Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.

STEAM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Maths.

STEAM learning is a philosophy of education that embraces teaching skills in a way that resembles real life.

STEAM is a hot topic as it's an integrated approach to learning that develops critical thinking and encourages kids to think more broadly about real-world problems with a hands-on approach.

The key component of STEAM is integration. So instead of teaching disciplines in independent silos there is a focus on interdisciplinary learning, which aligns with the way we work, and problem solve in our daily lives.

Jobs in the real world are interdisciplinary. Educating children in how these subjects integrate and work together is crucial.

It’s important for children to develop a diverse skill set, a sense of curiosity and a passion for exploration.

Introducing STEAM to kids from a young age, cultivates collaborative exploration and problem solving.

Problem-based-learning-through-play is hands down the best way to get kids excited about STEAM.

Each of the STEAM elements share a common approach, they require gathering information to create knowledge or solve problems.

STEAM-learning inspires kids to:

• Ask Questions
• Make Connections
• Problem Solve
• Think Creatively
• Be Innovative
