- W2994489222 abstract "[ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] While some enjoy their summer vacations by spending time with family, playing tennis, and sleeping in, over 200 science, mathematics, and technology have participated in real-world industry experiences through the Industry--Education Partnership (IEP) program at Mississippi State University. Since 2005, IEP have traveled to the coastal city of Pascagoula, Mississippi, to intern at a shipbuilding facility for one week each summer. Through this experience, they obtain in-depth knowledge of what employers will require of their future workforce. Engaging in this type of informal learning provides with an opportunity to work outside the classroom, see industry advancements, and understand their students' academic needs. This article describes the IEP program at Mississippi State's Center for Science, Mathematics, and Technology (CSMT). Through this program, participating gain valuable industry experiences that translate into targeted lesson plans and activities for their classrooms. Industry--education partnerships As job markets and colleges become more challenging and competitive, K-12 science must prepare students for each new level of education and for careers in a variety of fields centered on science, mathematics, and technology. Gone are the days--if they ever truly existed--when could tell students they needed to learn certain content because they, or the school board, said so. Today, teaching requires that we find ways to connect content with real-world applications. One way to accomplish this is through industry--education partnerships. According to Darling-Hammond (1998, p. 8), teachers learn best by studying, doing, and reflecting; by collaborating with other teachers; by looking closely at students and their work; and by sharing what they see. Industry--education partnerships are important because they provide professional development experiences that allow to better understand the changing demands of the workplace. These experiences also provide with ideas for supplementing their lessons by integrating workplace skills that are often intriguing to their students (National Alliance of Business 1998). Professional development programs that transform real-world experiences into targeted lesson plans and hands-on activities are keys to teacher performance and effectiveness (Kennedy 2008). It is difficult to keep up with demands and advances in industry, and through no fault of their own, often do not realize the connections between the subject being taught and how it is used in the workforce. As an educator, would it not be helpful to learn how mathematics is used in the production of a U.S. Navy ship? How many understand the place of science and mathematics in a shipyard? Industry--education programs give educators the opportunity to answer these types of questions--and to develop lessons based on their experiences. Training and implementation Mississippi State's CSMT offers its IEP program--an annual teacher internship program--in partnership with Northrop Grumman Shipbuilding and other businesses. Programs like this have been in place at Mississippi State since 1996--the Learn to Work and Research Experiences in Industry programs paved the way for the current IEP program. Over the years, these programs have developed school--industry partnerships with Northrop Grumman, Columbus Air Force Base, the Tennessee Valley Authority, a local coal mine, an auto manufacturer, and others. At the Pascagoula shipbuilding site, surface ships for the U.S. Navy and the U.S. Coast Guard and other commercial vessels are designed and built. During our most recent IEP program, industry work was brought to life for participating teachers, who arrived at the shipyard at 6:45 a.m. each day to meet supervisors and trainers and receive their work assignments. …" @default.
