  1. Mapping a Pipeline to Enhance the E in STEM Education (ESTEME) Dr. Susan Belgrad Professor of Elementary EducationSTEM Innovations Team Leader

  2. The CSUN STEM Innovations Team is a dynamic collaboration between the Michael D. Eisner College of Education and the College of Engineering and Computer Science. We pursue a vision to provide a seamless, academic pipeline of early and sustained K-16 STEM curricula to educators in the Los Angeles Unified School District as well as schools and community colleges in the San Fernando, Simi and Santa Clarita Valleys. While CSUN is new to the PLTW Community, we recognize the need for elementary, secondary and post-secondary educators together with industry leaders, to move swiftly and strategically in delivering PLTW curricula.This presentation focuses on an action plan to promote a workforce development model that reaches diverse, underserved students through a Supported K-16 STEM School-to-College-Career Network, whichwe believe will assure their access to promising STEM employment and careers.

  4. Educators will increasingly look to STEM Career Professionals to lead the way to the future of this Nation. It is altogether fitting and proper that science, mathematics, computer technology and engineering educators lead the way to Next Century Learning. There is precedent: Here is is what the curriculum for the Industrial Revolution looked like in 1837.

  11. The Need to Collaborate to Accomplish What Seems to Be Impossible… Be Like Geese:

  12. People who share common direction and sense of community can get where they are traveling on the thrust of one another. Whenever a goose falls out of formation, it suddenly feels a drag and resistance of trying to go it alone, and quickly gets into formation to take advantage of the lifting power of the bird immediately in front. If we have as much sense as a goose, we will stay in formation with those who are headed the same way we are going

  13. PLTW: It is not the magic that makes it work; it’s the way we work that makes it magic!” Lee Cockerel, Exec. VP WDWorld
