Four Criteria from the Data:
1. Open coding of description (analysis activities):
fairly natural, personal experience/background,
STEM integration, and who I am.
2. Aim: personal experience/background vs STEM
integration
3. Question (issue): personal experience/background
may contribute to the difficulties/doubts of STEM
integration.
4. Result: Because the interviewee has personal background/experience highly relevant to STEM subjects,
STEM integration to this interviewee is 1) not a new
idea, 2) fairly natural, and 3) not a struggle.
