1 Using Engineering Practices to Teach Science Jo Oshiro Oregon Department of Education STEM Education Specialist jo.oshiro@state.or.us Jamie Rumage Oregon Department of Education Science Education Specialist jamie.rumage@state.or.usamie.rumage@state.or.us OACTE Conference – April 2015

2 REVIEW GOALS & OBJECTIVES ● Basic Understanding of Oregon Science Standards (NGSS) ● Make connections between the science and CTE ● Resources and Regional STEM Hub support systems

3 What Are the NGSS? ● Nationally-developed science standards ● Internationally benchmarked ● Written by scientists, engineers, and educators (CTE educators made contributions too!) ● Oregon contribution: writing and review ● Adopted by Oregon in March 2014

4 VISION & MISSION

5 KEY PEDAGOGICAL PRACTICES (SHIFTS) Focus: The standards are focused on deeper understanding and application of science content reflecting real-world phenomena. Coherence: The standards build coherently across K–12. Rigor: Three-Dimensional Learning is integrated across the K–12. Explicit Ties to CCSS

7 Three- Dimensions of the Framework for K-12 Science ●Science and Engineering Practices (8) ●Crosscutting Concepts (7) ●Disciplinary Core Ideas (4)

8 Three-Dimensional Learning

9 Engineering Design

10 ENGINEERING DESIGN PRACTICES LET’S PLAY — Rocket Building

13 1.What problems did you anticipate and how to resolve them? 1.What are the student benefits of engaging in Engineering Design practices? 1.What are the biggest roadblock to using Engineering Design? CO 2 Rocket Group Discussion

14 MS-ETS1-1. Define the criteria and constraints of a design problem with sufficient precision to ensure a successful solution, taking into account relevant scientific principles and potential impacts on people and the natural environment that may limit possible solutions.

18 CREATING ENGAGING LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES

19 Resources: Next Generation Science Standards Oregon Science Updates The App is great!

21 Stronger Connected than Separate: Regional STEM Hubs: Bridge pockets of excellence, capture and share best practices & resources, galvanize communities to build on local assets -- “core” classes, CTE, OST, community, workforce... STEM/STEAM/CTE Activities: Close the opportunity gap. Expand transformed STEAM and CTE learning programs within and beyond the school day, focus on underserved and underrepresented students.
