What is STE(A)M?
This is one of MANY Pinterest pages dedicated to show educators how to use arts integration and the arts to strengthen the STEM disciplines, student interest and shape America's students into innovative, creative, fun-loving leaders in a global economy. CHECK THIS OUT.
From STEM to STEAM (stemtosteam.org): Leonardo DaVinci was famously an engineer, architect, scientist and, of course, a painter. “Why choose just one?” asked Shirley Malcolm of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) in addressing participants at a national workshop RISD hosted on January 20 and 21. “Why was this artificial bifurcation made [between art and science] and how can we reconnect it?” Sponsored by the National Science Foundation (NSF), Bridging STEM to STEAM: Developing New Frameworks for Art-Science-Design Pedagogy looked at ways educators and policymakers can begin to bridge this gap. In particular, the goal of this gathering of minds was to develop strategies to enhance STEM [Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math] education by integrating art and design – transforming STEM into STEAM and promoting the intellectual and creative potentials in the process.
Check out this screenshot that shows HOW to put the A into STEM with real-life, teacher-tested, student approved projects. If you think these are intriguing, there are even more.
