Descrizione del progetto
Una soluzione creativa per rompere le barriere delle discipline STEM
Nel vasto panorama dei settori delle discipline STEM, persiste un forte divario di genere che ostacola il pieno potenziale dei futuri innovatori europei, in particolare delle donne. Lo squilibrio si ripercuote a livello di confini, età e divisioni socioeconomiche, limitando l’accesso alle opportunità scientifiche e tecnologiche. In questo contesto, il progetto STEAMbrace, finanziato dall’UE, emerge come una forza pionieristica, pronta a rimodellare la narrativa dell'istruzione. Fondendo le discipline STEM con le arti, aspira a creare una solida alleanza europea, impiegando creatività e approcci basati sulle evidenze per promuovere una metodologia didattica STEAM sostenibile e inclusiva. Il modello multi-attore del progetto coinvolge le industrie culturali e creative, promuovendo ecosistemi di innovazione. Tra i risultati attesi figurano un polo di networking digitale, attività di formazione su misura, una settimana STEAM pilota a livello europeo e una tabella di marcia per la riproducibilità annuale.
Obiettivo
This project aims to bridge the current gender gap in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) fields by unlocking the potential of STEAM (STEM + Arts) education approach for future European innovators, especially women. Thus, this project will establish a coordination Alliance at European level and develop numerous networking and educational activities using a creative thinking and a scientific evidence-based approach. This will lead to broad, sustainable (environmental-responsible, social-inclusive & economically-balanced) and inclusive (gender, geodemographic and socioeconomic wide-ranging) STEAM education methodology that will positively influence in the transition towards a cultural and social cohesion of Europe.
This EU interdisciplinary consortium will follow a multi-actor approach where cultural and creative industries (CCIs) are drivers of the cultural and creative-driven innovation ecosystems, combined with validation with 11-18 years old students, that will allow to better understand the gaps and limitations of STEM education regarding country, age, gender and other socio-cultural aspects and boost the change towards a sustainable, reproducible & inclusive European STE(A)M education.
As a result, this CSA project will deliver a digital hub for participant networking (both students and stakeholders); missing information on STEAM level of implementation in Europe; numerous country-adapted training activities to boost integration of STEAM approaches in secondary and vocational training schools, with specific activities for young women and rural students; a pilot of the STEAM week at EU level and a roadmap for annual reproducibility; as well as follow-up training courses and guideline of minimum requirements for teachers and educational managers to ensure a STEAM education across Europe. Moreover, the project will extensively disseminate and communicate project’s events, results and findings, including the development of recommendations
