<b style="font-family: Times; font-size: 16px;">Abstract </b><span style="font-family: "times"; font-size: 16px;">As federal and state policies continue to emphasize the need for STEM Education reform, it is important to understand how a collaboration between industry, academia, governments, nonprofits, and K-12 schools, can bolster this effort. However, any worthwhile attempts at this must arguably first be steeped in an understanding of the STEM Education movement as well as the deep lineage of learning theories which underscore what has now come to be understood as evidence-based best practices in bolstering STEM teaching and learning. As such, the ensuing chapter recounts a brief history of the STEM Education movement, discussing the impact of pivotal documents, such as </span><i style="font-family: Times; font-size: 16px;">A Nation at Risk</i><span style="font-family: "times"; font-size: 16px;">, which fanned the flames of education reform. It then presents the various perspectives as to what “STEM Education” means, focusing on the separated perspective versus the inte- grated perspective. This is followed by a synopsis of major learning theories and paradigms, such as behaviorism, constructivism, social constructivism, and constructionism, which have informed and continue to underscore education research. Finally, the chapter concludes with a thick description of authentic, situated inquiry- based pedagogies like Problem- and Project-Based Learning, as well as their potential to foster connections and partnerships between industry clusters and K-12 schools.</span><span style="font-family: "times"; font-size: 16px;"> </span><br />

<b>Abstract:</b> P<span style="font-family: "georgia"; font-size: 11pt;">ositioned in the context of experiential learning, this paper reports findings of a virtual reality field trip (VRFT) in conjunction with an in- person field trip involving preservice teachers in an elementary science methods course to a local natural history museum. Findings included that virtual reality (VR) is best used after a field trip to encourage student recall of the experience, but only when done for a limited time to avoid VR fatigue. The types of experiences that preservice teachers thought VR would be good for in their science classrooms included the ability to visit either inaccessible or unsafe locations, to explore scales of size that are either too big or too small, and to witness different eras or events at varying temporal scales. Furthermore, this study uncovered potential equity issues related to VRFTs being seen as a viable alternative if students could not afford to go on field trips. Further research needs to be conducted to better understand the impact of VRFTs on student learning outcomes and take advantage of recent improvements in VR technology</span>

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">W</span>ork on alternative conceptions of tree growth has extensively documented how students of nearly all developmental and educational levels share the “persistent intuitive conception ... that plants get their food from their environment, specifically from the soil; and that roots are the organs of feeding” (Driver et al. 2005, p. 30; Parker and Carr 1989). Soil acts as an anchor for the plant’s roots and provides the plant with water and small amounts of nutrients, but the soil itself is not the source of the carbon that adds mass to the organism. The mass of a tree, for example, is primarily carbon, which comes from carbon dioxide used during photosynthesis.</span></div>

First, there is the enacted curriculum of the UTeach Project Based Instruction course taught by Dr. Anthony Petrosino and Max Shepard as the course teaching assistant. This is essentially a daily diary of what we actually did in class each day. The second part of this post is the course syllabus. Obviously, there is some discrepancy between the formal and enacted curriculum for any course. But we believe this information can be helpful to other UTeach Institute instructors attempting to enact PBI in their classrooms. -Dr. Petrosino<br />

Last week, 60 representatives from 22 universities convened — along with key stakeholders from the broader computer science education and engineering education communities — at the University of Colorado Boulder. The challenge was to attract more STEM teachers from engineering majors and to significantly strengthen the preparation of computer science teachers. The meeting was planned by representatives from UTeach programs at Boise State University, CU Boulder, and Drexel, with support from the<a class="markup--anchor markup--p-anchor" data-href="https://institute.uteach.utexas.edu/who-we-are" href="https://institute.uteach.utexas.edu/who-we-are" rel="noopener nofollow" style="background-image: linear-gradient(rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.682353) 50%, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) 50%); background-position: 0px 1.07em; background-repeat: repeat no-repeat; background-size: 2px 0.1em; color: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank"> UTeach Institute</a> at The University of Texas at Austin.

