McComas, William F.; Burgin, Stephen R. – Science & Education, 2020
While a mutually agreed-upon definition of STEM education remains elusive, there is no doubt that instructional models and ideas put forward with the STEM label have had a tremendous impact on thinking, debate, and practice in schools worldwide. At issue is the degree to which some or all the STEM disciplines must be taught in a concurrent or…

Genfu Wu; Kejie Wu – Journal of Biological Education, 2024
Course-based undergraduate research experience (CURE) exposes an entire class of students to scientific research and is thought to increase students' knowledge retention in science, technology, engineering and mathematics education. Microbial engineering is an interdisciplinary subject that combines science and engineering. We transformed a…

Phillips, Emily; Doran, Erin; Robertson, Laura; Nivens, Ryan Andrew – Teaching Science, 2022
Integration of content areas allows students to deepen and transfer knowledge. An area that allows for an organic integration of STEM content is through combining mathematics with science instruction. This paper describes how we integrated a lesson coupling flower structure with data representation in a Year 3 classroom. The lesson occurred over…

Haskell, Todd; Borda, Emily; Boudreaux, Andrew – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2022
The structure of many science programs at the college level assumes that students are able to draw on and integrate ideas from multiple disciplinary contexts. However, most assessment tools focus on learning in the context of a single discipline. We describe the development and validation of an instrument to measure how well students are able to…

Wong, Joseph T.; Bui, Nu N.; Fields, Damani T.; Hughes, Bradley S. – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2023
Traditional teacher professional development (PD) programs frequently lack sufficient face-to-face preparation time to adequately support the implementation of evidence-based pedagogical strategies in classrooms, with teachers citing insufficient preparedness and training time for new methods. To investigate potentials for online PD methods to…
