Center for STEM Education</a>, and <strong>Dr. Jose-Felipe Martínez</strong> of UCLA’s <a href="https://gseis.ucla.edu/" target="_blank">Graduate School of Education and Information Studies</a>, have received a $1.5 million grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) to examine how vertical teams of teachers – teachers across grade levels – can use a portfolio app to create and make instructional decisions about learning trajectories in physical science.</span></span></span></span></span></p> <p><span><span><span><span><span>Recent reforms in science education have identified a small number of core science ideas that spiral in increasing depth across a young person’s science learning experience. The SPIRAL project will use an existing digital app to collect a diverse set of student artifacts, such as videos of discussions, written responses, and photos of student work, from K-8 science classrooms. The app was developed by the same research team in a previous research study supported by NSF.</span></span></span></span></span></p> <p><span><span><span><span><span>“Evidence of student thinking is critical to creating high-quality science learning experiences. Better understanding how teachers can use artifacts from the classroom to think about the long view of student learning could result in new ways of how we think about science education systemically, instead of as individual teachers isolated within their own classrooms,” said Matt Kloser on the launch of this new study.</span></span></span></span></span></p> <p><span><span><span><span><span>Teams of teachers representing different grades – for example, a team of teachers representing kindergarten and third and sixth grades – will work as a vertically aligned professional learning community (PLC) to investigate student thinking and practices related to core concepts in physical science that spiral through these grades.</span></span></span></span></span></p> <p><span><span><span><span><span>Members of the PLC will create rich digital portfolios of students’ learning trajectories using the artifacts and the digital portfolio.

I really like the Tom Dooley statue right at the edge of the Grotto.</p> <h3>What drew you back to Notre Dame?</h3> <p style="margin-left: 40px">As a Catholic from Indiana, Notre Dame was always a second home. The intersection of community and faith: pushing our understanding intellectually. It’s a place where I felt I could fully be myself and also push myself.</p> <h3>Why this book and why now?</h3> <p style="margin-left: 40px">This is definitely not my book. It’s a book from the field that has three amazing co-editors in <strong>David Stroupe, Karen Hammerness, and Scott McDonald</strong>: people who I now work with in different capacities. There’s been a movement that’s rooted in decades of work on how we create more intellectually rigorous and equitable classrooms. How do we prepare teachers to do that in increasingly diverse settings? The whole group is focused on ambitious science teaching. Young people can do phenomenal thinking about science and do elements of science that are often left behind when we treat science as what Schwab would call “a rhetoric of conclusions.” All of those ideas come from somewhere—and too often we leave behind those – especially who are marginalized – by focusing on facts and trying to engage in rote memorization. This book is focused on training teachers in a field that doesn’t have a standardized mechanism for doing so, in ways that reflect the amazing capacity that young people have in a science context. There are things we can do at scale across multiple institutions so we don’t have to reinvent the wheel. We can work as a community to build the tools, resources, and language necessary to have really impactful and effective teacher education. This book pulled together authors who believe this and who are now working together even more so after the creation of this book to further science teacher education.</p> <h3>What do you say to someone who thinks they are not a “STEM person”?</h3> <p style="margin-left: 40px">Everyone should feel that they are a STEM person. They may not choose a STEM career, but when you walk around nature and wonder and see something that makes you curious and you want to know more about it… that’s you wanting to engage in the scientific world. Seeing how patterns and shapes work… you’re a math person! We’ve made it such that we think of things as learning in an in-school context, but we have to think: how do we unleash that for you now?</p> <h3>What drives your passion for STEM?</h3> <p style="margin-left: 40px">First and foremost is wonder and awe. It can be from a secular or faith perspective. Nature is amazing and wonderful. If we take this idea of being made in the image and likeness of God, part of the image of God is taking part in creative endeavors. We’ve developed a power over time to explain the world around us. To create and design in ways that produce new tools and new possibilities. For me, it’s part of that wonder and awe that the world around us has predictive value. The second is, young people—and I think all people— are naturally curious. So how do we engage the world around us and address those curiosities. Science provides one means that is reliable to answering some of those questions. Third, science is useful. It does things for us. It is a body of knowledge that can be used for the common good. Those three things working together are a great reason why I work in science education.