Flowers, Jim – Technology and Engineering Teacher, 2019
As a resource for manufacturing and construction, wood has much to offer: it is renewable, beautiful, locally obtainable, and rather easy to machine. In addition to building products out of wood, wood can be scientifically studied in the classroom and lab. In the age of STEM integration, technology and engineering teachers can teach wood science,…

Diego-Mantecón, José Manuel; Haro, Elena; Blanco, Teresa F.; Romo-Vázquez, Avenilde – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2021
The competency-based approach conceives mathematics as a necessary tool for dealing with daily-life tasks. Many studies have focused on examining the low math competency people show when solving problems in real-life contexts, but rarely characterize the type of mathematics needed in these contexts and how people use this mathematics. The current…
