  1. 2012 EEA Day 1 Principal session

  2. Agenda

  3. Outcomes • Principals will: • receive an overview of the EEA 2012 Elementary STEM Content Sessions. • analyze the attributes of a “STEM Learning Environment.” • identify the role of the teacher to plan, monitor, and evaluate STEM activities in the classroom. • examine the administrator’s role to incorporate STEM in the content areas.

  4. STEM Standards of Practice “Big Ideas”

  5. 2012 EEA Elementary STEM: 3 Day Overview Day 1 Day 2 Day 3

  11. How Do You STEM? 2012 EEA Day 2 Elementary STEM (Teachers)

  12. STEM Learning Experiences

  13. Stop, Think, Ask, and Connect (STAC) S Stop during your STEM learning experiences to check for understanding and connect content. T Think about the content, practices and/or processes you will use or are using during your learning experiences. A Ask yourself and/or others questions to clarify expectations, to investigate global issues, or to solve real world problems or challenges. C Connect learning experiences to global issues, problems or challenges.

  15. How to Begin a STEM Lesson or Unit • Start with the content (e.g. Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics, Social Studies, English Language Arts, Fine Arts, Library Media, Physical Education…). 2. Enduring Understanding: Identify a real world problem. • Essential Questions: Begin to ask questions that would explore the problem and eventually solve the problem. 4. Transdisciplinary Connections. Students ask questions, investigate global issues, solve problems or meet challenges that connect to science, technology, engineering, mathematics, and other disciplines. • STEM Standards of Practice: Engage in meaningful, purposeful, and relevant STEM activities using the Stem Standards of Practice Framework Instructional Guide; student skills and knowledge, instructional notes and examples, resources, and glossary.
