Abstract
Science teachers have been finding it difficult to truly apply the concept of integrating science, technology, engineering and mathematics when teaching the individual disciplines for which they have been certified. Students have not been able to see the unity that exists in STEM. This poster uses a human arm to demonstrate how teaching science can vividly expose the concepts of mathematics, engineering and technology. This demonstrates an inspired and motivated unit on teaching human biology which leads to understanding the relationship of science, technology, engineering, and mathematical concepts.
