EDUCATOR’S GUIDE 2018 – 2019 2 What is STEM?

STEM education is an interdisciplinary approach to learning, combining multiple academic sub- jects, with a focus on the real world impact of these lessons. It is about students applying science, technology, engineering, and mathematics in relevant contexts that make connections for them between school, community, work, and the world around them. STEM education provides op- portunities to create skills that move students forward to become stronger problem solvers and more creative innovators who can lead tomorrow’s global economy.

What makes an activity STEM-focused? • Student-centered and teacher-guided • Engages students in investigating questions that impact real world problems • Inquiry-based learning • Hands-on activities • Reinforces 21st century skills

Orlando Science Center offers a wideSTEM array of STEM educational programs for students in pre- school – Grade 12. Additionally, thePROGRAMS Science Center offers educator professional development programs that help educators bring STEM topics to life for students both in the classroom and during field trips, leveraging exhibits and activities to better support their curriculum.

The Science Center believes that STEM education is essential for preparing future genera- tions with the skills needed to enter the workforce and pursue vital and lucrative careers. The Science Center views STEM as an interdisciplinary approach to learning that uses content knowledge to solve problems in a real-world setting. Students will grasp the importance of these skills and concepts because they will be presented in a forum that is relevant to them. This Educator Guide is a useful tool for planning a field trip experience to Or- lando Science Center or selecting an offsite program that can be delivered in a classroom or auditorium.

Our goal is always to provide meaningful experiences for you and your students. If you ever have any questions or need assistance selecting a program that best meets your educational objectives and budgetary needs, please contact us at 407-514-2112.

FROM THE MICR OBIAL TO THE MECHANICAL

Discover the living and human-made extensions that help us thrive, from the microbial to the mechanical. Our fall 2018 traveling exhibits go hand in hand to take you on a journey to explore the anatomy and technology that makes the human body so unique and mighty! Zoo In You introduces guests to the trillions of microbes living inside our bodies, while Human Plus explores the low-tech and high-tech tools that extend the abilities of the human body.

Did you know that your body is home to trillions and trillions of bacteria, viruses, fungi, and other microbes? With Zoo in You, you’ll learn about the complex world inside of the hu- man body. Find out who our diverse microbial inhabitants are, where they live, and how scientists are discovering just how important they are to our health.

Next, travel over to Human Plus, where cutting-edge science meets engineering! Discover the real-world impact of technol- ogy on enhancing human abilities. People who use these new technologies, such as neuroprosthetic limbs, wheelchairs, and vision enhancements, will captivate visitors as they share their stories. This unique field of engineering helps them carry out their day-to-day routines and pursue their lifelong dreams!

On your next visit to OSC, catch these two new exhibits and learn all about the body from protozoans to prosthetics!
