Each chapter incorporates elements of connected learning—a type of learning that draws on students’ interests that teachers can capitalize on when using STEAM to address real-world problems.Readers will find easy-to-understand examples of what STEAM education looks like in a variety of classrooms, and will hear from teachers, instructional coaches, principals, and administrators about what it takes to ensure that STEAM is a schoolwide success. Book Features: Straightforward guidance for creating STEAM instructional units for the K–8 classroom. A concise instructional model that addresses misconceptions about STEAM education. Extended vignettes demonstrating teaching practices, student learning, and school-community partnerships.
