STEM Growing Imaginations through Concept Based Curriculum A Presentation by Shannon M. Colburn

What is blooming in your students’ brains?  Science  Technology  Engineering  Mathematics

Think and Respond  What is _______________  Science  Technolgy  Engineering  Mathematics What’s the difference?

New vs. Renamed  Is STEM really a new idea or are we giving what we already do in our classrooms a new name?  YOU do this already and perhaps just don’t recognize it under this new acronym.

Concept-Based Units  By using CBCUs to teach gifted students, you are not chained to one discipline at a time.  Keep it global (BIG)  i.e. Diversity, Influences, Balance  Add to your framework with interest based project opportunities

Project Based Learning  Real world problem solving  Creative Thinking  Critical Thinking  Higher Order Questioning  Analytical Reasoning  Cooperative and Collaborative Grouping  Improved Communication Skills  Intrinsic Gratification for Helping with World Problems

“Makers”  “ Makers are typically driven by their curiosity for learning and creating new things, as well as by an interest in sharing their work and processes with others.”  AnnMarie Thomas in Engaging Students in the STEM Classroom through “Making”

How to plug into the world of STEM  Maker Faires and Mini-Maker Faires  Project Based Learning  Type III Driven Instruction  Disney’s Imagineering  Real World Problem Solving

Replicating Success:PBL

Don’t Fret Yet  All activities do not and should not be projects.  Have realistic expectations.  You have a very limited time with your students-just do what you can.

The Test of Time  Challenge Practice Ready Set Go

Who Won the Lottery?

What Now?  Quick tips for limited amounts of time-  Minute-to-win-it challenges  CPS for kids  Legos and other “construction” activities  i.e. kinex, marble run, architectural and design kits

Exit Ticket  On your exit ticket, please tell how you feel about STEM now approaching it as a multidisciplinary idea as opposed to 4 disciplines.  How will you address STEM/ will you address STEM in your classroom after today?
