Separated S.T.E.M. - Each subject is taught separately with the hope that the
synthesis of disciplinary knowledge will be applied – referred to as “Silos”
Integrated STEM - The principles of science and the analysis of mathematics are
combined with the design process of technology and engineering in the
classroom.
So what is STEAM then?
• Language arts (English, ESL,…)
• Fine arts (painting, sculpture…)
• Physical arts (sports, dance…)
• Manual arts (physical skills…)
• Liberal arts (sociology, philosophy, psychology, history, …)
• Art
• Drama/Theatre
• Music
• Dance
• Film
• Creative Writing
• Architecture/Landscape
Design

Arts education (research)
The arts can be, for both students and teachers, forms of expression,
communication, creativity, imagination, observation, perception, and
thought…The arts can also open pathways toward understanding the
richness of peoples and cultures that inhabit our world, particularly during
this period of global change.

Education)

• The model is cyclical
– a sequence of
several related
problem solving
activities.
• Problems may get
increasingly
complex and/or
students get less
support.
Central to the STEM-
IP model are:
• Understanding –
the facts,
processes and
concepts of
STEM disciplines
• Skills –the ways
of working in the
STEM disciplines
The STEM-IP model is
comprised of 4 major
types of student activity:
1. Socialise
2. Challenge
3. Respond
4. Reflect
