This nonfiction science reader will help fifth grade students gain
science content knowledge while building their reading
comprehension and literacy skills. This purposefully leveled text
features hands-on, challenging science experiments and full-color
images. Students will learn all about the Milky Way through this
engaging text that supports STEM education and is aligned to the
Next Generation Science Standards. Important text features like a
glossary and index will improve students close reading skills.
Due to the recent global pandemic, educators of science and
technology have had to pivot and adapt their delivery to create
alternative virtual means of delivery. The COVID-19 pandemic has
influenced a rapid change in teaching and learning in higher
education. It is reshaping curriculum demands, the 21st century
digital competence challenges, and learning technologies. These
changes in education are likely to endure well past the COVID-19
pandemic, making it crucial for educators to consider teaching and
learning under the perspectives of digital education and
innovation. Advancing STEM Education and Innovation in a Time of
Distance Learning highlights the contemporary trends and challenges
in science, technology, mathematics, and engineering education. The
chapters present findings and discussions of relevant research
studies and theoretical frameworks for the provision of science,
technology, engineering, and technical subjects. It not only
presents successful practice examples from before and during the
COVID-19 pandemic, but also provides useful information to assist
educators in understanding the demands and challenges of digital
education. Covering topics such as ethnically diverse students,
foreign language learning, and mobile gamification, this premier
reference source is an essential resource for educators and
administrators of both K-12 and higher education, pre-service
teachers, teacher educators, librarians, government officials,
researchers, and academicians.

out-of-this-world!
Imagine a world of innovative, communicative, collaborative and thoughtful problem-solvers. Now imagine a world where needs are met, problems are solved and sustainable decisions are made. Wouldn’t it be fabulous?
The STEM projects series provides opportunities for students to develop Science knowledge and skills, Design and technology skills, Mathematics skills and general capabilities while completing short or long-term projects. It encourages students to follow a consistent design process while completing the projects, including finding out information, planning and designing, creating, evaluating and communicating.
The projects allow students to work in small teams, using effective communication and collaboration skills, to plan, design, create and evaluate a thoughtful and innovative solution to a given task. When satisfied with their solutions, students showcase and discuss their design, explaining how science was used throughout the project.
The STEM projects series contains:
- two introductory cards explaining STEM education; time allocations for using the cards; and tips for planning, differentiating, teaching and assessing STEM projects, as well as classroom management and resource management ideas,
- one card with icons explaining each step of the design process, in child-friendly language,
- one card explaining the Science sub-strand; how the projects can be linked to Design and technology, Digital technology and Mathematics skills; and providing an overview of each project contained within the sub-strand, including the task and the specific materials required,
- six short-term projects and one long-term project for each sub-strand of Australian Curriculum: Science, and
- six copies of each project to allow for small-group use, 28 individual cards per box
