Teachers typically perform identification, coordination and projection on the particular STEM representations used in projects in order to improve the cohesion of the conceptual content of a curriculum unit. Teachers also perform explicit identification to label central invariant relations that are the conceptual focus of their instruction.
To forge cohesion, teachers use coordination of representations, tools and materials, and they use projection to reference places and past and future events. We analyze multi-viewpoint videos of multi-day classroom activities from Project Lead the Way (PLTW) classes in digital electronics in two urban high schools. Our novel claim is that one key mechanism of STEM integration is producing and maintaining cohesion of central concepts across the range of representations, objects, activities, and social structures in the engineering classroom. The mechanisms of STEM integration (iSTEM) remain largely underspecified in the research and policy literatures. SOURCE: Journal of Engineering Education. TITLE: Building Cohesion Across Representations: A Mechanism for STEM Integration. The project was very beneficial in assessing the student outcomes a, c, d, e and k which introduced by ABET accreditation criteria. In this article, an undergraduate design experience in digital logic design course of special purpose arithmetic logic unit using Multisim, Y-0010/0020 Experiment Sets and Ulti-Board Kit is presented as an integral part of several electrical engineering courses throughout the curriculum at King Faisal University. Using this approach, the student will gain the required knowledge in an atmosphere of groups of teams where students can experience and learn the most needed inquiry, research tools and skills, teamwork skills, leadership skills, accountability, communication skills, interdisciplinary experience, curiosity, planning skills, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills. Project-Based Curriculum (PBC) is considered one of the most powerful methods in the engineering education where each course or courses-cluster is assigned a design project, which considers a series of inter-related concepts that have been shown theoretically for the students.
