Is There Still a Future in STEM?

From STEM to STEAM and everything in-between. This in-depth presentation will explore a 70-year journey in the evolution of the STEM educational framework and methodology… and how various shortcomings in the ongoing development and execution of STEM curricula has led to a vast number of STEM derivatives over the years. Furthermore, the recent fragmentation of the STEM educational framework, and what that has meant to the educational sector will also be explored in depth.

从 STEM 到 STEAM 以及两者之间的一切。本讲座将深入探讨 STEM 教育框架和方法的 70 年演变历程……以及在 STEM 课程的持续开发和执行过程中存在的各种缺陷是如何导致多年来出现大量 STEM 衍生品的。此外，还将深入探讨最近 STEM 教育框架的分化，以及这对教育部门意味着什么。

So come and join us on this educational journey as we explore the very theory of knowledge as we deconstruct and challenge our own assumptions — as we evaluate and assess the very essence of our own beliefs… And then through an evidenced based exploration, develop upon our own understandings of STEM education. Come to a better understanding of the driving forces that brought forth the STEM movement in the first place, and what the aims and objectives for the development of STEM programs and curricula were meant to achieve. And from those understandings, we can then start to analyze our own educational practices to assess and evaluate our own instruction to determine if we are truly upholding the essence… the very philosophy… the educational principals that STEM education was founded on and meant to uphold.

因此，请加入我们的教育之旅，在我们探索知识理论的同时，解构和挑战我们自己的假设–在我们评估和评价我们自己信念的本质时……然后通过基于证据的探索，发展我们自己对 STEM 教育的理解。更好地理解最初引发 STEM 运动的驱动力，以及开发STEM 计划和课程的目的和目标。有了这些认识，我们就可以开始分析我们自己的教育实践，评估和评价我们自己的教学，以确定我们是否真正坚持了 STEM 教育的精髓……理念……教育原则，而这些正是 STEM 教育的基础和宗旨。
