摘要: This chapter adds to the body of research on engineering in early childhood education by describing multiple components associated with development an curriculum, Seeds STEM. Since very few studies were devoted topic childhood, STEM team was charged developing many tools and instruments be used throughout project. The describes conducted order establish framework for process, evaluation fidelity implementation, as well effectiveness curriculum. More specifically, addresses following questions curriculum research: (a) Who should part team? (b) What is a successful process? (c) principles guide units? (d) How curriculum’s measured? (e) measures taken ensure implementation?