Federal agencies and STEM and CS education organizations (UTeach included) have been broadening participation in CS by integrating industry expertise into classrooms, training in-service teachers, integrating CS into existing STEM courses, and implementing introductory CS courses like<a class="markup--anchor markup--p-anchor" data-href="https://cs.uteach.utexas.edu/" href="https://cs.uteach.utexas.edu/" rel="nofollow noopener" style="background-image: linear-gradient(rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.682353) 50%, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) 50%); background-position: 0px 1.07em; background-repeat: repeat no-repeat; background-size: 2px 0.1em; color: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank"> AP CS Principles</a> and Exploring Computer Science.</div>

In-service teacher professional development has been key to the explosive growth of K–12 CS education offerings, but the role of universities in the preparation of computer science teachers is absolutely critical if we are going to address the current shortage of CS teachers at scale and with any kind of lasting impact. Yet there are precious few exemplars on which to model new programs. Partly this has been a chicken and egg problem. For example, the UTeach program at UT Austin has had an undergraduate pathway to CS certification for more than ten years. But with so little demand for CS teachers at secondary schools throughout the state, very few students were recruited and prepared. Now that the demand for CS teachers is increasing, UTeach Austin and other UTeach partner universities are ramping up and expanding their efforts.</div>

There was widespread consensus among our group at CU Boulder last week that a variety of pathways were needed in order to recruit and prepare excellent CS teachers. All the universities in attendance described either new pathways that had been implemented within the last two years, or pathways currently under development. These included:</div>

I recently received an NSF award for work with cloud computing with colleagues Walter Stroup (UMass- Dartmouth), Uri Wilensky (Northwestern) and Cory Brady (Vanderbilt). The project will help pre-service teachers develop more fully
participatory and socially-supported approaches to classroom learning,
using authentic STEM practices in group-centered learning environments.
The work is of particular importance to those who prepare pre-service
teachers for the classroom, because most programs don’t use this type of
approach in teacher preparation. As part of the project I was invited recently to NYC for an NSF workshop on computer science and Colleges of Education. Here is a little write up on that meeting. -Dr. Petrosino <br />

Happy UTeach Day in Austin, Texas!<br /><br />The City of Austin Council Meeting on May 18th, 2017 will declare May 18th UTeach Day. Yep, that's our day! <br />The proclamation portion of the evening starts at 5:30pm. <a href="https://uteach.utexas.edu/staff-directory/austin/michael-marder" target="_blank">Dr. Michael Marder </a>and <a href="https://education.utexas.edu/faculty/lawrence_abraham" target="_blank">Dr. Larry Abraham</a> will receive the proclamation and I am hoping we can pack the chamber with all those who have supported us along the way!<br /><br />The City Council meeting is in the Council Chamber at City Hall, which is at 301 West 2nd Street, between Lavaca and Guadalupe. <br /><br />You may park in the public area of our underground parking garage; the entrance is on the west (Guadalupe) side of the building; you may park on the P1 or P2 level. When you enter the building, security staff will be at a table in front of the Council Chamber, and will validate your parking ticket, so parking won’t cost you anything.<br />
<br />The Proclamations section of the Council meeting will be announced by the Mayor, beginning no earlier than 5:30 p.m. on Thursday, May 18th.<br />Dr. Anthony Petrosinohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10115534661613149019noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8669960026211829508.post-61782955788152030622017-04-05T08:59:00.003-07:002017-05-11T14:52:09.413-07:00PBI UTeach Class Summaries- Spring 2017 <style>

</span></span></span>Takeaway: This was an expert teacher who had a
status in his school. It was a nice snapshot of the time (late 1990s) which
demonstrate the elements of PBI in a practical setting. It was a real school,
with real students (from multiple grade levels), that were working on projects
that were authentic and relevant to students. The setting resembled lab groups
(not lab “class”) that featured formal and informal relationships, which
facilitated the interpersonal characteristics (relationship building, etc.) that
are important to an optimal learning environment. </div>

