- LEARNING SCENARIOS
- STORIES OF IMPLEMENTATIONWelcome to the STE(A)M IT Community for the exchange of practices based on STEAM approaches! On this section, you can find the Stories of Implementation (SoI) provided by the Pilot Leading teachers. The teams of teachers implemented the integrated STE(A)M learning scenario (LS) of their choice, created by another team and are now sharing their impressions and experiences with us. The learning scenarios are connected to STEM career profiles available on the Repository of STEM jobs profiles. Whether you are part of the teachers’ community or of the network of career advisers, your comments and inputs are always welcome and valuable! Don’t hesitate to check and comment on the Stories of Implementation and continue the dialogue.

Impacting policy makers, teachers, school leaders, career advisors and industry, the Erasmus+ STE(A)M IT project aims to strengthen the educational landscape by promoting innovative and cross-disciplinary approaches to STE(A)M teaching in education. The outcomes to promote innovative integrated STE(A)M practices at school level include:

Developing and testing the 1st European integrated STE(A)M reference framework for policy makers and schools

Providing training courses for primary and secondary school teachers and setting-up a network of career advisors at EU level

Providing tools and guidelines for teachers and career advisors to help them promote current and future STEM jobs

WHY STE(A)M IT?

Today, in general in Europe, in secondary education, STEM disciplines continue to be taught in an isolated way. There are no STEM classes, in general, there are S classes, T classes, E classes, M classes. And not even the S is “one”. There are Physics classes, Chemistry classes, Biology classes, etc.

In order to really get students to see the interest of STEM degrees and careers, and even more importantly, show students, and society at large, the key role that STEM plays in improving our lives and their need for our future, we need STEM to be taught in an integrated way.

We need all the components of S to work together. All the letters in STEM to work together. And even better, for all the subjects to work together STE(A)M. We need to apply measures to teach the different disciplines in an integrated way, connected to real-life issues. We need “to steam education”. If we “STE(A)M IT”, we can ensure future citizens will be ready to tackle any issues in society, in a collaborative, critical and efficient way.

STEM JOBS PROFILES

As teachers or career advisors, you play a crucial role in the career development of students. To help you make STEM careers more appealing to young people, we have put together a repository of STEM jobs, including materials and career sheets to use with your students. This section of the STE(A)M IT website is regularly updated. So stay posted to discover inspiring STEM jobs profiles!
