What is it?
• An adaptation of the Scientist’s Notebook– East Bay Educational Collaborative
http://www.ebecri.org/custom/toolkit.html
![Page 4: STEM Curriculum Integrations. The Mathematicians/ Scientists/Engineers Notebook](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/5514100b550346d8488b5021/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Student’s Model the Way Mathematicians, Scientists,
and Engineers Work
• Each notebook is unique to that person, that problem, that situation
• The notebook is a collection of thoughts, ideas, sketches, data, equations – a running record of the mathematician’s/scientist’s/engineer’s thoughts
![Page 5: STEM Curriculum Integrations. The Mathematicians/ Scientists/Engineers Notebook](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/5514100b550346d8488b5021/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Student’s Model the Way M/S/E Work
• It is not necessarily organized or neat
• There is no “right way” or format• Dr. Jennifer Anderson, Brown University
![Page 6: STEM Curriculum Integrations. The Mathematicians/ Scientists/Engineers Notebook](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/5514100b550346d8488b5021/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Why use the M/S/E Notebook?
“From Galileo to today’s scientists and mathematicians …, notebooks have been used to document …discovery. Notebooks are also effective tools in the classroom. They make science and mathematics experiences more meaningful and authentic for students as they observe, record, and reflect on what they've learned.”
![Page 7: STEM Curriculum Integrations. The Mathematicians/ Scientists/Engineers Notebook](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/5514100b550346d8488b5021/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Students use notebooks during class
• As a guide and/or reference• As a place to record
data, observations, illustrations, reflections questions,ideas while working
• As a place to collect and record claims and evidence to support their inquiry
• To make thinking visible• To document their organizational
growth over time
Notebooks make
students accountable
for their
learning…Dr. Jennifer Anderson, Brown University

Let’s Begin
• Materials:– Notebook– Post-it® notes– Post-it® flags– Scissors– Tape, glue– Handouts

Bell Ringer
What Year Am I?On January 30 of this year, the first radio broadcast of The Lone Ranger was heard in the United States. The song played at the beginning of the program was the “William Tell overture” from Rossini’s
opera. The program started and ended with the phrase “Heigh-ho, Silver.”

What Year Am I?
• The product of my tens and units digits is equal to my hundreds digit.
• My tens and units digits could be the sides of a square with a perimeter of 12.–What year am I?
• 1933

A Formative Assessment
![Page 18: STEM Curriculum Integrations. The Mathematicians/ Scientists/Engineers Notebook](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/5514100b550346d8488b5021/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Beliefs About Inquiry& Problem Solving
For all students!
Chaotic!
Easy to implement! Eats up valuable time and money!
![Page 19: STEM Curriculum Integrations. The Mathematicians/ Scientists/Engineers Notebook](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/5514100b550346d8488b5021/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
1. For students to be truly engaged in
scientific inquiry they have to be doing
hands-on activities.
![Page 20: STEM Curriculum Integrations. The Mathematicians/ Scientists/Engineers Notebook](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/5514100b550346d8488b5021/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
2. With all of the Learning Expectations that students need to meet, teachers often conclude that there
really isn’t enough time in the day for problem
solving or inquiry.
![Page 21: STEM Curriculum Integrations. The Mathematicians/ Scientists/Engineers Notebook](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/5514100b550346d8488b5021/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
3. Scientific inquiry and mathematical
inquiry are essentially one and the same.
![Page 22: STEM Curriculum Integrations. The Mathematicians/ Scientists/Engineers Notebook](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/5514100b550346d8488b5021/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
4. Students typically hesitate to begin representing a
problem unless they can see a sure
method for solving it.
![Page 23: STEM Curriculum Integrations. The Mathematicians/ Scientists/Engineers Notebook](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/5514100b550346d8488b5021/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
5. Inquiry and problem solving both involve step-by-step processes that must
be followed.
![Page 24: STEM Curriculum Integrations. The Mathematicians/ Scientists/Engineers Notebook](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/5514100b550346d8488b5021/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
6. What students learn through inquiry
or problem solving cannot be accurately
assessed.
![Page 25: STEM Curriculum Integrations. The Mathematicians/ Scientists/Engineers Notebook](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/5514100b550346d8488b5021/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
7. Student success in inquiry and problem solving is very much
age-dependent.
![Page 26: STEM Curriculum Integrations. The Mathematicians/ Scientists/Engineers Notebook](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/5514100b550346d8488b5021/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
8. Solving a multi-step problem can be
discouraging because students have difficulty identifying the piece to work on first or work on too many parts at
once.
![Page 27: STEM Curriculum Integrations. The Mathematicians/ Scientists/Engineers Notebook](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/5514100b550346d8488b5021/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
9. Students believe that there is only one correct way to solve a problem and only one
correct answer.
![Page 28: STEM Curriculum Integrations. The Mathematicians/ Scientists/Engineers Notebook](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/5514100b550346d8488b5021/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
10. Students believe that a problem can
either be solved quickly or that it’s
not possible to solve the problem…end of
story.

Why Do We Need STEM Education?
![Page 30: STEM Curriculum Integrations. The Mathematicians/ Scientists/Engineers Notebook](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/5514100b550346d8488b5021/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Paper Cup Challenge
MATERIALS: • small paper drinking cups• 2 cardboard squares 24" X 24" each
INQUIRY:• Can you make a platform with cups and a piece
of cardboard that will support your weight?
![Page 31: STEM Curriculum Integrations. The Mathematicians/ Scientists/Engineers Notebook](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/5514100b550346d8488b5021/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Instructions
• Place one cardboard square on the floor, and put a bunch of cups face down on top of it.
• When you think you have enough cups to support your weight, put the other cardboard square on top.
• With a friend to spot you, carefully stand on the platform.
• Did the platform hold you? If it did, try using fewer cups.
• Try to determine the minimum number of cups that are needed to support your weight.
![Page 32: STEM Curriculum Integrations. The Mathematicians/ Scientists/Engineers Notebook](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/5514100b550346d8488b5021/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
The Results?
• How would you go about finding the smallest number of cups needed to support your weight?
• Why do you think cups are often tapered so they are a little wider at the top that at the bottom?
• Is the round shape important?
![Page 33: STEM Curriculum Integrations. The Mathematicians/ Scientists/Engineers Notebook](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061305/5514100b550346d8488b5021/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
The Results?
• What do you think would happen if you tried this activity with milk cartons or some other shape?
• When columns are used to support a building, what are the advantages of using hollow columns? What are the disadvantages?

Next Steps…
• Needs….• Time available….
– Suggested dates are one day during intersession (March 15th or March 18th) and Saturday, May 7th.
– Follow-up meetings, once a month, via webcast/satellite, can be held to work with the teachers in small groups as they begin the process of reviewing resources available for stem curriculum integrations.
