    Series 8 Episode 3: 10 Graduate and Doctoral Research Topics in STEM for 2026 (Topics 5 & 6 of 10 key research areas) - In the third episode of 2026 we continue exploring the most important educational research topics in STEM & STEAM graduate and doctoral students might want to consider in 2026. In this episode we explore educational research topics in STEM related the need to more fully understand the diverse cultural taxonomies for learning and design in STEAM lessons for K-12 students. This includes STEAM studies related to indigenous and linguistically diverse populations. Other case or meta analysis needed in the areas of gender, exceptionality and socioeconomically vulnerable populations of learners. The sixth research topic relates to updating how microbiology and body systems/health education might be taught in STEAM in order to address student/family health gaps and misconceptions that have emerged since the recent global pandemic. The introduction of early microscopes and other body/health information for learners is discussed within the field of educational research in STEAM as well in the United States and Canada where preventable childhood illnesses are on the rise.

    Series 8 Episode 2: 10 Graduate and Doctoral Research Topics in STEM for 2026 (Topics 3 & 4 of 10 key research areas) - In the second episode of 2026 we continue exploring the most important educational research topics in STEM & STEAM graduate and doctoral students might want to consider in 2026. In the second episode we explore educational research topics in STEM related the need to more fully understand the developmental taxonomy of children’s conceptions and misconceptions of STEAM based on theoretical model analysis and assessment design. The fourth educational research topic relates to how the use of educational AI tools and softwares impacts K-12 learners concepts of STEM and proposes a series of experimental research projects combining the use of educational AI that includes children’s direct observation of natural phenomenon and real world problem solving and engineering design.

    Series 8 Episode 1: 10 Graduate and Doctoral Research Topics in STEM for 2026 (Topics 1 & 2 of 10 key research areas) - In the first episode of 2026 we explore the most important educational research topics in STEM & STEAM graduate and doctoral students might want to consider in 2026. In the first episode we explore educational research topics in STEM related the need to understand rapidly changing educational policies related to the STEM fields and education in Mexico, the United States and Canada as large scale quantitative educational studies. The second of ten research topics in STEAM education explores the need to better understand how the changing STEM curriculum might be more effectively aligned with diverse communities based on cultural demographics, diverse geographies and economic differences as more localized case studies.
