Afterschool Matters article image

*Grace, E., Kelton, M. L., Owen, J. P., Diaz Martinez, A., White, A. J., Danielson, R. W., Butterfield, P., *Fallon, M., & *Schafer, G. (2021). Using arts with STEM to foster systems thinking. Afterschool Matters, 34, 11 – 19.

In this article, we discuss an out-of-school time STEAM program titled
Zoom! that we designed and implemented in a summer camp in July 2019. Zoom! used visual arts strategies to support elementary-aged children in thinking about and communicating systems-level ideas related to the human microbiome. Delving into the Zoom! curriculum, we describe the practical framework used to integrate visual arts with human microbiome science and offer examples of three representative activities, along with participants’ artwork, that illustrate the potential for arts strategies to engage learners in systems thinking.

Saraniero, P. (August 2021). HEAL Design Lab Annual Evaluation Report

This program evaluation project focuses on the professional development arm of the intervention, the Design Lab, which began in July 2020 and ran to May 2021. The Design Lab began in the first months of the COVID-19 pandemic.
From July 2020 through May 2021 there were 24 virutal Design Lab sessions, each 90 minutes long, totaling 36 hours of professional learning. The Lab sessions included a variety of activities, including lectures, guest speakers, discussion, and visual art projects. The content was made up of science and visual art topics, including the fundamentals of viruses, visual literacy, cartography, systems thinking, and health equity.
