Integration of subjects has been the new way we are introducing STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math) to our students. The next generation of science standards accentuate engineering design along with scientific inquiry. It is important for students to know, understand and connect the relationship between scientific investigations and engineering design. This cross connection of knowledge allows for greater problem solving abilities, new idea generation and stronger understanding of technology. There is also the idea that integrating engineering and science also increases mathematical understanding during the process. The goal is for students to realize the importance of science and engineering in innovation and in solving many of today’s challenges.
As technology advances in our world, so does our dependence on it. Full Steam Ahead is committed to growing students’ ability to be creative with ideas. Our signature “Maker Traits” ensure students are able to follow the path that science and engineering take together. Perseverance, Fearless Problem Solving, Idea Generation and Self Guided Learning are all abilities that create our future leaders!
