Sheraton Seattle | Seattle | WAPlease provide a one-paragraph bio for each presenter (in the order listed above). The bio shouldnot exceed 70 words and should be written as you would want it to appear on the ASEE websiteand program materials.1)Dr. Stacy Klein-Gardner serves as the Director of the Center for STEM Education for Girls at theHarpeth Hall School in Nashville, TN. Here she leads professional development opportunities inSTEM. This Center also leads a program for rising high school girls that integrates communityservice and engineering design in a global context. She continues to serve as an AdjointProfessor of the Practice of Biomedical Engineering Vanderbilt University.2)3)                                 WORKSHOP INFORMATIONProposed Title:Effective STEM Curriculum for GirlsAbstract: Please provide a concise description that includes the workshop’s learning objectives(maximum 750 characters). The abstract is used on the ASEE website, program materials, andotherK-12 Workshop promotional activities.Each summer the Center for STEM Education for Girls (http://stemefg.org) hosts two weekcamps for local rising high school girls called the STEM Summer Institutes. Our curriculumrevolves around real engineering design projects for the Lwala (Kenya) Community Alliance.The curriculum is truly STEM integrated and is an effective model for school-wide STEM basedprogramming. This workshop will share the research results and curriculum from theseprograms, including the opportunity to participate in one hands-on engineering design project.We will also discuss the specific needs of girls in STEM, based on the literature. Tips forauthentic assessment of this work will be provided and links to standards made.2015-ASEE-K12-Proposal-Form Klein-Gardner Page 2 of 7                     WORKSHOP PROPOSAL FORM                2015 Annual ASEE K-12 Workshop on Engineering Education             “Authentic Engineering: Representing & Emphasizing the E in STEM”                               Presented by Dassault Systems                                      Saturday, June 13, 2015                                      8:00 A.M. – 5:00 P.M.                                   Sheraton Seattle | Seattle | WAWorkshop Description. Please provide a detailed description of the proposed workshop that, atminimum, explicitly addresses the following (maximum 4,000 characters):         a. Learning objectives         b. Hands-on activities and interactive exercises         c. Materials that participants can take with them         d. Practical application for teachers and outreach staff           a. Participants will be able to review their own STEM plans with effectiveness for              girls in mind. They will also be able to take back general ideas on how to create              new STEM-based school-wide curriculum or simply how to do effective STEM-              integrated curriculum in an individual teacher’s classroom. For participants who              are new to engineering design, they will participate in a hands-on activity that              they could implement in their home schools. Participants should learn how to              seek and implement service learning projects – shown to be important especially              to girls – as a means of creating STEM integrated curriculum. Participants will be              introduced to authentic assessment measures, including the Innovation Portal.           b.

Materials       Specifics of the STEM Summer Institute 2014 Curriculum       d. Practical Application for teachers and outreach staff       This curriculum could be used at a grade-level as a means of integrating STEM across the       subjects. Assessment methods will be addressed. Schools often need more examples of       real-world STEM integration to use in their classrooms. Utilizing service learning and       engineering is a key way to accomplish that. Other outreach staff could implement a       similar program at their university, which is actually one of the goals of my Center for       STEM Education for Girls.2015-ASEE-K12-Proposal-Form Klein-Gardner Page 3 of 7                     WORKSHOP PROPOSAL FORM                2015 Annual ASEE K-12 Workshop on Engineering Education             “Authentic Engineering: Representing & Emphasizing the E in STEM”                               Presented by Dassault Systems                                      Saturday, June 13, 2015                                      8:00 A.M. – 5:00 P.M.

Sheraton Seattle | Seattle | WAAuthentic Engineering Connection. Identify and describe how you will explicitly address theways in which your lesson or activity is representative of the processes, habits of mind andpractices used by engineers, or is demonstrative of work in specific engineering fields.i At leastone of those must be within the first four listed, below; i.e., do not only check “other”. Check allthat apply:          Use of an engineering design process that has at least one iteration/improvement          Attention to specific engineering habits of mind          Attention to engineering practices (as described in the NGSS/Framework and as          practiced by engineers)          Attention to specific engineering careers or fields related to the lesson/activity          Other (please describe below)Provide a description of how you will explicitly address these aspects of authentic engineering inyour workshop (maximum 2,000 characters):Participants will be exposed to all steps of the engineering design process during the workshopand will actually take part in some of those steps (brainstorm, plan, some building). Ties will bemade between the curriculum at hand and the engineering careers/fields which utilize theconcepts and specific project. Ways to bring those types of engineers into the classroom inmeaningful ways will be discussed.Diversity. This year is the American Society for Engineering Education’s “Year of Action onDiversity.” It is essential that we have a diverse engineering workforce to solve diverseproblems. To do that and to have an engineering-literate public, it is essential that we reach everypreK-12 student with high-quality engineering education, drawing on issues of access and equityin the classroom and in the curriculum. Reviewers would like to know how your proposedworkshop will address diversity.Provide a description of how you will explicitly address diversity – e.g., diversity with respect togender/sex, ethnicity or race, special education inclusion, socio-economic status, or LGBT status– in your workshop (maximum 2,000 characters):This workshop and the curriculum it is based on come from the Center for STEM Education forGirls where we specifically focus on the needs of girls. We will discuss what makes effectiveSTEM curriculum for girls – or at least aspects of it – and provide the participants with specificexamples.2015-ASEE-K12-Proposal-Form Klein-Gardner Page 5 of 7                      WORKSHOP PROPOSAL FORM                2015 Annual ASEE K-12 Workshop on Engineering Education             “Authentic Engineering: Representing & Emphasizing the E in STEM”                               Presented by Dassault Systems                                         Saturday, June 13, 2015                                         8:00 A.M. – 5:00 P.M.
