What is STEAM education?

STEAM education is a comprehensive education that integrates science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics.

STEAM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics.

STEAM is an educational concept that is different from the traditional single-subject education method that emphasizes book knowledge.

STEAM is a transdisciplinary education concept that emphasizes practice.

The success of anything does not only rely on the realization of a certain ability, but requires a combination of multiple abilities.

For example, the construction process of high-tech electronic products requires not only science and technology, the use of high-tech means to innovate product functions, but also good-looking appearance, that is, comprehensive talents in art and other aspects. Therefore, the use of a single skill can no longer support the development of future talents.

, in the future, what we need is multi-faceted comprehensive talents.

Thus exploring the STEAM education concept.

Extended information: The STEAM education concept was first proposed by the U.S. government as an educational initiative to strengthen K12 education in science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics in the United States.

Encourage children's development and improvement in the fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics, and cultivate children's comprehensive literacy, thereby enhancing their global competitiveness.

STEAM education is as important in the United States as quality education in China. Most primary and secondary schools in the United States have funding for STEAM education, and STEAM is often mentioned by teachers, principals, and educators.

Under the call of STEAM education, robots and 3D printers have entered schools.
