STEAM TRAINING FOR ERASMUS+ for teachers
STEAM Courses for teachers DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
Recent research has illuminated a compelling reality: a staggering 85% of the professions expected to emerge by 2030 are yet to be invented, and the majority of them will be closely intertwined with STEAM disciplines. Beyond merely encouraging students to participate in reshaping the world, STEAM education adds a layer of personalization, excitement, creativity, and innovation to the learning process.
STEAM represents a comprehensive curriculum that integrates Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics, uniting these diverse fields through a practical, interdisciplinary approach to education. In line with this approach, our course not only delves into the theoretical underpinnings of STEAM but also equips educators with the tools and strategies to effectively integrate STEAM principles into their classrooms.
Here’s a glimpse of what you’ll explore in this course:
- Holistic Learning: Experience the transformational power of interdisciplinary education, where students are challenged to think beyond traditional subject boundaries.
- Real-World Applications: Discover a treasure trove of teaching resources and activities grounded in real-world contexts, ensuring that learning is meaningful and relevant.
- Technology Integration: Leverage the latest Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) to enhance STEAM education and prepare students for the tech-driven world.
- Project-Based Learning: Embrace project-based learning approaches that empower students to actively engage, inquire, and collaborate in solving complex problems.
By the end of this course, you’ll be well-prepared to inspire your students to take thoughtful risks, persevere through problem-solving, embark on inquiry-based journeys, value teamwork, and actively participate in the creative process. These skills are the cornerstone of tomorrow’s innovators, leaders, and mentors.
Join us on this transformative journey as we equip you to lead the way in nurturing the next generation of STEAM-ready learners and innovators.
