STEAM education combines the disciplines of Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics, taking a learner-led approach to teaching and learning where learners develop a range of skills and life skills, knowledge, and positive attitudes towards STEAM.
The Full STEAM Ahead! partnership programme has developed learning resources for STEAM in a Youthreach specific setting, allowing learners to cut across STEAM disciplines through exploration of real-world situations with links to three or more disciplines from Science, Technology, Engineering Arts and Mathematics.
Developed by the National Youth Council of Ireland (NYCI) and DCU's Centre for Advancement of STEM Teaching and Learning (CASTeL) and designed for use in Youthreach settings. These resources will include module descriptors, session plans, and additional materials for the subject areas.
