STEM in Action: Start With Prepared Leaders, Teachers and Engaged Students
Join experts and educators for a discussion on building STEM education systems that support implementation models to prepare today’s leaders, teachers and students for success. Registration is complimentary, and a networking breakfast and lunch are included. Date/Time: Location: PROGRAMWelcome Heather Wathington, Ph.D. Roadmaps to STEM Success Overview of two newly published roadmaps for successful STEM implementation:
Ron DeChristoforo Keynote address: STEM in the Real World: What Students and Teachers Need Cultivating 21st-century learning environments that foster purposeful engagement and critical thinking demands a reexamination of instructional materials, practices, leadership and collaboration. STEM education provides a perfect platform to enrich teaching and learning while closing the achievement gap for females and underserved students. Exploring what works in successful STEM models is a productive starting point. Nancy Songer, Ph.D. Perspective: Teacher Preparation Drives Success in STEM Education Advancements in STEM teaching and learning have intensified and accelerated across the country, for all the right reasons. Current developments in STEM teacher preparation programs are driving the demanding work to foster equitable learning opportunities for all students — to develop skills, competencies and an appreciation for STEM and STEM-related fields. To accomplish this, learn how the shifting role of leaders and educators has evolved. This session provides specific examples of how some of this work is taking place in Memphis, Tennessee. Alfred Hall, Ph.D. A Unique Opportunity: Woodrow Wilson STEM Teaching Fellowship Program Recruiting and preparing teachers as STEM leaders at West Chester University is undergoing a change from a university-based approach to a partnership approach. The Woodrow Wilson STEM Teaching Fellowship Program is providing an opportunity to reimagine teaching training as a residency model built on partnerships with school districts and providing training beyond candidacy. Dan Ilaria, Ph.D. Break Update on STEM Initiatives in The School District of Philadelphia Malika Savoy-Brooks, Ed.D. Panel and audience discussion: Preparing the Next Generation of STEM Leaders, Teachers and Students Our world benefits from education models that prepare teachers to produce STEM-literate students, demanding access to integrative knowledge. Participants and panelists discuss the challenges and opportunities in building STEM education systems to support the teaching and learning needed to prepare the next generation of STEM teachers and students.

Building a Bridge to STEAM: Collaboration for Student Success
Join experts and educators for a discussion on building STEAM education systems that support implementation models to prepare today’s leaders, teachers and students for success. There is no cost to attend, and a networking breakfast and luncheon are included. Date/Time: Location: 8 a.m. | Registration and continental breakfast PROGRAM8:30 a.m. | Welcome Brian Dunnicliffe, Educational Technology Consultant, Texas Instruments Roadmaps to STEM Success Overview of two newly published roadmaps for successful STEM implementation:
Ron DeChristoforo, State Policy Director, Texas Instruments Keynote: Can STEM Save the World? Hopes and Hurdles STEM education is changing rapidly, along with the use of STEM in the world at large. In a short time, STEM education has come a long way, and yet we still have far to travel. What are some of the ways we might capitalize on the promise of STEM and overcome the challenges of changing entrenched practices? Arthur Beauchamp, National Science Education Consultant, author and educator Everyone Can Code! Introducing students to the basics of coding helps build critical-thinking and problem-solving skills. Programming with TI-Innovator™ Technology introduces physical computing and helps spark interest in engineering, robotics and more. Wendy Peel, Technology Adoption Consultant, Texas Instruments Brian Dunnicliffe, Educational Technology Consultant, Texas Instruments Becoming a Neuroscientist: The Power of Access, Mentorship and Advocacy Gentry Patrick, Ph.D., will discuss building a student success program model that leverages the student perspective and experience to inform strategic partnerships for broader impacts and cultural transformation. Gentry Patrick, Ph.D., Professor of Neurobiology, Creator and Executive Faculty Director — PATHS Program, University of California San Diego OpenSciEd, Freely Available Science Instruction Materials that Support Equitable Science Instructions for All Students Equitable instructional practices are central to the design of the OpenSciEd classroom and professional learning materials. Jointly created by educators and curriculum experts, these materials are classroom-tested to support the Next Generation Science Standards. By design, these materials relate to the interests, identities and experiences of students. Jim Ryan, Executive Director, OpenSciEd Panel and audience discussion: Engaging Students Where the Disciplines Converge Our world benefits from education models that prepare teachers to produce STEM-literate students, demanding access to integrative knowledge. Participants and panelists discuss the challenges and opportunities in building STEM education systems to support equitable teaching and learning needed to prepare the next generation of diverse STEM teachers and students.
