STEAM Integrated Education
Science & Technology interpreted through
Engineering & the Arts,
all understood with elements of Math.
#STEAMeducation www.steamedu.com ©/TM 2006-2017
5-year progressive exploratory-based transformative triangulation mixed-
methodology study.
![Page 3: STEAM Education Professional Development Practicum & Research€¦ · Practicum & Research Georgette Yakman Pupils Attitudes Towards Technology - PATT July 11, 2017 –Philadelphia](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050601/5fa8a10d62b226317a30b9f4/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
STEM organizes the materials, principles &
processes of what & how things can be
done,
includes why & by whom things are done.

Framing Question:
How will receiving professional development on how to use
backwards design to create fully integrated thematic plans result in educators being able to write and deliver substantiated lesson plans including the broad spectrum of
technology and engineering?

Creating Integrative Themes
• Goal of creating curricula that is integrated across subject areas.
• Backwards design and mapping the standards from nine US-based widely used K-12 subject area groupings.
• Prior to our adding in links to the standards directly, most participants were aware of the standards in their own fields and also most often the recent updates to the science standards with the new release of NGSS in 2013 and Common Core being heavily adopted since 2009 and they included references to those standards in their plans.
• The grand majority of our participants did not know that standards existed for technology and engineering and that ITEEA standards were revised in 2007 and ASEE standards were developed in 2008.

Brainstorming Sheet Addition• Formatting of the lesson plans needed to be more concise.
• 2nd Year - mechanism by which people could contribute individually to an overview sheet where they would be able to see the alignments of benchmark cluster topics.
• Helped show the gaps in the educators plans, especially when no subject area experts in a subject were available.
• When educators worked without the brainstorming sheets,, fewer of them volunteered to fill in connections outside of their subject areas
• Highlighted for the educator the gaps of justification for its being fully integrated.

Limitations
• 2222 educators included in this study,
• 1699 educators in the first three years received their PD on-site and had access to only paper versions of surveys.
• 60 school sites, educators chose to have meetings and give collective answers to surveys, almost all of our programs the second year did this.
• Much of the collected data before 2014 is not included and only the interviews and surveys from 2012 and digital survey response records from 2014-2016 were used.

Collaboration Time• Abilities and attitudes of educators varied:
• some participants exceptional at creating lesson plans, • some excelled at linking them to projects meaningfully, • some were excellent at delivering the plans, • a very small percentage were good at all three primary elements.
• The administrators’ most significant challenge was finding the time for the staff to collaborate. Digital Learning Management Systems can help.
• In-person or live-time virtual networking with dynamic conversation with educational depth experts is clearly the key to a successfully planned, implemented, and maintained integrative program.
• If school systems can address the issue of educator collaboration time, there are strong indicators that is should significantly contribute to the structural stability of developing and maintaining integrative educational programs.
• Programs responded with three primary solutions for networking time: planning at least once monthly half days for collaboration, utilizing after-school meeting times, and creating on-line sharing networks, mainly using Google Docs.

Specifics of InterestMany of the participants, especially seasoned educators commented that the theoretical framework gave a research-based vocabulary to link to standards and methods that they could relate to most other multidisciplinary programs with which they were familiar.
An example of one is, “I truly support this movement, and have over the last 20 years of my career...I just didn't know it had a title.” Survey Response 8/8/2015.
The primary learning frustrations were with the learning experience, not the content.
