What do we expect them to teach?

What do we expect them to teach?

What we teach What we want them to teach What they take Currently…

How and what we teach How do we transition to… How and what we want them to teach

New resources from InTeGrate Curricular materials that … Address interdisciplinary grand challenges society is facing Use science and engineering practices, highlighting geoscientific thinking Make use of real-world data and issues Develop students’ systems thinking Follow best practices in teaching and learning Are adaptable and adoptable by instructors in a variety of settings

1-4 week module for secondary science methods course, typically taken by secondary science ed majors in all disciplines, dominated by biologists (and frequently taught by biologists) 2-3 week module for Earth science content course geared towards elementary education majors, modeling inquiry-based learning strategies COMING SOON! Module for elementary science methods course

How do we assess if these are working? Impact on faculty as agents of change; Impact on students’… – …geoscience literacy; – …interest in majoring in geosciences and/or in a career that uses geoscience; – …ability and motivation to contribute to solving grand challenges of resources and environmental sustainability. Reflections and interviews Geoscience Literacy Exam (GLE): pre- and post- InTeGrate Attitudinal Instrument (IAI): pre- and post- Interdisciplinary thinking essay question: post only

GLE results thus far n = 485 Difference in means = 0.61 (p<0.001)

IAI results thus far Responses to the open-ended prompt: As you think about your future, can you envision using what you have learned in this course to help society overcome problems of environmental degradation, natural resources limitations, or other environmental issues? Yes because we learned about being able to use engineering to solve a problem. I could be given any problem and I could come up with a solution to the problem through trial and error. I would plan on using some of the teaching techniques and lessons used in this course to help educate more people about the data and conclusions which can be reached from that data to live and think more responsibly about the earth and it's resources.
