The PLC activities.Were highly structured and closely tied to the training days.Of the module for teachers to meet together and reflect on.How what they learned during the training sessions and to,,Share / learn how to implement the training into their classrooms. The training topics included (1) exploring engineering. As a discipline and the engineering design cycle, (2).Exploring mathematical connections to engineering design.Cycles lessons, (3) exploring mathematical thinking through.Model-Eliciting Activities (Lesh, & Doerr 2003), (4).Integrating technology to enhance learning, of Science,, engineering and mathematics and (5) orchestrating student.Discussions around STEM concepts (see Table 1 for more.Detailed information about each training day). The facilitators focused on providing direct STEM integration.Learning experiences that were used to develop a framework for STEM integration and sample activities that could.Be used by teachers in their classrooms.
