Florida State University Schools: Developmental Research Lab School Dr. Stacy Chambers Executive Director Thank yous-and welcomes Framework for Presentation: Guiding questions How do we develop and test educational models? How do we share best practices with educators (state and national level)? How do we bridge the gap between research and classroom practice? How do we support achievement for all of Florida’s students? Refer to Board of Governors: Introduce team Instruction that Moves Leaders Who Inspire Research that Makes A Difference

Our Research Mission Developing and Testing Educational Models “Research, demonstration, and evaluation conducted at a developmental research school may consist of pilot projects to be generated by the affiliated college, the Education Standards Commission, or the Legislature” Developing and Testing Educational Models Sharing best practices with educators throughout Florida, the United States and Internationally Bridging the gap between research and classroom practice Supporting achievement for all of Florida’s students College and Career Ready: Reading: FCCR Research Key National Issues Leadership Training: Teacher Leaders as researchers Educators that both share and lead

Our Research Mission Research and Development at FSUS builds on the research and service components of our mission and the belief that "collaborative research and reasoned inquiry enables us to advance knowledge and contribute to best practices in education." Curriculum development that prepares students for College and Career Research of learners and learning systems Teacher professional development with FSU and other stakeholders Addressing challenges to education in the State of Florida and the nation College and Career Ready: Reading: FCCR Research Key National Issues Leadership Training: Teacher Leaders as researchers Educators that both share and lead

Space Flight Simulator Instructional System Developed through a Curriculum Challenge grant research project funded by the Florida Department of Education Administrated by the Science Department at Florida State University Project goal: System that is easily replicated in any classroom with a minimum amount of resources. Available free to instructors wishing to use this in their classroom though a dedicated website at www.astronautchallenge.com

Florida State University Schools: Developmental Research Lab School Current Educational Programming Needs Instruction that Moves Leaders Who Inspire Research that Makes A Difference

FSUS Music Program All Music Courses practice, store and instruments uniforms in the same classrooms that they teach in. Other than the current Cafeteria, which houses our Extended Day Program year round, there is no where to perform. They frequently practice outside. There is no space for technology-based music or production courses.

Science: Active Learning in Science Courses is limited to sharing space or restricting enrollment in some of the most needed STEAM courses. For example, our Technology Sandbox that fosters learning in Physics and Computer Programming is located in the storage room of Library Medical Sciences courses are taught in small learning spaces located in Health Clinic with little available technology

Current TV Production Studio: Housed in the back storage room of a traditional classroom

Art Classroom: Award winning Art Program cannot expand course offerings due to lack of classroom space. Art supplies and art work are currently housed in classrooms. Art supplies and art work storage needs prevent use of “storefront art gallery” space intended for use as an art gallery.

Impact on Technology Education FSUS is currently unable to expand Technology courses, offer more specialized Technology classes or expand Industry certifications due to lack of appropriately designed and equipped classroom space. In addition, to meet the “STEAM” –based mission, multi-purpose “flexible” class space is needed. Flexible classrooms allow for multiple subjects to be taught in the same space. For example, technology, foreign language labs, engineering and robotics could all be taught in flexible learning space.

Florida State University Schools Arts & Sciences Facility (STEAM) (FSUS) The proposed layout and specifications outlined in this proposal reflect the design of a building that will support the purpose, mission and vision of Florida State University’s premier Developmental Research School. This proposed design also supports the intent, as articulated in the original Florida Statutes, that “each developmental research school shall emphasize mathematics, science, computer science, and foreign languages.” FSUS has a long history of educational leadership and student success. Our intent is to continue this tradition and expand our impact on research, instructional excellence and innovation. Florida State University Schools Arts & Sciences Facility (STEAM) Design Proposal

Florida State University Schools Arts & Sciences Facility (STEAM) Design Proposal Florida State University Schools (FSUS) FSUS seeks to offer flexible learning spaces that are appropriately equipped to teach all STEAM-related courses and provide auditorium space to accommodate performances, celebrations, concerts, community meetings, innovative professional development and conferences.
