The Handbook of Research on STEM Education represents a
groundbreaking and comprehensive synthesis of research and
presentation of policy within the realm of science, technology,
engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education. What distinguishes
this Handbook from others is the nature of integration of the
disciplines that is the founding premise for the work - all
chapters in this book speak directly to the integration of STEM,
rather than discussion of research within the individual content
areas. The Handbook of Research on STEM Education explores the most
pressing areas of STEM within an international context. Divided
into six sections, the authors cover topics including: the nature
of STEM, STEM learning, STEM pedagogy, curriculum and assessment,
critical issues in STEM, STEM teacher education, and STEM policy
and reform. The Handbook utilizes the lens of equity and access by
focusing on STEM literacy, early childhood STEM, learners with
disabilities, informal STEM, socio-scientific issues, race-related
factors, gender equity, cultural-relevancy, and parental
involvement. Additionally, discussion of STEM education policy in a
variety of countries is included, as well as a focus on engaging
business/industry and teachers in advocacy for STEM education. The
Handbook's 37 chapters provide a deep and meaningful landscape of
the implementation of STEM over the past two decades. As such, the
findings that are presented within provide the reader with clear
directions for future research into effective practice and supports
for integrated STEM, which are grounded in the literature to date.
