Introduction to STEAM Education
This course will provide educators with a strong foundation in STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics) Education, introducing students to each of the STEAM disciplines and their corresponding academic standards.
This course is one of four courses that was mutually developed by the Bucks IU and Delaware Valley University and comprise the Bucks IU's STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, mathematics) Approach to the PDE STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) Endorsement.
Participants will:
• develop an understanding of each letter of the STEAM acronym
• create and present a 'Fixer Upper' lesson by converting a traditional science, math, or art lesson into a STEAM lesson
• develop a lesson that includes integrated STEAM learning
