Session Format
Conference Session (20 minutes)

Abstract for the conference program
We frequently talk about the need for more interdisciplinary teaching and authentic learning experiences, however, navigating the processes of building interdisciplinary approaches and partnerships can be daunting, especially for new teachers. This session will provide research and experience based background on outreach, connections, and creating professional learning communities for STEM interdisciplinary learning that can be used for formal and informal partnership building to connect STEM teachers, students, and practitioners. The audience is both classroom teachers in science and math as well as university professors and other researchers who are interested in working with teachers.
