Description
Skills of STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics) are becoming increasingly important parts of today’s society. STEAM-related careers are some of the fastest growing and best paid of the 21st century, and they often have the greatest potential for job growth.Creating a solid STEAM foundation through an integrated curriculum is the best way to ensure that students are exposed to science, technology, engineering, arts and maths throughout their educational career. It is also important for educators to have a skill set that allows them to inform students about STEAM career prospects, motivate them and support them.The 5 days training course will focus on enriching the STEAM curriculum through innovative activities for students, available learning and teaching resources as well as enriching educator’s skills in engaging and motivating their students. The course will also explore the need to involve the local community and organisations.The course is ideal for educators who teach STEAM and want to further enrich their lessons. The training could be adapted for beginners who would like to implement the STEAM curriculum in their schools. The daily programme can be found here.

Methodology & assessment
The methodology of the training course includes a learner-centred approach and a focus on enhancing continuous personal development. The aim of the training is not to produce ready-made solutions (passive learning), but to inspire the participants to search creatively for knowledge and effective solutions, which are connected to their needs and challenges (active learning). In this way, the participants take responsibility for their own learning process and act as active partners in the training.
Attention will be given to how to implement the findings and skills in real daily working situations after the training course. Methods such as debate, pair and group work, and individual practical exercises will be used throughout the course.
Assessment of the course combines formal and non-formal assessment methods such as self-evaluation at the end of the course and formal evaluation forms provided by the organisation.
