STEM vs STEAM
STEAM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics. There is only one letter between STEM and STEAM education but it makes a world of difference. With the inclusion of arts STEAM learning opens up education more to include areas, such as Design, English Literature, Fine Art and drama.
The term STEAM serves the dual purpose of equipping learners with important skills like creativity and creative problem-solving, which Lego Education can support with, while still building skills in the tradition STEM subjects of Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths. A STEAM education comes with all the advantages of STEM but with added benefits such as teamwork, empath, creativity, and imagination.