</p> <h3>Is there something that particularly sparked your curiosity for STEM?</h3> <p style="margin-left: 40px">I’ve always been fascinated by science. I wish I could have my K-12 science education back and even part of my undergraduate education because I was doing it for the wrong reasons. I think I would’ve been even more on fire. I was too grade-oriented and worried about getting the right answer. I missed the forest through the trees of the big things I could think about, question, and try to use data to answer. I would’ve loved to have the mindset I do now when I was growing up. I believe I would’ve gone down the same path, but I would’ve maximized those learning opportunities even more.</p> <h3>Is there something you want children to understand about STEM?</h3> <p style="margin-left: 40px">There is school-based science education, and that’s a great place for this to happen. But don’t try to do school science. Try to engage in science and learn about science for its own sake. It can help be a force for good in the world. It can help you shape your own future and decisions. Keep maximizing your curiosity and keep asking questions that you want to answer about the world.</p> <h3>What is the biggest positive to being a part of the <span>Center for STEM Education?</span></h3> <p style="margin-left: 40px">We’re working together but bringing unique perspectives and talents—a lot of people talk about translation of research to practice—but as a Center, we are wholly committed and wholly living that out every day. We’re working with teachers, striving to make a difference in the lives of young people through the formation of teachers and great STEM teacher-leaders. That is influencing the type of research questions we take up. Our programs are providing data for those research. We’re also doing basic research that is funneling right into many of our programs and influencing them in ways that wouldn’t if they were static, standalone professional development experiences. That duality of always thinking about the research and the practice together - they are part and parcel to each other.</p> <h3>What advice would you give to someone who is just beginning a career in science education research?</h3> <p style="margin-left: 40px">Find great questions and don’t be afraid to commit to questions that have social value. There are misperceptions of researchers as totally objective and removed from application. One can do high-quality research that has been critiqued and accepted by the community that also has implications for young people, teachers, and learning systems. If we spend more time on finding good problem spaces and asking great questions, the methods and data follow more easily, resulting in higher impact for the field.</p> </div> <!-- END OUTPUT from

inattentiveness in STEM learning. The project captured the attention of the National Science Foundation (NSF), which recently announced it will support the work of fellows Sidney D’Mello and Matthew Kloser along with Psychology professor James Brockmole with a three-year grant totaling $550,000.</p> <p>D’Mello, a cognitive sciences scholar in the University’s Department of Psychology, Brockmole, an expert in visual attention, and Kloser, an expert on the pedagogy of science who directs the <a href="http://stemeducation.nd.edu/">Notre Dame Center for STEM Education</a> in the Institute, are part of a research effort to fight the problem called mind wandering (MW).</p> <p>Studies have determined that the problem is rampant among high school students in the science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) disciplines, risking a waste of time and talent.</p> <p>D’Mello, as principal investigator (PI) under the NSF grant, will team with Kloser (faculty advisor)—as well as Notre Dame psychologist James Brockmole (co-PI) and off-campus colleagues—to design, build, and test an intelligent learning system that automatically detects and responds to a student’s attentional state in real time.</p> <p>“Combating mind-wandering in this way can increase attentiveness, comprehension, and learning gains,” said D’Mello in describing the project, which is called “Attention-Aware Cyberlearning to Detect and Combat Inattentiveness during Learning.”</p> <p>“It’s been estimated that students zone out about 30-40 percent of the time when they’re reading instructional materials or viewing online lectures,” D’Mello said.</p> <p>The grant will support a unique, interdisciplinary blend of basic and applied research in attention, learning, affect, eye-training, mental-state estimation, and computational modeling, according to D’Mello and Kloser.</p> <p>A cyberlearning technology already used by some biology teachers—including a graduate of the Institutes’ <a href="http://ace.nd.edu/">Alliance for Catholic Education (ACE)</a> teacher formation initiative—relies on a student-computer dialogue. The researchers aim to build upon that interaction to design “an attention-aware learning technology that detects and combats wandering minds,” Kloser said.</p> <p>The <a href="http://iei.nd.edu/">Institute</a> fellows and their colleagues are focused not only on the national interest represented by NSF funding and the enrichment of STEM learning for the 21st century, but on local community interests, as well. Their research will be conducted in the 9th grade biology classrooms of a school district, called Penn-Harris-Madison, located close to Notre Dame’s campus.</p></div> <!-- END OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/iei/templates/field/field--text-long.html.twig' --> <!