  9. Science tested grades

  10. Math tested grades

  11. In general, science results on standardized tests have remained steady.

  12. Math results have remained steady in grades 3-10.

  13. College and Career Readiness participation has increased since 2012.

  14. Most students who took STEM AP courses took the AP exam. NOTE: This data is reported by schools, which may account for the numbers above 100%.

  15. AP Pass rate for STEM courses has remained steady.

  20. 2 | STEM in Indiana Programming and Stakeholders

  21. STEM Certified Schools • Optional certification for Indiana schools • Four-tiered implementation model • Currently 34 STEM certified schools in Indiana

  22. STEM Stakeholder Engagement • Senior IDOE Staff has been meeting with STEM Stakeholders since the beginning of Dr. McCormick’s administration. • Since taking office, Dr. McCormick’s administration has had over 100 engagements with stakeholders regarding our STEM efforts. • STEM Stakeholders helped shape the membership and structure of the STEM Council.

  23. Pathways Project – Based on National Career Clusters • Phase 1 • Agriculture, Education, IT, Health, STEM, & Advanced Manufacturing (ALL of these include STEM related jobs and connections.) • Phase 2 • Transportation, Arts & AV, Hospitality, Public Safety, Business/Marketing, & Architecture and Construction (All of these do as well, although some are more of a loose tie to STEM – Hospitality would be the focus area of Food Science.) • Phase 3 • New Pathways for ALL (all career clusters and all students) (HAND THIS OFF TO KELLY)

  24. 2 | STEM in Indiana The Opportunity

  25. What is our task? “...appropriations shall be used to fund research, surveys, and related staff support activities to develop recommendations to improve elementary and secondary student achievement and participation in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) subjects throughout Indiana and to improve coordination among the various STEM initiatives. The department of education shall collaborate with the commission for higher education, the department of workforce development, the Indiana economic development corporation, the office of the governor, and the business community regarding programs, procedures, funding, and related policy matters to ensure equal and daily access to a quality, standards-based kindergarten through grade 12 STEM education."

  26. What is our task? • Develop a cross-agency, cross-sector policy plan for integrated K-12 STEM education in Indiana. • Bring the plan to the Indiana General Assembly for the 2019 legislative session. • Focused and targeted roadmap for philanthropic and private sector engagement.

  27. 3 | Your engagement with STEM in Indiana

  28. Please share your name, role and organization • How have you engaged in STEM efforts in Indiana?

  29. 4 | Small group discussion: priority areas

  30. To inform our plan, we want to discuss the following questions: 1 • What are the major barriers to implementing STEM policy in Indiana? 2 • How can we best engage business and industry STEM professionals in Indiana classrooms?

  31. We will split into six groups to brainstorm content that will inform IDOE’s priority areas and strategies Directions 1 • What are the major barriers to implementing STEM policy in Indiana? Find your group number on your name tent. Move to the chart paper with your group number on it. Identify a recorder (writer on the chart paper) Identify a reporter (person who will share out on behalf of the group) Discuss your question. 2 • How can we best engage business and industry STEM professionals in Indiana classrooms?
