Title
Integration by design: Bringing science, math, and technology together through the engineering design process
Abstract
The primary goal of this mini-workshop is to assist participants in developing engineering- and art-based design projects that reinforce concepts in mathematics and science, thus providing an integrative environment for learning. The emerging STEAM (STEM + art, which is also a design discipline) approach emphasizes a hands-on, project-based, interdisciplinary approach to the study of science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM). To emphasize the importance of using engineering design principles to integrate learning in science and math and gain technological literacy, we refer to this approach as STEAMd. This mini-workshop will be of interest to those involved in P-16 engineering education and in developing a philosophy of engineering education that stresses an integrative approach to instruction and practice grounded in design, the fundamental process of engineering.
