Educators need to embrace STEM to address the extrapolation of STEM careers that continues to grow. This STEM education focuses on more than just core subject but also skills like teamwork and communication that are job skills. This approach to education is meant to help close gaps that nation has faced in education before such as race and poverty. This publication aims to light the fire of creativity and allow teachers to have an idea of how to begin with STEM.

-Imagine the world without the impact of one visionary.
-Preserving show be rewards (think about late assignment after multiple times)
-Project based
-Redesign and collaborate ideas
-Engaging long term due to high interest
-Don’t want to stop thinking about the project means career interest
-Foster desire to discover
-Innovate through challenges
-Try to make a table 16 inches table newspaper and tape, hold 10 pounds of books- ask a child for helps. ]]> 2023-09-10 02:37:43 UTC https://padlet.com/stollcn93/STEMPortfolioCS/wish/2691912825 stollcn93 https://padlet.com/stollcn93/STEMPortfolioCS/wish/2691916133 Page 3: Charts the help guide backwards design.

(page 4)

Big Idea: What is the main idea or goal? this can be related to what the standards are stating needs to be taught but can also include student complete understanding and consideration for differently abled students.

Uncoverage: What does the student need to "see" they couldn't see before?

Disciplines: What do different people of different view points, such as careers or religion, think about this topic, what does students think?

Ideal Citizen: How does this info help make the student a better person? Is this ethical? Is it worth the process of learning?

As part of this predicted change, students may need to effectively navigate a number of virtual (or mixed reality) environments in the future. Preparing students to effectively navigate, contribute to and participate in virtual environments appears to be an important future set of STEM-related skills and knowledge. VR platforms also act as a potentially transformative educational tool. This chapter describes the VR Education Model (VEM), describing elements of this technology and its possible application in the classroom. The authors consider four elements of VR in its application as an educational tool including experiencing, engagement, equitability and everywhere. While future trends in education can be difficult to predict, the authors have described a number of possible scenarios that include but are not limited to the possibilities described in this chapter. The implementation of VR is discussed in terms of a broader STEM vision that meets the unique needs and priorities of each school. There are complex considerations about the integration of VR that educators may need to respond to if future predictions of how the technology will evolve are accurate.

Share Success- if you’re doing something great, admin might want to look in and find value on the lessons.  This will be easier to gain support.
2. Resources and Research- back your info up! There are tons of free resources especially for STEM that relate to the standards.  Be willing and open to sharing these resources.

Constructivist learning theory suggests that people create their own understanding and knowledge of the world through experiences and reflection on those experiences, a situation fostered through interdisciplinary projects when students create new connections between subject areas and the projects at hand, and have more free-choice with their learning. In some cases, it might not be feasible to integrate interdisciplinary projects in every aspect of the school curriculum, however incorporating a week of projects into the school term offers an opportunity for students to take more ownership of their learning."]]> 2023-10-08 14:11:38 UTC https://padlet.com/stollcn93/STEMPortfolioCS/wish/2737062497 stollcn93 https://padlet.com/stollcn93/STEMPortfolioCS/wish/2737067391 Resources here are designed to connect not only multiple subjects but also to aid in the connection of historical and scientific artifacts.
