The M in STEM: Using Mathematics Methods Courses to Support Preservice P-5 Teachers' Understanding and Use of STEM Integration Practices
Educational Forum, v87 n2 p98-111 2023
This article describes how mathematics method courses could become opportunities for integrating preservice P-5 teachers' mathematics learning experiences to science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). I explore varying dynamics that impact preservice P-5 teachers' mathematics-STEM experiences and highlight how teacher educators could use mathematics method courses to develop STEM integration. Informed by these important dynamics, I share recommendations.
