STEM vs STEAM
Everybody knows about STEM science programs. Recently the new acronym appeared and became popular among science teachers, S.T.E.A.M - Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics! The art component is wisely integrated into this event because of the budget cuts and as a result of that students' creativity is neglected!
Mount Saint Mary College will be hosting a STEAM program on March 17th thanks to the efforts and resources of the CARD Center under the leadership of Dr. Fran Spielhagen, who shares sponsorship of the event with the KDP chapter. My science methods classes will join the program. The organizing committee proposed a STEAM station template and invited teacher candidates to submit proposals with 30-minute lessons. Ten (10) stations were approved for the event! Some of them will involve the use iPads, drones, 3D printer, and a few stations will do natural science projects and math! All of the stations will require creating final projects with the art component. I contacted Goshen LEGO LAND office and they promised to donate an architectural LEGO set as a prize! My colleague Dr. Sonya Abbye-Taylor contacted Mad Science Lab and they will do a presentation at the end of the STEAM Day.
No science without technology! Richard Byrne shared his ideas and findings for the STEAM events in his Free Technology for Teachers blog.

So glad I follow this Blog!
Richard Byrne posted a great blog about the science Journal App for a science classroom! He is describing five ways of how this app can make a classroom engaging and inspire students to learn science authentically! Thank you, Richard, for a thought-provoking post!!
