Taking a different approach to STEM education
The Yale SEAS CEID recently worked with colleagues at the Technion to run a teaching workshop that explores a new method for STEM education. The workshop made use of RoboPhysics, a program that
provides a hands-on way to teach AP physics by combining data acquisition software, a small robotic platform and Android phones. The Technion uses this method of education throughout Israel to
attract leading students to participate in the Technion.
Three students' teams at the CEID worked in real time with Ofer Danino and Dr. Gidon Kaplan who conducted the training from Haifa Israel. Working on site at the CEID were two Israeli team members, Moshe Lahav and Dr. Nira Krumholtz, head of the "IDEA Center,” the education developing arm of
Israeli company Phantom II Ltd. The Idea Center was established at the Technion and later affiliated to the Faculty of Engineering at Tel-Aviv University.
“I called SEAS Deputy Dean Vincent Wilczynski and suggested that we do the same thing at Yale University,” Lahav said. “I said ‘It will help you recruit students from all the schools in the United States.’ That led to the idea of running a workshop with our students in the CEID. That started with the corporation organizing a three-day workshop with the students.”
“The group at Technion has developed an innovative way to do hands-on, team-based open-ended problem solving to teach advanced physics topics,” said Wilczynski, director of the CEID. This, he said, makes it a great match for the CEID.
“The CEID is always on the lookout and excited about finding new ways to innovate and, in this case, new ways of learning,” he said, adding that the program involves sensors, computer science, AI,
team-based learning, and open-ended problem solving - all things the CEID is known for. “We welcomed this chance to partner with colleagues at Technion to investigate and see if there’s room for further collaboration.”
Krumholtz said that many students learn mathematics wondering how it has anything to do with real life. RoboPhysics shows them.
“It’s another way of learning other than listening to lectures,” she said. “It’s solving problems, running projects and finding solutions to situations, which is real life. In real life, you have a problem or a
situation that you try to find a solution to.”

Schools summer pilot scheme
An opportunity for forward thinking schools to run a pilot scheme this summer.
MeccaNote - STEAM Environment - Interactive Class Notebook
The implementation of the MeccaNote - As part of "Microsoft TEAMS" an interactive learning method is focused on the student and is based on the integration of the students in the transfer of the educational content as part of the learning activity.
Computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL). This process includes sharing, computer mediation and distance learning
