![]() And if we look at the core of it, we will realize that the involvement of arts in STEM is pretty much inevitable. How? Well, because, STEM enthusiasts already support the contribution of Arts in STEM education. We live in a world that is used to labels, and STEAM, to a certain extent is also a label. It also includes examples of important personalities like Steve Jobs, Albert Einstein, and Marissa Mayer. This infographic was illustrated by Edudemicin July 2014. They also state that students that studied music appreciation scored 61 points higher on the verbal section and 42 points higher on the math section. They established that students that studied the arts for four years in high school scored 98 points higher on the SATs than the students that only studied arts for a year or lesser than that. ![]() University of Florida built an infographic so as to identify the role of arts in education. While reviewing STEAM, The Conversation states in their blog that the objectives of the STEAM movement are to place and integrate Art and Design at the centre of STEM, along with the objective to encourage employers to hire artists and designers to shape the innovation with which technology works. STEAM is a well-established movement by Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) and has been since been endorsed by various institutions, corporations, and individuals. Hence, STEAM has never really been a separate entity. However, practically, we see as much art in STEM as we do in our individual lives. One focuses on teaching scientific concepts through, and the other focuses on doing the same by using inquiry and problem-based learning methods applied during the creative process. Theoretically, there is a very clear distinction between STEM and STEAM. The arts in STEAM represents language, arts, drama, visual design, music, dance, and media. Ideas stem from the mind and so does art. Down to the bone, as some say, it’s an idea. So why not an advanced learning technique like STEM? People share art all over the world on the web and the web is a technology. Art is in every corner if one chooses to see it. ![]() The journey from STEM to STEAM is not quite as long as one might think. You know how sometimes while cooking, your mother alters some details about a particular dish that you really like and the alteration makes the dish even more delicious? That’s what STEAM is for a lot of teachers and technology enthusiasts. Let’s talk about how much capacity STEM has for art and productivity let’s talk about STEAM. Have you ever heard or thought of how science and arts could go hand in hand? An amalgamation of design, creativity, science, and mathematics? We’ve talked about STEM now let’s talk about the realms that give STEM a ground to expand. Journal Of STEM Education: Innovations & Research, 15(1), 5. Advancing the State of the Art of STEM Integration. More specifically, STEM integration refers to students participating in engineering design as a means to develop relevant technologies that require meaningful learning through integration and application of mathematics and/or science. Integrated STEM education is an effort to combine the four disciplines of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics into one class, unit, or lesson that is based on connections among these disciplines and real-world problems.
