STEM Essentials (50 Clock Hours)

If you have taken this course for graduate credit through ArmchairEd, you cannot take the same course for clock hours through ArmchairEdClockHours.

This course meets Washington State Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math Clock Hour Requirements

STEM Lesson Essentials provides all the tools and strategies you’ll need to design integrated, interdisciplinary STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) lessons and units that are relevant and exciting to students. The course provides clear definitions of both STEM and STEM literacy, including organizing and delivering instruction by weaving the four disciplines together in intentional ways. The engineering and technology practices can instead be blended into existing math and science lessons in ways that engage students and help them master twenty-first century skills. The course provides five guiding principles for effective STEM instruction, classroom examples of what these principles look like in action, sample activities that put all four STEM fields into practice, and lesson planning templates for STEM units.
