“STEM education,” as used in this
report, includes the subjects of
mathematics, biology, chemistry,
and physics, which have
traditionally formed the core
requirements of many state
curricula at the K-12 level. In
addition, the report includes other
critical subjects, such as computer
science, engineering,
environmental science and
geology, with whose fundamental
concepts K-12 students should be
familiar.

National Endowment for
Science Technology and
the Arts
K-12 Schools
Bring computer science into the
National Curriculum as an
essential discipline.
Use video games and visual
effects at school to draw greater
numbers of young people into
STEM and computer science.
Encourage art-tech crossover
and work-based learning through
school clubs.

How does
leading K-12
practice
exemplify
transformational
innovation?

“Although the term ‘STEM education’
is used in national education policy, it
is not implemented in a way that
reﬂects the interdependence of the four
STEM subjects.”
-NAE/NRC Committee on K-12
Engineering Education (2009)

“By ‘science,’ Project 2061 means basic and
applied natural and social science, basic and
applied mathematics, and engineering and
technology, and their interconnections—which
is to say the scientiﬁc enterprise as a whole.
The basic point is that the ideas and practice
of science, mathematics, and technology are so
closely intertwined that we do not see how
education in any one of them can be
undertaken well in isolation from the others.”
-Benchmarks for Science Literacy (1993)

“There are kids on Maui
who have never been to
the top of the mountain or
to Hana much less have
they traveled off of the
island.”

“I do not think Maui is any
different than the
mainland…post
industrialization has
placed greater demands
on math and education.”

What does college
and career readiness
mean?

Both students bound for college and for careers
need core academic skills, but students who are
planning to start their careers also need
employability and technical skills.
"All three of them must be in place and must be
achieved by an individual in order to be considered
career ready,” said Jan Bray, the association's
executive director.
"Whether you’re going to be a doctor, a lawyer, a
welder, a nurse, a cosmetologist, you name it,
you’re going to need a core of academics that you
can apply,” Bray said.
Education Experts Define Career Readiness
By Tanya Roscorla
ON APRIL 14, 2010 COLLEGE AND CAREER
http://www.convergemag.com/workforce/Education-Experts-Define-Career-Readiness.html

...to truly be career-ready, students also need to be able to apply
academics in context, and some academic skills need more attention and
development. For example, employers often cite deficiencies in English and
written communications, such as memos, letters and complex technical
reports. This supports the idea that most of the written material students will
encounter in their careers is informational in nature, such as technical
manuals and research articles, and they must be equipped academically to
analyze and use these materials. Too often, these skills are not
emphasized in traditional academic classrooms. Workplace deficiencies in
math are also commonly noted, with more attention needed on areas such
as data analysis and statistics, reasoning, and solving mathematical
problems.
What is career ready? Linking academic knowledge, technical
skill and employability skills.

and distributed manufacturing experiments.
The goal is to encourage students across
clusters of schools to collaborate via social
networking media to jointly design and build
systems of moderate complexity, such as
mobile robots, go carts, etc., in response to
prize challenges.

TEAMS is about engaging the whole of all disciplines to
ask:
• What is the human condition and what can we do
about it?
• What is the role of “design, creativity and critical
thinking” in executing new designs for learning?
• How can we work together to put knowledge into
action -- to create discourse across the disciplines --
and to link & integrate curricula with the world?
• How can we shift learning so that students take more
responsibility for learning and teachers can take back
the sandbox of learning?
TEAMS is about engaging the whole while preserving and leveraging
what is important and unique in the parts. The goal is holistic thinking,
learning, and practice. The desired result is a stronger educational
community of practice and better educational, social, and economic
outcomes for students and civil society.

Haiku is a Japanese poem
composed of three unrhymed lines
of five, seven, and five syllables.
Haiku usually emphasizes a season,
intense emotion and vivid image
designed to lead to an enlightened
insight.

The word Cinquain is derived from the French word for five. An American poet

format in the last years of her life. She died early, at the age of thirty-six. The
Cinquain is a short, 5-line poetry form, with a distinct pattern (2, 4, 6, 8, 2)