-- THEME DEBUG --> <!-- THEME HOOK: 'field' --> <!-- FILE NAME SUGGESTIONS: * field--node--field-news-tags--news.html.twig * field--node--field-news-tags.html.twig * field--node--news.html.twig * field--field-news-tags.html.twig * field--entity-reference.html.twig x field.html.twig --> <!-- BEGIN OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/iei/templates/field/field.html.twig' --> <div class="field field--name-field-news-tags field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/199" hreflang="en">Sidney D&#039;Mello</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/194" hreflang="en">Matt Kloser</a></div> </div> <!-- END OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/iei/templates/field/field.html.twig' --> <!-- THEME DEBUG --> <!-- THEME HOOK: 'field' --> <!-- FILE NAME SUGGESTIONS: * field--node--field-initiative--news.html.twig * field--node--field-initiative.html.twig * field--node--news.html.twig * field--field-initiative.html.twig * field--entity-reference.html.twig x field.html.twig --> <!-- BEGIN OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/iei/templates/field/field.html.twig' --> <div class="field field--name-field-initiative field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/178" hreflang="en">Institute for Educational Initiatives</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/22" hreflang="en">Notre Dame Center for STEM Education</a></div> </div> <!-- END OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/iei/templates/field/field.html.twig' --> Wed, 09 Sep 2015 16:26:32 +0000 tim 662 at https://iei.nd.edu Research Award Goes to Kloser of Center for STEM Education https://iei.nd.edu/initiatives/institute-for-educational-initiatives/news/research-award-goes-to-kloser-of-center-for <!-- THEME DEBUG --> <!-- THEME HOOK: 'field' --> <!-- FILE NAME SUGGESTIONS: * field--node--title--news.html.twig x field--node--title.html.twig * field--node--news.html.twig * field--title.html.twig * field--string.html.twig * field.html.twig --> <!-- BEGIN OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/iei/templates/field/field--node--title.html.twig' --> <span class="field field--name-title field--type-string field--label-hidden">Research Award Goes to Kloser of Center for STEM Education</span> <!-- END OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/iei/templates/field/field--node--title.html.twig' --> <!-- THEME DEBUG --> <!-- THEME HOOK: 'field' --> <!-- FILE NAME SUGGESTIONS: * field--node--uid--news.html.twig x field--node--uid.html.twig * field--node--news.html.twig * field--uid.html.twig * field--entity-reference.html.twig * field.html.twig --> <!-- BEGIN OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/iei/templates/field/field--node--uid.html.twig' --> <span class="field field--name-uid field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden"> <!-- THEME DEBUG --> <!-- THEME HOOK: 'username' --> <!-- BEGIN OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/iei/templates/user/username.html.twig' --> <span lang="" about="/user/38" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype="">tim</span> <!-- END OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/iei/templates/user/username.html.twig' --> </span> <!-- END OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/iei/templates/field/field--node--uid.html.twig' --> <!-- THEME DEBUG --> <!-- THEME HOOK: 'field' --> <!-- FILE NAME SUGGESTIONS: * field--node--created--news.html.twig x field--node--created.html.twig * field--node--news.html.twig * field--created.html.twig * field--created.html.twig * field.html.twig --> <!-- BEGIN OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/iei/templates/field/field--node--created.html.twig' --> <span class="field field--name-created field--type-created field--label-hidden">Wed, 03/11/2015 -

In order to foster growth in these disciplines, the University of Notre Dame’s Center for STEM Education is launching the Trustey Family STEM Teaching Fellows Program.</p> <p>Study after study has shown that, more than any other factor within the control of schools, instructional practice best predicts successful student achievement. In addition, while teaching practice remains the single most important factor in a child’s academic development, maintaining a qualified and effective teaching force remains challenging. National studies indicate that nearly half of new teachers leave the profession within their first five years. A disproportionate number of these teachers focus their teaching on the STEM disciplines and often leave the profession for more lucrative financial opportunities in the private sector.</p> <p><a href="http://stemeducation.nd.edu/">Notre Dame’s Center for STEM Education</a> plans to develop targeted strategies to address this dual challenge. First, the Trustey Family STEM Teaching Fellows program will develop strategies to recruit ambitious early-career STEM educators to participate in an innovative and comprehensive professional formation program to enhance their teaching skills. Second, over time, the program aims to develop a national corps of professional educators who are committed to long-term and continuing and rigorous formation in instructional leadership in STEM disciplines.</p> <p>“The importance of the STEM disciplines for the future of our children and our country cannot be overstated, and the Trustey Family STEM Teaching Fellows program is enabling Notre Dame to work toward dramatically increasing the quality of instruction for tens of thousands of students,” Rev. Timothy R. Scully, Hackett Family Director of the Institute for Educational Initiatives, said.