Event Details: (6 weeks) We're all familiar with STE(A)M courses and STE(A)M hours; but what about a classroom or school that exudes a culture of STE(A)M thinking? How can we position students to use design thinking, exemplify the use of math practice standards, and experience the cross-cutting concepts of the Next Generation Science Standards throughout the day? This course will focus on designing instruction to reflect a STE(A)M culture across all activities of the day. Participants will design lesson plans and structures to use with their students.

Topics include:

Exploring the concept of developing in students the mindsets of scientists, technologists, engineers, and mathematicians throughout the day
Understanding and infusing the IDE Corp. Design Process into the learning environment
Connecting the NGSS, Standards for Mathematical Practice and design thinking across content areas
Developing structures and strategies that build a STE(A)M mindsets