<div style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.75rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem;">
U.S. News & World Report has just released its graduate school rankings. The College of Education is ranked 10<span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 14px; line-height: 0; position: relative; top: -0.5em; vertical-align: baseline;">th</span> overall and has maintained its third-place ranking among public universities.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.75rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem;">
“I’m very proud that the college has maintained its extraordinarily strong national showing in the face of both limited federal funding and an increasingly competitive market for top faculty and top graduate students,” says Dean Manuel Justiz. “I thank our faculty and College of Education family for providing our students with an excellent education and leading our field with cutting-edge scholarship and research. Their contributions keep us competitive among our peers.”</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.75rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem;">
In addition to the college’s number three spot, the college is ranked second in research expenditures among publics. Specific programs and specialty areas also placed strong within the top 10, with two rising in rankings.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.75rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem;">

<div style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1.75rem; margin-bottom: 1.25rem;">
Rankings are but one indicator of excellence. The College of Education continues to develop strategies to secure funding for research, recruiting and retaining faculty, and for programs such as the <a href="http://www.edb.utexas.edu/education/features/deans-scholars-program/" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #bf5700; text-decoration: none;">Dean’s Scholars Fellowship Program</a>, which helps recruit the best and brightest graduate students.</div>

A <b>terrarium</b> is a type of miniature <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ecosystem" style="background-image: none; color: #0b0080; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;" title="Ecosystem">ecosystem</a> of plants. Terrariums are usually sealable glass containers that can be opened for maintenance and to access the plants inside. However, this is not essential; terrariums can also be made using other <a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transparent" style="background-image: none; color: #0b0080; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;" title="Transparent">transparent</a>materials, and some are open to the atmosphere rather than being sealed. Terrariums are often kept as decorative or ornamental items in the same way as <a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquariums" style="background-image: none; color: #0b0080; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;" title="Aquariums">aquariums</a>.</div>
<div style="color: #252525; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 0.5em; margin-top: 0.5em;">
Closed terrariums create a unique environment for plant growth, as the transparent walls allow for both heat and light to enter the terrarium. The sealed container combined with the heat entering the terrarium allows for the creation of a small scale <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_cycle" style="background-image: none; color: #0b0080; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;" title="Water cycle">water cycle</a>. This happens because moisture from both the soil and plants evaporates in the elevated temperatures inside the terrarium. This water vapour then condenses on the walls of the container, and eventually falls back to the plants and soil below. This contributes to creating an ideal environment for growing plants due to the constant supply of water, thereby preventing the plants from becoming over dry. In addition to this, the light that passes through the transparent material of the terrarium allows for the plants within to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photosynthesis" style="background-image: none; color: #0b0080; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;" title="Photosynthesis">photosynthesis</a>, an important aspect of plant growth.</div>

A <b>terrarium</b> is a type of miniature <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ecosystem" style="background-image: none; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none;" title="Ecosystem">ecosystem</a> of plants. Terrariums are usually sealable glass containers that can be opened for maintenance and to access the plants inside. However, this is not essential; terrariums can also be made using other <a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transparent" style="background-image: none; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none;" title="Transparent">transparent</a>materials, and some are open to the atmosphere rather than being sealed. Terrariums are often kept as decorative or ornamental items in the same way as <a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquariums" style="background-image: none; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none;" title="Aquariums">aquariums</a>.</div>
<div style="color: #252525; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 0.5em; margin-top: 0.5em;">
Closed terrariums create a unique environment for plant growth, as the transparent walls allow for both heat and light to enter the terrarium. The sealed container combined with the heat entering the terrarium allows for the creation of a small scale <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_cycle" style="background-image: none; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none;" title="Water cycle">water cycle</a>. This happens because moisture from both the soil and plants evaporates in the elevated temperatures inside the terrarium. This water vapour then condenses on the walls of the container, and eventually falls back to the plants and soil below. This contributes to creating an ideal environment for growing plants due to the constant supply of water, thereby preventing the plants from becoming over dry. In addition to this, the light that passes through the transparent material of the terrarium allows for the plants within to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photosynthesis" style="background-image: none; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none;" title="Photosynthesis">photosynthesis</a>, an important aspect of plant growth.</div>

