The STEAM Innovation Ecosystem project aims to transform education by integrating Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM) in creative and culturally relevant ways. Targeting students in Greece, Portugal, Cyprus, and Italy, the project blends scientific inquiry with artistic expression and cultural heritage to better prepare learners for the dynamic demands of the modern workforce, particularly in STEM fields.
Key Objectives:
- Develop an inclusive, interdisciplinary STEAM educational framework.
- Bridge the gap between traditional education and evolving job market needs.
- Foster creativity, critical thinking, and entrepreneurial mindsets among students.
- Promote context-sensitive learning by aligning activities with local cultural strengths.
Project Structure:
- WP1: Project management and coordination.
- WP2: Development of the core STEAM framework and stakeholder engagement.
- WP3: Implementation of creative learning activities (e.g., makerspaces, theatrical science, music-integrated STEM).
- WP4: Synthesis of best practices and policy recommendations.
- WP5: Dissemination and impact at national and EU levels.
The project aspires to nurture a new generation of innovative, scientifically literate, and culturally grounded learners, capable of addressing future challenges with confidence and creativity.
