Teacher Training on STEM Education

Rather than teach the four disciplines as separate and discrete subjects, STEM integrates them into a cohesive learning paradigm based on real-world applications.

Occupations in STEM-related careers are some of the fastest growing and best paid of the 21st century, and they often have the greatest potential for job growth.

OBJECTIVES

This course wants to:

Raise awareness on the importance on STEM Education discussing all its characteristics;
Explore and discover the benefits that the STEM Education can foster;
Help participants aknowledge all the different ways in which the STEM Education can be implemented in everyday learning;
Furnish easy and accessible tools to apply the STEM Education to revolutionize your current teaching strategy;
Create a cross-cultural exchange and understanding with local colleagues on the benefits that the STEM Education can give and the ways in which can be best applied.

METHODOLOGY

Our courses, developed in the framework established by the Erasmus+ Programme, are crafted to include both formal and non-formal education methodologies. Starting with a theoretical approach to the theme of the course, we proceed with non-formal learning strategies in order to guarantee and stimulate an active contribution from the participants involved. In practice, we use: Presentations; Analysis of study cases; Discussions in the classroom; Role-plays; Technical visits to local private and public institutions; Conferences with local professionals to exchange good practices; Job shadowing experiences; Workshops to rethink old practices and introduce new ones
