STEAM incorporates Art into STEM and is a movement widely adopted by institutions, corporations and individuals. But what exactly is STEAM? This session brought together faculty who considered the implications for curriculum, research, and pedagogy of adopting a STEAM stance.
This MST "open house" at Academic Festival included interactive activities and opportunities for play across several STEAM domains. Live demos, research exhibitions, math tools you can manipulate, and painting with virtual reality were just some of fun and exciting ways visitors experienced STEAM.
What are your wishes for STEAM education? What should STEAM be like? Visitors shared their vision for STEAM education on the STEAM Wish Tree designed and built by students in MST's Snow Day Learning Lab. You can also follow along on Twitter and share your wishes by tagging your tweets #STEAMWishTree.
