Culture of Schooling ≠ Culture of Innovation
Schools
• Individual Achievement
• Disciplinary Teaching
• Avoid Failure and Risk
• Passive Consumption
• Extrinsic Rewards – ‘carrots and sticks’
Innovation
• TEAMWORK is Key!
• Inter-disciplinary Solutions
• Fail Early, Fail Often! - ‘F’ is the new ‘A’
• Requires Creating
• Instrinsic Motivation, – Interest, Passion, and Purpose

To what extent are you and your school/district implementing or evaluating STEM programs?
• Just seeing what it's all about. 1 – Interested
• We have just begun exploring the integration of STEM programs into our curriculum 2 – Evaluating
• We are in the process of developing our STEM program. 3 – Planning
• We were just named a STEM school. I am excited about learning more about integrating STEM into all areas of the curriculum.
4 – Beginning
• We are a STEM school and are always in the middle of an integrated STEM project 5 – Implementing

STEM Education Objectives
• Science – Analyzing problems systematically – Inquiry process
• Technology – As a means of communication – To model and test learning
• Engineering Process – Prototype ->Test -> Debug -> Redesign
• Math – Language of science and technology – Iteration and conditionals – Coordinates, variables, and random
numbers
Solve a problem using the tools (technology) and resources (science and math) available

Collaborate
“There's a lot of people out there who care and want to do the right thing: the businesses, they know the skills that they need for their employees, but hey don't know how to talk to the schools,. The schools know what they need to do to pass their state tests, but they don't know how to talk to businesses.” – Cindy Moss, Charlotte Mecklenburg Schools, 18th largest in US

The Camp Invention program instills
vital 21st century life skills such as
problem-solving and teamwork
through hands-on fun!!!!

Toy Challenge Competition •A national toy design challenge for 5th-8th graders.
•A chance for teams of imaginative kids to create a new toy or game.
Toys are a great way to learn about science, engineering, and the design
process! As girls and boys create a toy or game, they experience engineering
as a fun, creative, collaborative process, relevant to everyday life.
When they form their own plans and come to their own conclusions, students
not only retain what they’ve learned better, but they also feel more
empowered, motivated and fulfilled.

FIRST Lego League
Each yearly Challenge has two parts, the Project and the Robot Game. Working in teams of three to ten children and guided by at least one adult coach, teams: •Build an autonomous robot to carry out pre-designed missions in 2 minutes and 30 second
•Analyze, research, and invent a solution to a real world problem
FIRST LEGO League (FLL) is a global program created to get children excited about science and technology. A hands-on program for ages 9 to 16 (9 to 14 in the U.S. and Canada), FLL uses Challenges based on real world scientific problems to engage children in research, problem solving, and engineering.
