The ADAPTATIONS blog advances research toward and replication of what works in the STEM education of preservice teachers in high-need school districts through programs’ sharing of evidence-based innovations to encourage adaption by other programs and move forward collective evolution of effective STEM teacher preparation.

Teaching the Teacher: Social Justice, Equity, and the Future of Science

January 18, 2023 by Betty Calinger

As we reflect on the past three years that embroiled Americans in a pandemic, which highlighted educational inequities and social justice issues, two looming questions arise. How will we utilize the lessons learned and our new awareness of individual and communal perseverance and resilience? Will we employ these lessons and new awareness to frame and […]

Let’s Stop Saying that Math is the Universal Language

December 13, 2022 by Betty Calinger

Every math and science teacher of a certain age has seen it, probably multiple times. Many of us have shown it in our classes. It’s the scene from the movie Contact (Zemeckis, 1997) where the character played by Jodie Foster first hears from the aliens. It’s exciting, dramatic—the pulsing noise from space pushing through the […]

Productive Struggle: An Opportunity for In-Depth Mathematics Learning

November 9, 2022 by Betty Calinger

Struggle is a regular part of mathematics class: students struggle to get started, to carry out a process, to express misconceptions and errors, and with “uncertainty in explaining and sense-making” (Warshauer, 2015, p. 385). We have been investigating the struggles of prospective mathematics teachers (PTs) in a middle school methods course (Kamlue & Van Zoest, […]

Wherefore Art Thou, Physics Teacher?

October 19, 2022 by Betty Calinger

Although it is perhaps a bit peculiar to apply Shakespeare to physics teaching career contemplations, the notoriously misinterpreted question of “Wherefore art thou?” begs us to look for answers in our students. We believe it is vital to scrutinize the “wherefores” of successful physics teachers, in both the classic meaning (why teach physics?) and the […]

Engineering Education for Autistic Children: Content, Pedagogy, and Assessment

September 19, 2022 by Betty Calinger

Engineering learning is a lifelong process that starts from a very young age as children discover the world through tinkering, touching, and being curious. Some refer to children as natural engineers (Dorie et al., 2014; Genalo et al., 2000). Young children naturally and informally engage in engineering-related behaviors and activities (Petroski, 2003). However, at the […]
