Abstract

This work reflects the positive and negative practices and experiences of an engineer with experience in STEM education activities at the K-5 level. As children, one of the most common questions we heard asked was: "Where do we need Math in real life?" A valid question since most school children are not taught the long term career possibilities of STEM fields. Through a healthy balance between theory and practice, along with constant reminders of the successful possibilities a strong STEM background can hold for students, I believe that STEM interest and success can be achieved. Fundamental STEM education practices need to be reassessed to improve STEM education interest. Some of these possible solutions are summarized in this work.

STEM K-5教育工作者的经历
这项工作反映了具有K-5级STEM教育活动经验的工程师的积极和消极做法和经验。作为孩子,我们最常听到的问题之一是:“在现实生活中,我们在哪里需要数学?”这是一个有效的问题,因为大多数学校的孩子都没有被教导STEM领域的长期职业可能性。通过理论与实践之间的健康平衡,以及不断提醒学生强大的STEM背景可以为学生带来成功的可能性,我相信STEM的兴趣和成功是可以实现的。需要重新评估基础STEM教育实践,以提高STEM教育的兴趣。本文总结了其中一些可能的解决方案。
