Preparing Middle Grades Teachers To Use Drawn Models For Developing Arithmetic With Rational Numbers, Andrew Izsak, Erik Jacobson
Preparing Middle Grades Teachers To Use Drawn Models For Developing Arithmetic With Rational Numbers, Andrew Izsak, Erik Jacobson
Interdisciplinary STEM Teaching & Learning Conference (2012-2019)
We will report on-going efforts to design a research-based content and methods course for future middle grades teachers focused on numbers and operations. A main theme of the course is to solve problems using drawn models and to develop general numeric methods. Attendees will work on activities used in the course that elicit difficulties future teachers experience with this content.
The Need To Teach Civility In Ece Classrooms, Michael Borders, Donna Borders
The Need To Teach Civility In Ece Classrooms, Michael Borders, Donna Borders
Interdisciplinary STEM Teaching & Learning Conference (2012-2019)
Methods for the teaching of civility to teacher education candidates—the why, what and how—are premised on the current societal need to emphasize altruistic behaviors. Survey results from 120 teacher candidates and 120 clinical supervisors within an eight- county Georgia area will be exhibited along with research literature reviews, lesson plans, and pre- and post-test data analyses.

Redesigning And Undergraduate Engineering Course, Elise Barrella
Interdisciplinary STEM Teaching & Learning Conference (2012-2019)
The presentation will consist of two parts: (1) description of the introductory engineering course and the experience of using a backwards design approach to create a more learner-centered and active course and (2) group discussion of simple, successful techniques for creating a more learner-centered course. The course was redesigned as part of a preparatory teaching program for graduate students.

A Medley Of Successful Active-Learning Methods, Sarah Formica
Interdisciplinary STEM Teaching & Learning Conference (2012-2019)
This workshop will present a medley of active-learning methods that have been implemented successfully in physics courses. The participants will engage in methods that include Just-in-Time Teaching, clicker questions, whiteboard activities, and virtual experiments. The workshop goal is to show how these active-learning methods can be applied in a STEM classroom to increase students’ conceptual understanding and problem solving skills.
