STEM instruction integrates multiple STEM disciplines. Relevant GSE for math and/or science are the focus of the learning. Additional content disciplines (ELA, social studies, technology, fine arts, etc.) are integrated as applicable.
Educators serve as a facilitator of learning.
Learners are confronted with complex problems/projects which require them to think in complex ways and apply the knowledge and skills they have acquired.
Learning integrates the 4Cs – Creativity, Communication, Collaboration
Critical Thinking as well as developing soft skills and teamwork.
Learners engage in investigative research and/or apply the Engineering Design Process to develop solutions to real-world problems.
Evidence of STEM PBLs being implemented across courses and classrooms; STEM learning isn’t limited to a single classroom/course.
