What is STEM?
T Technology
STEM is an acronym that stands for
4 education disciplines:
E Engineering

M Mathematics
With the inclusion of Arts, you may also see the acronym

S T E A M
These disciplines are increasingly emphasized within the education system to get
students interested in higher education classes and careers that involve STEAM
skills and knowledge.
Why Study STEAM?

SCIENCE
Fields within science allow us to explore and
understand the world around us through
experimentation and research. It’s about discovery and
possibility.
Why Study STEAM?

TECHNOLOGY
Almost any field you study will involve technology. It
is constantly advancing, so there is always something
new to learn. It has allowed us to connect with the
world and access more information than ever before.
Why Study STEAM?

ENGINEERING
Engineers push the boundaries of science and solve
technical problems. They enable everything from
building structures to bioengineering to computer
software. Innovation in this field plays a significant
role in shaping our future.
Why Study STEAM?

ART
Art allows for creative expression through a variety of
mediums. Students learn to construct, create, and
describe different aesthetics. We can understand more
about our culture and history through art.
Why Study STEAM?

MATHEMATICS
Math is the study of numbers, shapes, and logic. We
use it every day, even in simple tasks, such as baking. It
helps us understand patterns and analyze data.

Benefits of STEAM Education
Critical Thinking Creativity

Confidence Collaboration/Teamwork

Curiosity Innovation
Critical Thinking
Critical thinking allows students to observe,
analyze, and understand when trying to solve
complex problems. Using credible information and
finding evidence to support arguments is imperative
to learning and gaining knowledge.
Confidence
It’s great when everything goes right on the first try,
but that is often not the case. Students should
understand that failure is often a part of learning. To
persevere through challenges brings better
understanding, a sense of achievement, and
confidence.
Curiosity
Curiosity involves asking questions and
brainstorming different ideas to solve problems. It
also inspires wonder, exploration, and imagination.
Creativity
Imagination and creative thinking are key to finding
new ways to solve problems. Creativity allows
students to break down a complex issue into
smaller, more manageable tasks.
Collaboration/Teamwork
Working with others allows us to combine our
knowledge and get immediate feedback to our
ideas. We develop communication skills by
working in groups toward a common goal.
Collaboration also fosters discussion and team
encouragement.
Innovation
Using experimentation, students can develop new
ways of observing, analyzing, and solving complex
problems. Innovation allows us to adapt to
challenges and gain new insights.
