Blue Heron STEM Education provides an array of support for STEM projects, with special emphasis on K-8 curriculum and teacher professional development.
This session presents a comprehensive framework for the construct of research-based curricula, illustrated by studies from each of the 10 phases.
Government agencies and members of the educational research community have petitioned for research-based curricula. The ambiguity of the phrase “research-based,” however, undermines attempts to create a shared research foundation for the development of, and informed choices about, classroom curricula. This article presents a framework for the construct of research-based curricula.
Presenters will discuss the challenges and successes encountered in customizing inquiry science curricula according to the principles of universal design for learning (UDL) and in then enacting those Web-delivered curricula in secondary classrooms.

This group will continue to discuss issues related to the development, revision, distribution, and implementation of STEM curricula in the electronic age, and mapping future research in this area.
Presenters discuss how emerging technology and policy trends may shape the way science curriculum is developed and used in teaching and learning. Participant limit: 25
How should science curriculum developers respond to the changing technological landscape in school and out?
Session participants will explore and discuss a beta version of an interactive, Web-based, curricular environment designed to facilitate responsive teaching and students’ science inquiry.
The presenters of this session seek feedback on the design and feasibility of an interactive, Web-based curriculum environment that aims to support responsive teaching and elementary students' science inquiry. Session participants will explore and discuss a beta version of an interactive, Web-based, curriculum environment designed to facilitate responsive teaching and students’ science inquiry.
