This book examines current efforts to connect the STEM disciplines in K-12 education. This issue identifies and characterizes existing approaches to integrated STEM education, both in formal and after- and out-of-school settings.


The book reviews the evidence for the impact of integrated approaches on various student outcomes, and it proposes a set of priority research questions to advance the understanding of integrated STEM education.
STEM Integration in K-12 Education proposes a framework to provide a common perspective and vocabulary for researchers, practitioners, and others to identify, discuss, and investigate specific integrated STEM initiatives within the K-12 education system of the United States.
The book makes recommendations for designers of integrated STEM experiences, assessment developers, and researchers to design and document effective integrated STEM education.
This volume will help to further their work and improve the chances that some forms of integrated STEM education will make a positive difference in student learning and interest and other valued outcomes.