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, verdana, tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px;"><a href="http://www.eschoolnews.com/2014/12/18/pearson-social-studies-329/">Developing an understanding of social studies</a>–where our society has been and where it is going–is crucial to success in today’s fast-paced, interconnected world.</span><br />
<div style="border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: arial, verdana, tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Last month, Pearson unveiled new secondary social studies programs designed to engage every student in the love of history, geography, government, economics, and culture to provide a foundation for success in civic life as well as college and career.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: arial, verdana, tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Created through a collaborative process involving educators, experts and students from around the country, Pearson’s next-generation social studies programs align to the College, Career and Civic Life (C3) Framework for Social Studies State Standards. The framework, developed and launched last year by the National Council for the Social Studies, shifts the emphasis from delivering content to preparing students for life beyond the classroom.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: arial, verdana, tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Kathy Swan, project director and lead writer of the C3 Framework, collaborated with Pearson on the development of the new programs. Swan, an associate professor of curriculum and instruction at the University of Kentucky, said: “While much of the content in social studies hasn’t changed, if we are going to engage today’s students in learning this important subject, we must transform our instructional approach. Today’s technology provides us with a new way of immersing students in learning about history, geography and culture by personalizing content and actively involving them in thinking in different ways.”</div>
<div style="border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: arial, verdana, tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
The new programs combine best practices, curriculum standards, and technology. Students connect to digital content and actively learn, investigate, and acquire key content knowledge through print and digital resources. Then they extend their understanding by applying what they just learned in quick recap exercises. Through formative and summative assessments, they demonstrate understanding of what they are learning.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: arial, verdana, tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
“If we are going to educate 21st century learners, it is crucial that we take a 21st century approach, integrating all of the powerful tools and resources that we have available into an engaging and interactive learning environment,” said Bethlam Forsa, Pearson’s managing director for learning services. “Through our collaboration with educators, experts, and other leading education organizations, we reimagined social studies to develop programs that will provide students with a foundation for success in college, career and civic life.”</div>
<div style="border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: arial, verdana, tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Pearson collaborated with NBC Learn, the educational arm of NBCUniversal News Group, to produce the program’s myStory videos, developed to help students make personal connections to people and places all over the world. In addition, for the 2015-2016 school year, schools using Pearson’s new grades 8-12 social studies curriculum will have access to NBC Learn’s library of more than 17,000 premium education videos.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: arial, verdana, tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
“NBC Learn is uniquely able to bring historic and current events to life through the combination of original productions and a deep digital video archive of news stories by our world-class journalists,” said Soraya Gage, vice president and general manager, NBC Learn.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: arial, verdana, tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
In addition, Pearson worked with the nonprofit, non-partisan Constitutional Rights Foundation (CRF), to develop the Civic Discussion Topic Inquiries for all of the new programs. Pearson also integrated CRF’s project-based learning model, Civic Action Project, into the company’s longest continually published title, “Magruder’s American Government,” which was first available in 1917.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: arial, verdana, tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
“Exploring civics through project-based learning provides students with a real-world view on how government works and the ways that citizens can help solve or influence a problem, issue or policy,” said Marshall Croddy, president, CRF. “Pearson’s new social studies curriculum provides us with a powerful platform for involving students in learning civics through this model.”</div>
<div style="border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: arial, verdana, tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Delivered via Pearson’s REALIZE platform, the next-generation programs include student and teacher print editions,eTexts, NBC Learn myStory videos, videos to support flipped learning, and built-in progress monitoring and assessments. Embedded professional development provides teachers with access to both complete professional learning assignments and short segments to support them as they teach the curriculum.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: arial, verdana, tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Available now for pilots and for implementation in fall 2015, the new social studies programs are “American History” for middle grades; and “World History,”“United States History,”“Magruder’s American Government” and “Economics” for high school</div>
