Description: (Note: Adobe Acrobat Reader is required to view these files.) [b]Volume XI, Number 1[/b] Publication Link: http://www.diimsa.com/mechinst/MechanismsInstructionalVXIN1.pdf [b] Exploring the Grand Canyon, the DIIMSA Way:[/b] During a recent conversation with an IT consultant, he encountered someone that thought she had high capacity, but could not understand difficult questions given a problem with a set of circumstances. When there was a problem, she would claim she did not understand. She would not listen to suggestions and eventually failed during a key part of a large conversion project. My colleague later determined that she was really far behind in STEM integration, irrational and could not think critically nor be rational about problems. Now you are probably saying what does this have to do with mechanisms and STEM education? Basically everything. If individuals cannot be rational, think critically and understand difficult questions given a dynamic set of circumstances, then there are only so many roles they can play in today�s technologically advanced society. In this issue, we review a DIIMSA �Grand Canyon� research excursion and a link to a unique questioning strategy leading to ways to create critical and rational mindsets.