</p> <p>“We know that nothing impacts student learning more than great teaching, and there is no more important area in which we can help the youth of our country than in providing them a rigorous and engaging STEM learning experience,” Director of Notre Dame’s Center for STEM Education Dr. Matt Kloser said. “This program is committed to measuring the impact of its efforts, improving the program based on data, and keeping teachers engaged in a supportive and mission-driven network of STEM teachers.”</p> <p>The Trustey Family STEM Teaching Fellows program will help the Institute continue to develop hundreds of STEM educators who will serve a critical and growing need in elementary and secondary schools across the country with a particular focus on Catholic schools. It is the most recent initiative of Notre Dame's Center for STEM Education, which, through research and the translation of research into practice, seeks to increase student interest and learning in the STEM disciplines.</p> <p>For more information: Dr. Matt Kloser at mkloser@nd.edu</p></div> <!-- END OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/iei/templates/field/field--text-long.html.twig' --> <!-- THEME DEBUG --> <!-- THEME HOOK: 'field' --> <!-- FILE NAME SUGGESTIONS: * field--node--field-news-tags--news.html.twig * field--node--field-news-tags.html.twig * field--node--news.html.twig * field--field-news-tags.html.twig * field--entity-reference.html.twig x field.html.twig --> <!-- BEGIN OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/iei/templates/field/field.html.twig' --> <div class="field field--name-field-news-tags field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/194" hreflang="en">Matt Kloser</a></div> </div> <!-- END OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/iei/templates/field/field.html.twig' --> <!-- THEME DEBUG --> <!-- THEME HOOK: 'field' --> <!-- FILE NAME SUGGESTIONS: * field--node--field-initiative--news.html.twig * field--node--field-initiative.html.twig * field--node--news.html.twig * field--field-initiative.html.twig * field--entity-reference.html.twig x field.html.twig --> <!-- BEGIN OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/iei/templates/field/field.html.twig' --> <div class="field field--name-field-initiative field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/178" hreflang="en">Institute for Educational Initiatives</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/22" hreflang="en">Notre Dame Center for STEM Education</a></div> </div> <!-- END OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/iei/templates/field/field.html.twig' --> Fri, 03 Oct 2014 05:44:25 +0000 tim 788 at https://iei.nd.edu Notre Dame Center for STEM Education Programming and Robotics Camp Yields Success for Middle School Students https://iei.nd.edu/initiatives/institute-for-educational-initiatives/news/notre-dame-center-for-stem-education <!-- THEME DEBUG --> <!-- THEME HOOK: 'field' --> <!-- FILE NAME SUGGESTIONS: * field--node--title--news.html.twig x field--node--title.html.twig * field--node--news.html.twig * field--title.html.twig * field--string.html.twig * field.html.twig --> <!-- BEGIN OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/iei/templates/field/field--node--title.html.twig' --> <span class="field field--name-title field--type-string field--label-hidden">Notre Dame Center for STEM Education Programming and Robotics Camp Yields Success for Middle School Students</span> <!-- END OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/iei/templates/field/field--node--title.html.twig' --> <!-- THEME DEBUG --> <!-- THEME HOOK: 'field' --> <!-- FILE NAME SUGGESTIONS: * field--node--uid--news.html.twig x field--node--uid.html.twig * field--node--news.html.twig * field--uid.html.twig * field--entity-reference.html.twig * field.html.twig --> <!-- BEGIN OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/iei/templates/field/field--node--uid.html.twig' --> <span class="field field--name-uid field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden"> <!-- THEME DEBUG --> <!-- THEME HOOK: 'username' --> <!-- BEGIN OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/iei/templates/user/username.html.twig' --> <span lang="" about="/user/38" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype="">tim</span> <!-- END OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/iei/templates/user/username.html.twig' --> </span> <!-- END OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/iei/templates/field/field--node--uid.html.twig' --> <!-- THEME DEBUG --> <!-- THEME HOOK: 'field' --> <!-- FILE NAME SUGGESTIONS: * field--node--created--news.html.twig x field--node--created.html.twig * field--node--news.html.twig * field--created.html.twig * field--created.html.twig * field.html.twig --> <!-- BEGIN OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/iei/templates/field/field--node--created.html.twig' --> <span class="field field--name-created field--type-created field--label-hidden">Fri, 08/22/2014 -

