The program was part of the annual Watts Bears summer school. The Watts Bears are group of student football and track athletes coached by the Los Angeles Police Department. Working in conjunction with the Watts officers and coaches, Peace Guardians and guest teachers spent four hours a day with the students facilitating mindfulness exercises and the Haka as wellness tools to incorporate into their lives in and out of the classroom and football field. The use of the Ancient Maori practice in modern day contexts serves as a fusion of cultural storytelling and with modern interpretations. The Watts Bears students mapped out their own Haka to be performed before Games.","PeriodicalId":438783,"journal":{"name":"The STEAM Journal","volume":"194 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116524211","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This growing field has many natural overlaps between the different disciplines within STEAM. There are many fascinating stories surrounding biomimicry connecting nature to simple solutions for many of our most difficult problems, especially related to the sustainability of our planet. Biomimicry cannot but help capture the imagination of our students. Author/Artist Bio Steve Pauls holds a joint position between Fresno Pacific University and the AIMS Center for Math and Science. Over the years he has taught a wide variety of courses in science and mathematics both in the traditional Undergraduate Program and the STEM and Mathematics Educational Graduate Program at FPU. For the AIMS Center Steve is a senior science researcher and is concentrating on the cognitive processes of learning focused specifically on visuospatial learning in K-12 education. Steve continue to research new ways of integrating cross-disciplinary topics and pedological methods into the classroom. He also has an interest in woodworking, ceramics, cartooning, and integrating microcircuit/sensor technology into the STEAM curriculum.

By drawing on John Dewey’s philosophy of aesthetic experience and by exploring a simple mathematical problem (Is the graph of a given function increasing at a given point?), I argue that STEM education already has an aesthetic dimension inherent within it. Furthermore, I argue that by recognizing this dimension of STEM curricula, STEM teachers will more easily be able to facilitate aesthetic experiences for their students.

Author/Artist Bio I am 6 years old and have loved frogs as long as I can remember. When I heard that some of the frog species were on verge of extinction from pollution, pesticides, and habitat destruction I wanted to help. I learned of a non-profit organization just as passionate as me called Save the Frogs. They work to protect frog populations by educating, inspiring, and empowering people around the world to make a positive impact for amphibians and the planet. Save the Frogs had a lot of knowledge about the specific frogs and locations that needed help but they needed funding to accomplish more goals. I created a campaign called Justin’s Save the Frogs Project in May of 2017. My plan was to sell $1.00 toy frogs and raise $1,000 to build new wetlands in California to protect the CA Red-Legged Frogs. I began to take action by selling the toy frogs everywhere I went such as baseball practice, birthday parties, door-to-door to my neighbors, after school camps, to my classmates, and to anyone that would listen. A Save the Frogs Project donation website page was also made for me so more people around the world could donate to his cause. My favorite part of my project is that I created my own frog shoes to spread the awareness to my peers and those around me. I teamed up with Go PLAE shoe company to reach my second goal to raise $1,000. For every purchase of shoes using my PLAE-it-Forward Codea percentage of the purchase will go to my project. I’ve taken greater action by presenting my project at bookstores, my school, for social media viewers, and have events lined up with Galileo Science Camps, Jane Goodall’s Roots and Shoots program, and Bravery Magazine in the upcoming month. The money I earn from my Go PLAE shoes ambassador role will be used to sponsor a Save the Frogs Art Contest to spread awareness about frogs and the environment.","PeriodicalId":438783,"journal":{"name":"The STEAM Journal","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128130981","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
