Description

This course is designed to provide educators with the knowledge and skills to integrate STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics) concepts into their classroom instruction. The course will cover the fundamental principles of each discipline and explore ways to connect them in real-world, hands-on activities. Topics will include project-based learning, problem-solving, and the use of technology and digital tools to enhance student engagement and understanding. Additionally, the course will focus on how to effectively assess student learning and progress in a STEAM context. The course is required for teacher candidates of PK-5, but also open to all education majors. This course will be taught through a combination of lectures, discussions, and hands-on activities.
