In November I was asked by the NSTA to write an article about the role creativity plays in STEM education and how STEM education is developing in Japan based on a recent visit to work with Dr. Yoshisuke Kumano at Shizuoka University. The article was published on page 3 of the February 2019 NSTA reports in the author commentary section. I'll include a copy of the NSTA report here for reading. Enjoy!

I had the privilege to be interviewed by NSTA Reports Associate Editor Debra Shapiro as part of her November 2018, article, "Helping students develop perseverance." Perseverance is an integral part of STEM learning where students learn to develop a growth mindset and grit through working to solve engineering challenges, investigate their own questions or dive into complex non-fiction text. You can read the article here:

Research on Owatonna Middle School and Shizuoka Middle School students' perceptions of discussion and arguing with evidence in STEM teaching was awarded Outstanding Research Presentation at the Japanese Society of Science Education conference in Tokyo, Japan in August 2018!
I'm very honored to be part of this work and collaboration with Takahiro Kayano to build a partnership between our schools.
Japan Science Education Association annual announcement of Research Presentation Award to Masahiso Sato
(Masahiso Sato visited Owatonna schools, along with several other education researchers from Japan from 2016-18. Sato-san and I, along with several authors, are writing a paper on ESTEM education in Japan and the United States.)
Theoretical practical research on construction of next generation stem education in Japan and America "A work of environmental stem ( E-STEM ) Education in Owatonna, Minnesota" has received an award for annual presentation (信州大学).
This announcement is a regional study in the United States of Minnesota for e-Stem Education. E-stem education associated with next-Generation Science Standard (Ngss) and National Environmental Education Standard.
In this announcement, I captured ▶︎ stem education as " scientific method × technology conjugation x engineering design process × Mathematical reasons and environmental conservation and multicultural coexistence in the poverty district of the area. This is an idea of a efforts to deepen intercultural communication. ▶︎ beyond the context of traditional science education, argumentation and learning deepening as team learning, and in the area, to be able to contribute to social the, social the and multicultural symbiosis.
