Defining STEM

This article explores the concept of integrated STEM education and its benefits for creating a student-centered learning environment. It discusses the importance of incorporating science, technology, engineering, and mathematics in a way that addresses students' social, emotional, physical, and academic needs. The article also examines different approaches to quantifying the range of STEM integration and provides examples of STEM 2.0, STEM 3.0, and STEM 4.0 programs.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Defining STEM An examination of an integrated STEM program Dr. JP Keener

  2. Florida STEM: STEM education is the intentional integration of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics, and  their associated practices to create a student-centered learning environment in which students investigate and engineer solutions to problems, and construct evidence-based explanations of real-world phenomena with a focus on a student’s social, emotional, physical, and academic needs through shared contributions of schools, families, and community partners.

  3. Quantifying the Range of STEM • We recognize that STEM may be seen as a range of integration and application. • A science class without any of the other STEM components may be seen as STEM. • A fully integrated science class with all STEM components may also be seen as STEM. • How do we quantify our program?
