 4: Recent research has demonstrated the effectiveness of guided inquiry over more traditional verification approaches to laboratory instruction joeyisakson19 https://padlet.com/joeyisakson19/4jvzfiwqsrup/wish/329057240 2019-02-08 02:50:11 UTC https://padlet.com/joeyisakson19/4jvzfiwqsrup/wish/329057240 Take Away 5: The core value of inquiry-based learning is rooted in a belief in the power of human experience. joeyisakson19 https://padlet.com/joeyisakson19/4jvzfiwqsrup/wish/329057880 2019-02-08 02:54:39 UTC https://padlet.com/joeyisakson19/4jvzfiwqsrup/wish/329057880
