Nate: Science is a framework to approach problem
solving by using scientific methods, and engineering brings
them all together.
Kathy: When I think about math in science, I think about
problem solving as part of math … and engineering is like
inquiry with problem solving.
Amy: Science and math are the content knowledge that
needed to be used to solve a problem in engineering.
Therefore, a generalization that came from this open
coding activity was that all three teachers believed that
STEM subjects are related in a natural way.
