• We would like to get to know you! • What is your name? • What do you do?
On a large post-it, record this info.
• How do you define STEM? What is your vision for STEM education?– Science, Technology, Engineering,
Mathematics• What does research say?• Video:
STEM Education-Tools to Change the World
• What are the 21st Century Skills? – Jot down some ideas– As a small groups record ideas on post-it (one
idea per post-it)• Large group share• The Partnership for 21st Century Skills
Framework– http://www.p21.org
Connecting to 21st Century Skills
While viewing video look for connections to the 21st Century Skills: 1.Content connections in relation to
Academic Standards & Skill applications 2.Creativity & Innovation 3.Work Environment & Collaboration
• Video: Using Virtual Technology to Assist in Rocket Design– Please take two minutes to independently
document observations.– In groups, identify top 5 connections related to
the area of focus. – Create a non-linguistic representation of your
top 5 connections – Gallery walk of “expert groups”
• Why is it important for students to have a strong background in STEM regardless of their lifelong aspirations?
• On July 14, the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Economics and Statistics Administration (ESA) released a new report that profiles U.S. employment in the science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) fields. The report, STEM: Good Jobs Now and for the Future, finds that:– In 2010, there were 7.6 million STEM workers in the United States,
representing about 1 in 18 workers. – STEM occupations are projected to grow by 17.0 percent from 2008 to
2018, compared to 9.8 percent growth for non-STEM occupations. – STEM workers command higher wages, earning 26 percent more than
their non-STEM counterparts. – More than two-thirds of STEM workers have at least a college degree,
compared to less than one-third of non-STEM workers. – STEM degree holders enjoy higher earnings, regardless of whether they
work in STEM or non-STEM occupations.
