    Q1: How do you define STEAM? Is is more than Science, Tech, Engineering, Arts, Math? #caedchat
  • LMasterEdD Mar 26 @ 11:08 PM EDT
    A1: I think it's also about an interdisciplinary approach to learning that values thinking, problem solving, and collaboration #caedchat
  • TechnoKelli Mar 26 @ 11:08 PM EDT
    A1: Beyond the disciplines, the major takeaway is that it develops problem solving skills and empathy in Ss. #caedchat
  • MarkLoundy Mar 26 @ 11:08 PM EDT
    A1 It can depend upon the implementation. Anybody can say they're STEAM. But it takes a lot to make it valid. #CAedchat
    In reply to @ArcherEdTech
  • CHarrisMath Mar 26 @ 11:08 PM EDT
    A1. Synergy - the sum of the parts is greater than the whole. But there has to be an overt connection to make it a sum. #caedchat
  • ArcherEdTech - Moderator Mar 26 @ 11:09 PM EDT
    A1 - I think STEAM has become more T than anything else. We need to be sure we are incorporating engineering when possible. #caedchat
  • TheTechRabbi Mar 26 @ 11:09 PM EDT
    A1: Honestly wish we didn’t have to pigeonhole #STEAM & #STEM Must be present or w/o one do you have anything? #caedchat Does it alienate?

    Heya! This is Gustavo - 5th grade teacher - Porterville, CA #caedchat

    Love that answer! #caedchat
    In reply to @TheTechRabbi
  • MsHaughs Mar 26 @ 11:09 PM EDT
    A1: For me #STEAMed is multi-disciplinary & hands-on instruction w/focus on those subject areas (sci, math, etc.) #caedchat
  • LMasterEdD Mar 26 @ 11:09 PM EDT
    .@ArcherEdTech The T should be the ubiquitous part, and not always the focus. Hour of Code does not equal STEAM #caedchat
    In reply to @ArcherEdTech
  • darrenmassa Mar 26 @ 11:09 PM EDT
    A1. STEAM is critical for effective problem solving across the curricula. #caedchat
  • CrazySciTeach Mar 26 @ 11:09 PM EDT
    A1: for me, STEAM Is about design thinking, its Ss collaborating and failing and learning and persevering #caedchat
  • darrenmassa Mar 26 @ 11:10 PM EDT
    I can't like this enough. #caedchat @ArcherEdTech
    In reply to @LMasterEdD, @ArcherEdTech
  • MrKirkbride Mar 26 @ 11:10 PM EDT
    A1 I think STEAM/STREAM is just an acronym that really should include all 21st Century Skills. The entire alphabet could be used. #caedchat
  • ArcherEdTech - Moderator Mar 26 @ 11:10 PM EDT
    Loving all of your answers - focus on student thinking #caedchat
  • TheTechRabbi Mar 26 @ 11:10 PM EDT
    Truth. Then again #hourofcode is so far more a novelty. It is a great tool to boost awareness tho. #caedchat
    In reply to @LMasterEdD, @ArcherEdTech
  • HowardKiyuna Mar 26 @ 11:10 PM EDT
    A2: Approach it more as a Build. Engineering first. Everything else support the build. So it looks more like ETSMA in my rm. #caedchat
  • sheehyrw Mar 26 @ 11:10 PM EDT
    A1. STEAM is an opportunity for Ts to take a wide approach and use each to build on the other. #caedchat
  • principledlady Mar 26 @ 11:10 PM EDT
    A1: STEAM opportunities for true inquiry, integration of content the teaching of alternate means for expressing relevant learning #caedchat
  • ChiaClass Mar 26 @ 11:11 PM EDT
    What is the R in STREAM? I haven't heard that one before. #CAedchat
    In reply to @MrKirkbride
  • rickeducation Mar 26 @ 11:11 PM EDT
    A1: STEAM is more than the sum of it components. It is primarily about integration of curricula @ArcherEdTech #caedchat

    A1. STEAM subjects build on each other and promote collaboration, communication, critical thinking, and creativity. #p21 #caedchat

    A1) I am a Social Studies teacher. I don't do STEAM, but I have friends who do. I'd like to watch and learn tonight. #caedchat
  • Ajay460 Mar 26 @ 11:11 PM EDT
    A1: It encompasses all subject areas because they are woven together or should be. #caedchat
  • TheTechRabbi Mar 26 @ 11:11 PM EDT
    A1: Love idea of dismantling traditional courses to focus on how they’re part of a much larger process. Math & Science relevance. #caedchat
  • MarkLoundy Mar 26 @ 11:11 PM EDT
    our school is STEAM with three years of PBL PD supporting it, along with a central makerspace and ethos. #CAedchat

  • TheMrMalana Mar 26 @ 11:12 PM EDT
    A1: It has the potential to globally address multiple subject areas, but the acronym tends to exclude rather than include #caedchat
  • TomWhalen805 Mar 26 @ 11:12 PM EDT
    so does social studies. #caedchat

    A1 it should be all of the parts but still biggest focus on M, T(used as a tool substitution in many cases) & #caedchat
  • LMasterEdD Mar 26 @ 11:12 PM EDT
    .@TomWhalen805 Embed it in the understanding of cultures and history. Aqueducts = engineering feat #caedchat
    In reply to @TomWhalen805
  • ArcherEdTech - Moderator Mar 26 @ 11:12 PM EDT
    Love that you have the PD to support it - rather than just putting the STEAM label on it #caedchat
    In reply to @MarkLoundy
  • MrPereida Mar 26 @ 11:12 PM EDT
    A1: Its Multi-disciplinary, collaborating, communication, critical thinking, creativity and student focused. #caedchat
  • CHarrisMath Mar 26 @ 11:12 PM EDT
    I would say that if you connect your curriculum with another content area you are on your way to steamy education #caedchat

    @lmasteredd One should not "do" technology any more than one should "do" pencils. Yet Ts still schedule "technology time." #CAedchat

  • inBituinEDU Mar 26 @ 11:16 PM EDT

    A2: In K-5, presenting Ss with authentic real-world problems is typically missing, limiting their practice in being innovative. #caedchat
  • ArcherEdTech - Moderator Mar 26 @ 11:18 PM EDT
    A2 - Engineering, and maybe Arts. But I think Ts know how to bring in the arts easier than engineering. #caedchat
