1 Integrating Science, Technology, Engineering, Math and Social Studies A project-based approach to authentic instruction Jon Baek Middle School Science Bill Van Loo Technology Specialist Honey Creek Community School - Ann Arbor, MI

2 Sustainability is a phrase we often associate with either environmental concerns or economic viability in today's world.

3 Because of its important today and in the future, sustainability can be a great focal point for integrating STEM and Social Studies.

4 Our Intent: We will help you learn how to use sustainability as an integration point for your curriculum.

5 A couple of questions

6 Who are we?

7 Honey Creek Community School, Ann Arbor MI 240 Students, Grades K-8

8 We teach elementary and middle school technology, engineering and science.

9 During this time, we have worked on a number of different sets of sustainability curriculum, produced by local, regional, and national organizations.

10 Who are you (elementary, ms, etc)?

11 What is sustainability?

12 What do you want to still exist after you are gone? Environment The world Many species of plants & animals Economics Strong Economy Taxpayers Social Equity Sports Family unity A sense of wonder Social Equity US Constitution People to continue learning & growing Peace makers Books Free education Morals, values, religion Music

15 Economics Environment

16 Economics Environment Social Equity

17 One definition of sustainability: Meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs (Bruntland Report, 1987).

18 How is sustainability related to STEM & Social Studies?

25 International Technology & Engineering Standards

26 International Technology & Engineering Standards Develop an understanding of the effects of technology on the environment.

27 International Technology & Engineering Standards Develop an understanding of the effects of technology on the environment. Develop an understanding of the cultural, social, economic, and political effects of technology.

28 International Technology & Engineering Standards Develop an understanding of the effects of technology on the environment. Develop an understanding of the cultural, social, economic, and political effects of technology. Develop an understanding of and be able to select and use manufacturing technologies.

29 International Technology & Engineering Standards Develop an understanding of the effects of technology on the environment. Develop an understanding of the cultural, social, economic, and political effects of technology. Develop an understanding of and be able to select and use manufacturing technologies. Students will develop an understanding of the attributes of engineering design.

30 Any decision you make in the design process has costs in all 3 areas of sustainability (economics, environment, and social equity).

31 How can sustainability be integrated into your curriculum?

32 Examples

53 Economics Environment Social Equity

54 How to get started integrating sustainability into your own curriculum.

55 Look for connection points in your subject area:

56 Look for connection points in your subject area: Economics

57 Look for connection points in your subject area: Economics Environment

58 Look for connection points in your subject area: Economics Environment Social Equity

59 Look for connection points in your subject area: Economics Environment Social Equity Scientific Inquiry

60 Look for connection points in your subject area: Economics Environment Social Equity Scientific Inquiry World Issues

61 Look for connection points in your subject area: Economics Environment Social Equity Scientific Inquiry World Issues Technology

62 Look for connection points in your subject area: Economics Environment Social Equity Scientific Inquiry World Issues Technology Speed of Innovation

63 Our Conclusion: Integrating sustainability concepts is possible, and should be done in an integrated STEM + Social Studies approach.
