Why STEAM?

STEAM VS STEM

Research shows that STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, Math) positively impacts student achievement and teacher efficacy. STEAM takes STEM to the next level: it allows students to connect their learning in these critical areas together with arts practices, elements, design principles, and standards to provide the whole pallet of learning at their disposal. It removes limitations and replaces them with wonder, critique, inquiry, and innovation.