A distinctively early, effective, and hands-on introduction to computer programming yielded exciting experiences for students, teachers, and parents alike.</p> <p>J.C. Clark, one of the two curriculum designers working with Kloser, returned to northern Indiana this July to serve as lead instructor for the roll-out held at Marian High School. He said he was delighted with the results.</p> <p>“I’ve been blown away by how much these kids have progressed,” he commented. “I feel so blessed to be teaching this camp to these kids and just seeing their growth.” He noted the capstone project in which students customized behaviors for their Finches to act without remote control, in response to their built-in sensors.</p> <p>Camp instruction at St. Luke School in Palm Beach earlier in the summer also yielded impressive results, according to a report in <a href="http://thefloridacatholic.org/iv/summertime_fun__robot_programming"><em>The Florida Catholic</em></a><em>. </em>Finches at all of the sites displayed their programming through singing, dancing, reacting to heat and light, and much more.</p> <p>The initiative, ready for roll-out to more Catholic school students in collaboration with various dioceses, strives to excite young people, including females and underrepresented populations, about programming and STEM literacy.</p> <p>“The majority of jobs in the future will probably deal with some sort of computer applications, probably a lot with computer science,” said Clark, describing his goals for the curriculum at Marian. “The more you can get kids exposed to computer science, the better.”</p> <p>Clark, a 2013 M. Ed. recipient through ACE and now a high school science teacher in Denver, assisted Kloser in the curriculum planning, along with Michael Comuniello. He teaches high school science with ACE in the Tampa Bay area. The Center and ACE are part of Notre Dame’s <a href="http://iei.nd.edu/">Institute for Educational Initiatives</a>.</p> <p><em>Photos are taken from the Palm Beach, FL, ND CORE camp experience hosted

href="https://stemeducation.nd.edu/">The Notre Dame Center for STEM Education</a> has been awarded a $300,000 grant by the Spencer Foundation to study how indicators of student learning can influence—and help to improve—the instructional practices of middle-school science teachers in the classroom.</p> <p>This grant, part of the Foundation’s support for pathbreaking research through its “Evidence for the Classroom” initiative, is a collaboration between PI, <a href="https://iei.nd.edu/people/iei-fellows/matthew-kloser/">Dr. Matt Kloser</a> – Director for Notre Dame’s Center for STEM Education, Co-PI Dr. Hilda Borko of Stanford University, and Dr. Felipe Martinez of UCLA.</p> <p>The newly funded project is titled <a href="http://stemeducation.nd.edu/research/qas/">“Improving Science Teachers’ Use of Data for Instructional Decisions: Using Assessment Portfolios for Professional Development.”</a> This 2.5 year project will build upon their previous work to assess quality in science teaching using portfolio artifacts.</p> <p>In this study, middle-school teachers will keep notebook records revealing whether, when, and how they interpret and use student performance data to fine-tune their efforts. The records will be analyzed by the research team led by Kloser,a faculty fellow in Notre Dame’s <a href="https://iei.nd.edu/">Institute for Educational Initiatives</a>.</p> <p>Teachers will also participate in professional development and create action plans to act on the data. Afterwards, the research team will assess how science teachers and students benefited overall from the use of data and from the professional development encouraging smarter use of the indicators.</p> <p>Rev. Timothy Scully, CSC, director of the Institute for Educational Initiatives, congratulated Kloser and the team for receiving the prestigious grant. “This is important research, with key national partners, that will make a significant contribution to the field of science education,” Scully said.</p> <p>The Spencer Foundation, established in 1962, is a major supporter of research deemed valuable in improving education around the world.</p></div> <!-- END OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/iei/templates/field/field--text-long.html.twig' --> <!-- THEME DEBUG --> <!-- THEME HOOK: 'field' --> <!-- FILE NAME SUGGESTIONS: * field--node--field-news-tags--news.html.twig * field--node--field-news-tags.html.twig * field--node--news.html.twig * field--field-news-tags.html.twig * field--entity-reference.html.twig x field.html.twig --> <!-- BEGIN OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/iei/templates/field/field.html.twig' --> <div class="field field--name-field-news-tags field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/194" hreflang="en">Matt Kloser</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/184" hreflang="en">Tim Scully</a></div> </div> <!-- END OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/iei/templates/field/field.html.twig' --> <!-- THEME DEBUG --> <!-- THEME HOOK: 'field' --> <!-- FILE NAME SUGGESTIONS: * field--node--field-initiative--news.html.twig * field--node--field-initiative.html.twig * field--node--news.html.twig * field--field-initiative.html.twig * field--entity-reference.html.twig x field.html.twig --> <!-- BEGIN OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/iei/templates/field/field.html.twig' --> <div class="field field--name-field-initiative field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/178" hreflang="en">Institute for Educational Initiatives</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/22" hreflang="en">Notre Dame Center for STEM Education</a></div> </div> <!-- END OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/iei/templates/field/field.html.twig' --> Thu, 02 Jan 2014 06:15:30 +0000 tim 774 at https://iei.nd.edu
