Interdisciplinary STEM Education: Evaluating Education Models, Tools, Thought Processes and Software

In this paper, we examine several different articles in the field of education, specifically mathematical and STEM education, and how different innovations can affect the job of teaching. Critical thinking and problem-based learning are methods that can help strengthen the minds of students, and ADDIE is a thought process that teachers and educators can use to create worksheets that benefit their students better. LaTeX is a typesetting system that can be used to create printable PDF worksheets quicker, and template math problem generators can be used to create unique worksheets for each student. In this paper, we evaluate the impact that each innovation has, or possibly could have, and we look forward to what future research and innovation needs to be done to help teachers give better lessons, and help each student learn better.
