Course Title: 
STEAM
Course Description: 

Science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics (STEAM) is embedded within all fields of study. Students will be intellectually challenged, learn to effectively problem solve and discover unique solutions given these different areas of study. The content covered within this course includes:

 

  • The evolution of STEAM
  • Physical Science concepts (kinematics, forces, electricity, etc.) through studying simple machines to complex robotic designs
  • Engineering design process
  • Basic programing concepts, using scratch and python
  • Basic Chemistry concepts (structure of an atom, simple compounds etc.)

 

Students will discuss, confer, and debate with classmates to explain a phenomenon investigated in class. By the end of this course students will have strengthened their critical thinking and reasoning skills through inquiry-based learning.
