(PRE) CONCEPTIONS
(PRE)CONCEPTIONS
USE THE SHEET PROVIDED… Write the CITY and STATE where you work (at the top). Write a 3 DIGIT CODE (that you will remember )
ANSWER THESE QUESTIONS:
1. WHAT IS STEM?
2. WHAT IS INTEGRATED STEM?
3. HOW DO PARTNERSHIPS IMPACT INTEGRATED STEM?

TRY IT (#1)TRY IT! (#1)
Pick a partner
Pick an index card
Write out directions for someone else
to draw your picture

TRY IT! (#2)TRY IT! (#2)
Draw the picture
Based on written directions from
your partner
![Page 5: STEM INTEGRATION FRAMEWORK ASTE January 2014 San Antonio, TX ASTE January 2014 San Antonio, TX DRS. Andrea Burrows, Tim Slater, Mike Borowczak, and Ms](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ece5503460f94bdba3f/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
TRY IT! (#3)TRY IT! (#3)
Compare your picture to the picture that your partner used to
write the directions
How close was your picture to the actual picture (original)?
Why does “matching” the original picture matter?
Why doesn’t “matching” the original picture matter?
How does this relate to the integrated STEM question?

SO WHAT?
The key to collective understanding of integrated
STEM
in the education community is defining
the picture
The picture in this case is INTEGRATED STEM
SO WHAT?

I-STEM
INTEGRATED STEM – Why and What?• Improve K-12 College readiness skills
And• Enhance the quantity and quality of students
pursuing STEM related careers

WHY NOW?WHY NOW?
I-STEM is a source of ambiguity• SANDERS, 2009
Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS)• They are here!
If we are asked to use it…• We should be able to do it and explain it!

GROUP DEFINITION
Project based• Specific goal (e.g. engineering or others – product
based)
Making relationships explicit (STEM)
Definitions are nebulous
Context for learning that drives personal
engagement
Buy in from all the areas at once brings additional
value• Mixed groups (cooperative setting)
Come together around projects• Inquiry based
The complexities of cross-disciplinary teaching
(e.g. teaching out of subject matter – quality)

NGSS
PRACTICES
• Formulating a problem – instead of only a question
CROSSCUTTING CONCEPTS• Apply to all realms of science
DISCIPLINARY CORE IDEAS• Importance, Concept, Tools, Real-world
NGSS

CONVENTIONAL TEACHER PREPARATION
CONVENTIONAL TEACHER PREPARATION
• TRADITIONAL MODEL Pathway• Undergraduate trained in a discipline while
taking education classes for certification• ALTERNATIVE MODEL Pathway• Person trained in a discipline taking
education classes for certification
• Biggest difference – …experiences prior to certification

DISCONNECTDISCONNECT
Trained in one discipline
Expected to incorporate many disciplines

BIG QUESTION:
If “integration is crucial” how do pre-service
and in-service teachers connect to I-STEM?
![Page 14: STEM INTEGRATION FRAMEWORK ASTE January 2014 San Antonio, TX ASTE January 2014 San Antonio, TX DRS. Andrea Burrows, Tim Slater, Mike Borowczak, and Ms](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ece5503460f94bdba3f/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

5-TIER I-STEM FRAMEWORK5-TIER I-STEM FRAMEWORKIMAGINE A TARGET
• LEVEL 0 = Single Discipline• LEVEL 1 = 2 Disciplines• LEVEL 2 = 3 Disciplines• LEVEL 3 = Engineering Projects
highlighting S, T, & M• LEVEL 4 = Constant Integration
(BULLSEYE!)

ASSESSMENT OF I-STEM?ASSESSMENT OF I-
STEM?
INSTRUCTION, MATERIALS, AND ASSIGNMENTS…• Emphasize ONE discipline/possibly TWO?• Expose learners to same phenomena from SINGLE
discipline? • Expose learners to same phenomena from MULTIPLE
disciplines?• Engineering projects with real-world S, T, and M
connections? • Show seamless integration of STEM…

INTERVIEW TEACHERS?INTERVIEW TEACHERS?
INTERVIEWS COULD:• Show insight into what teachers are teaching (pre vs.
post?)• Show teacher openness/willingness/eagerness• Show teacher growth
Could this approach lead to discussion about Integrated
STEM?
How would administrators find the time for these
discussions?

THINGS TO CONSIDERTHINGS TO CONSIDER
Where do partnerships come from?
What is the added value of partnerships?
Is defining I-STEM (Creating a Framework) important?
Why or why not?• IF IT IS –
How is it defined? By Whom? How is it assessed? By Whom?
• IF NOT – Why push “integrated STEM?”
What feedback do you have to add to the 5 tiers? I-STEM
concept(s)?

EARLIER)
ANSWER THESE QUESTIONS:
1. WHAT IS STEM?
2. WHAT IS INTEGRATED STEM?
3. HOW DO PARTNERSHIPS IMPACT INTEGRATED
STEM?

MOVE BEYOND… TO…MOVE BEYOND… TO…
SCIENCE TEACHERS NEED TO:• MOVE BEYOND – The rhetoric to integrate STEM• MOVE TO – Specialized knowledge relating to teaching science –
including PCK (Shulman, 1987)
Purposely break down discipline walls
Expect I-STEM approaches and attitudes
