In this course, you will research, develop and share lessons that you can use in your content area classroom to incorporate STEM. (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math). You will gather activities and create a plan for using these activities in your class. You will share your work using a Google Site. This course meets the STEM requirement for clock hours and by thoughtfully completing each step, you will gain great tools and ideas to use in your classroom while meeting the 15 hr. STEM requirement.
Take a look at some recommended guidelines for STEM education:
Addresses a real-world problem
Is driven by an engineering design process
Incorporates science and math
Involves students in teamwork
Allows multiple approaches and different possible solutions for a problem
Uses an inquiry-based teaching and learning approach
Involves innovation, entrepreneurship, and creativity
Includes the construction of a process or prototype.
