PY - 2021 DA - 2021/01/13 TI - Understanding coherence and integration in integrated STEM curriculum JO - International Journal of STEM Education SP - 2 VL - 8 IS - 1 AB - Few tools or rubrics exist to assess the quality of integrated STEM curricula, and existing tools focus on checklists of characteristics of integrated STEM. While such instruments provide important information about the presence and quality of certain curricular components, they do not assess the level and nature of integration of the curriculum as a whole. Thus, this study explores the development of a process focused to understand the nature of integration within a STEM curriculum unit.
