Homemade Battery Engineering Design Challenge
Students enjoy using inquiry and the engineering design process to answer questions and solve problems. For this engineering design challenge done as part of a high school chemistry lab, students get to design and test their own homemade batteries. They apply previously learned chemistry concepts, such as energy and chemical reactions, to define their own engineering problem and test solutions. They decide what inputs to change and by what amounts, define the constraints, and are responsible for problem solving as a team. Because this battery engineering challenge is student directed, it is also an excellent way to meet the needs of individual students, because it allows students to design experiments based on their interests and current level of understanding. It also gives students freedom to develop an experiment that interests them and one that will challenge their own misconceptions. Although this lesson was created for high school chemistry students, I have included rationale, Next Generation Science Standards-alignment, and an introduction to engineering, so that this could be used for middle level or secondary teacher education programs, as well as university-level introductory chemistry.

A conceptual framework for integrated STEM education
This article outlines a STEM education conceptual framework, with the goal of helping educators conceptualize how STEM cuts across disciplines. The authors claim that in order to prepare students for a complex global society, we must understand the complexity of our own disciplines.

Core Practice Pedagogy: Video Extensions
This resource describes the what, where, how, and why of using the "video extensions" pedagogy, giving you concrete tips for implementing this in a methods course.

Problematizing teaching and learning mathematics as "given" in STEM education
This article calls for two shifts in mathematics education: (1) to reframe mathematics, and all of STEM as a sense-making activity rather than a body of content to be learned, or practices to engage in and (2) to simultaneously focus on how students experience the discipline. The TRU Framework (Schoenfeld, 2019) is presented as a tool to assess classroom instruction towards these means.
