1 THINKING OUTSIDE THE BOX INTEGRATING STEAM (SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, ENGINEERING, ARTS, AND MATH) INTO YOUR CLASSROOM

2 “Where science ends, art begins.” Charles Nègre (1820–1880) photographer

3 2008 Georgette ‘george’ Yakman a PhD Student at Virginia Polytechnic and State University presented her paper on the education theory of STEAM.

4 STEAM = SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY INTERPRETED THROUGH ENGINEERING & THE ARTS, ALL BASED IN MATHEMATICAL ELEMENTS.

5 STEM VERSUS STEAM STEM Integrates science, technology, engineering and math to design products and solutions. Most engaging for students who gravitate towards science and math. Teachers who do not teach science or math are not involved. STEAM Emphasizes creative problem solving and innovation through language arts, visual arts and performing arts. Provides new access to science and math for some by tapping creative abilities and expression. All teachers participate in meaningful whole school involvement.

6 APPROACHES TO STEAM teaching and learning practices when the subjects are purposefully integrated one field may be the dominant base field, or all may be blended unilaterally

7 WORKING MODEL OF STEAM SHIP BUILDING UNIT Would include broad or in-depth studies of: science of water structural materials and buoyancy factors geography technology of machines concepts and skills that allow for the construction, production, transportation, communication and power and energy engineering of planning and design with any constructs mathematics needed to comprehend and develop ships at all levels physical, manual, fine and liberal arts used for both large and intricate elements of ship building which includes:  history  politics  language arts

8 FORENSICS Fingerprinting Analysis Chromatography DNA Jewelry Facial Reconstruction

9 FINGERPRINT PATTERNS Arches lines cross smoothly or up thrust at center Plain Arch (Road Test) Tented Arch (Camping Tent) Loops lines rise, curve and return (lake) Whorls lines form concentric circles, whirlpools or spirals (target)

10 FINGERPRINTING PATTERNS

11 HISTORY OF FINGERPRINTING 1858 Sir William Herschel, British Administrator in District in India, requires fingerprint and signatures on civil contracts. 1880 “Nature” an article by Dr. Henry Faulds is published about fingerprints as a means of personal identification and the use of printers ink as a method of obtaining fingerprints. 1891 Juan Vucetich in Argentina initiates the fingerprinting of criminals. 1892 Anthropologist, Sir Francis Galton, publishes the first book on fingerprints which identifies the individuality and uniqueness of fingerprints. 1892 Jaun Vucetich makes the first criminal fingerprint identification. 1901 Sir Edward Henry develops the first system of classifying fingerprints. 1903 Fingerprints began to be used as a reliable means of identification in prison systems. 1908 U.S. Military adopts the use of fingerprints. 1924 Formation of ID Division of FBI 1980 First computer data base of fingerprints is developed which later became known as the Automated Fingerprint Identification System (AFIS).

12 a process in which a chemical mixture carried by a liquid or gas is separated into components separation is a result of differential distribution of the solutes as they flow around or over a stationary liquid or solid phase such as paper, gelatin, or magnesia CHROMATOGRAPHY

13 TYPES OF CHROMATOGRAPHY gas chromatography- technique that can be used to separate organic compounds that are volatile liquid chromatography - technique that is useful for separating ions or molecules that are dissolved in a solvent ion exchange chromatography -method for the purification of proteins and other charged molecules, positively charged molecules are attracted to a negatively charged solid support affinity chromatography- designed to purify a particular protein from a mixed sample.

14 DNA (DEOXYRIBONUCLEIC ACID) DNA contains the instructions needed for an organism to develop, survive and reproduce. DNA is found inside a special area of the cell called the nucleus. Cell size requires each DNA molecule to be tightly packaged into a chromosome. Researchers refer to DNA found in the cell's nucleus as nuclear DNA An organism's complete set of nuclear DNA is called its genome Humans and other complex organisms have a small amount of DNA in cell structures known as mitochondria which generates the energy the cell needs to function properly In sexual reproduction, organisms inherit half of their nuclear DNA from the male parent and half from the female parent Organisms inherit all of their mitochondrial DNA from the female parent
