This website is developed as part of the STE(A)M IT project (http://www.eun.org/projects/detail?articleId=4657399). STE(A)M IT (“the Project”) is funded by the ERASMUS+ programme of the European Union and lasts for 36 months.

The role of European Schoolnet in the Project is to: (1) create and test of a conceptual framework of reference for integrated STE(A)M education; (2) develop a capacity building programme for primary schools teachers and secondary STEM teachers, based on this framework, with a particular focus on the contextualisation of STEM teaching, especially through industry-education cooperation, and (3) further ensure the contextualisation of the integrated STEM teaching by establishing a network of guidance counsellors/career advisors in schools promoting the attractiveness of STEM jobs to their classes.

This is done by the following activities:

  1. Organizing and coordinating and supporting a group of 11 User Group teachers for the creation of the first STE(A)M IT integrated learning scenarios
  2. Creating and maintaining the STE(A)M IT portal, place for exchange among stakeholders of the project
  3. Creating and updating the two MOOCs for primary and secondary school teachers on integrated STEM education
  4. Creating a set of tools (Guidelines on STEM jobs, STEM Jobs profiles, learning resources) to further ensure the contextualization of integrated STEM
