Automated Scoring for Argumentation In addition to promoting students’ understanding of Earth’s complex systems, this project supports students’ scientific argumentation practices through real-time automated scoring, diagnostics, and feedback.

Our Projects

BigDataOur understanding of what K-12 students learn from engineering design is limited. BigData responds to this problem by developing cutting-edge process analytics for K-12 engineering design research. Building ModelsMichigan State University and the Concord Consortium are collaborating to examine how to support secondary school students in constructing and revising models based on disciplinary core ideas and crosscutting concepts to explain scientific phenomena and solve problems. CLEARCLEAR is a collaboration with UC Berkeley and the University of Toronto. CLEAR is building embedded assessments and new systems dynamics diagramming technology to explore cumulative learning about energy concepts in middle school. 2013 Recordings.

Harvard STEM Teaching Videos

How about a fun activity that gives high-school students a hands-on feel for fundamental calculus concepts and also meets state content standards? The Harvard-Smithsonian Center for for Astrophysics has compiled a digital video library full of curriculum-enhancing lessons, assessment tools, and case studies - all developed and used by teachers in their classrooms. These “Videos to Enhance Understanding and Teaching of K-12 Learning Goals,” as the project is called, feature: • Clinical Interviews of Student Ideas • Demonstrations of Phenomena • Case Studies of Instruction or Research • Interviews with Experts • Correlations to state and national curriculum standards Clips can be searched for in a variety of ways. The collection of 1,017 movies includes a range of topics. Among the “What’s the Point?”

STEM School Research. Our research team at the University of Chicago and Ohio State University has been studying the implementation, spread and sustainability of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) schools.

STEM School Research

As part of our work studying the Ohio STEM Learning Network and their platform schools, we have developed a way to specifically and clearly describe STEM schools - a taxonomy, or way to codify them so that when people say "STEM School," we can unpack that a bit to better understand what they are really talking about. We have created data visualizations on STEM schools. Looking at data differently can help illustrate important information about STEM schools that we otherwise might not see. We are experimenting with different ways to communicate what a STEM school is.

To learn more about this project visit our Understanding STEM Schools Researchers Without Borders Project and the project description . Connect the Dots. But first, they must embrace science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) to build the skills that will serve as their tool set for the future.

Connect the Dots

For that to happen, we must work together to ignite their curiosity and get them excited about STEM in their everyday lives. So we ask you to join us in connecting the dots between learning and life. Together, we can ignite the spark in students around the clock and around the world. While after-school learning and summer programs provide rich opportunities to keep students inspired beyond the classroom, we know that unequal access to these programs can contribute to disparities in student achievement. STEM Camp combines hands-on labs, engineering challenges, digital investigations, and more - all designed to immerse kids in the grand challenges of science set forth by the National Academy of Engineering.
