LearnSTEM: Innovative Model of learning STEM in secondary schools

The partners of Yusuf Demir Bilim ve Sanat Merkezi created a Noticeboard of the LearnSTEM project. You can see the partners, the aims of the project and facts about STEM. Have a look!

🚀 Sweden’s Government is set to launch a new STEM strategy by the end of 2024, aiming to boost the number of individuals with strong skills in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). This move aligns with broader European efforts to strengthen STEM education and innovation, crucial for competing globally in technology-driven fields. The strategy will focus on enhancing STEM education from preschool to university, with a special emphasis on improving maths and increasing female participation. 💡

By collaborating with businesses and stakeholders, Sweden’s approach mirrors the EU’s focus on nurturing digital skills and STEM expertise to drive sustainable growth and innovation across the continent. Higher education institutions are also contributing insights to ensure more students pursue and complete STEM programs, ensuring Sweden stays competitive within the European innovation landscape. 🌍

We are thrilled to announce that the LearnSTEM project has reached a significant milestone—the creation of our learning platform is well underway and will soon be online!

This platform will serve as a comprehensive resource for students and educators, offering engaging learning units on critical topics such as climate, pollution, nature, and recycling. These units are designed to foster a deeper understanding of environmental issues and inspire action toward a sustainable future.

While the platform is still in progress, we’re excited to share that it will soon be ready for use. Stay tuned for the official launch, and get ready to explore the world of STEM through the lens of environmental science!

Integrating STEM education in schools is essential for addressing climate change. By equipping students with strong skills in science, technology, engineering, and maths, we empower the next generation to develop innovative solutions to environmental challenges. Through hands-on projects and real-world problem-solving, students can learn how to mitigate climate impacts and create a sustainable future. Investing in STEM education is not just about preparing students for the workforce; it’s about equipping them to protect our planet.

Nature is a classroom waiting to be explored!

• Become a Nature Detective: Discover science secrets in pinecones and build whirlybirds.
• Math in the Meadow: Count flower petals, create patterns, and estimate tree heights.
• The Bug Builders: Study spider webs and design mini bridges inspired by nature.

Develop STEM skills, foster a love for nature, and become an environmental steward.

The partners of LearnSTEM have met in Potenza, Italy, on the premises of EURO-NET on the 26th of June 2024. They have come together to talk about the LearnSTEM Learning Environment. It has been a fruitful meeting – so stay tuned as we are about to share a link to the LearnSTEM Learning Environment soon!

Integrating STEM into education is crucial for fostering innovation and problem-solving skills. By teaching students about science, technology, engineering, and maths, and also combine these subjects within lessons, we empower them to tackle complex issues like pollution head-on. Through STEM education, we can inspire the next generation of innovators to develop sustainable solutions for a cleaner, healthier planet.

In the realm of sustainability, STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) fields play a vital role in shaping our approach towards recycling. From developing innovative materials to designing efficient waste management systems, STEM disciplines offer solutions that pave the way towards a greener, cleaner future.

Education in STEM fosters a mindset of curiosity, problem-solving, and critical thinking, essential traits for addressing complex environmental challenges like recycling. By inspiring future generations to pursue STEM fields, we empower them to become the innovators and changemakers driving environmental sustainability forward.

The short video platform TikTok has introduced a STEM feed with videos on various topics from the STEM fields. The platform wants to improve its image and also show educational videos.
