Abstract:
The development of technologies needs well-trained STEM professionals. The transition to quality STEM education requires collaboration among STEM teachers, education researchers, policymakers, and other educational stakeholders. Creating communities for STEM education and supporting STEM teachers in Europe are the main goals of the Scientix project. Since 2021 Scientix maintains the activities of the STEM School Label project. The STEM School Label platform supports schools in developing successful STEM strategies. The Future Classroom Lab is a fully equipped, reconfigurable, teaching and learning environment located in Brussels. Мany European teachers were inspired to retool their classrooms and change their teaching approaches after their visit in the Future Classroom Lab. The article introduces the two platforms of Scientix, STEM School Label, the main ideas of Future Classroom Lab, and part of the Bulgarian contribution to the development of the STEAM education.
Description:
Развитието на технологиите се нуждае от добре обучени STEM специалисти. Преходът към качествено STEM образование изисква сътрудничество между STEM учители, изследователи в областта на образованието, политици и други заинтересовани страни в образованието. Създаването на общности за STEM образование и подкрепата на STEM учителите в Европа са сред основните цели на проекта Scientix. От 2021 г. Scientix поддържа дейностите по проекта STEM School Label. Платформата STEM School Label подкрепя училищата в разработването на успешни STEM стратегии. Future Classroom Lab е напълно оборудвана, преконфигурируема среда за преподаване и учене, разположена в Брюксел. Много европейски учители след посещението си във Future Classroom Lab са били вдъхновени да обновят своите класни стаи и да променят подходите си на преподаване. Статията представя двете платформи Scientix и STEM School Label, основните идеи на Future Classroom Lab, както и част от българския принос в развитието на STEAM образованието.
