Let's STEM up our education.

The project is not just meant for students and teachers but for the wider community and the objectives may differ from one group to another.

Students’ objectives:

• the most important objective is to increase students’ interest in science, technology, engineering and mathematics;

• to feel good and have enough self-esteem to work with others in a project (project based learning) and communicate with them in English;

• to develop a project based learning awareness;

• to develop or improve in students the skills such as creativity and intellectual curiosity, knowledge and media literacy, critical thinking, cooperative work, problem solving;

Teachers’ objectives:

• teachers that don’t have knowledge in STEM approach to learn about it, with the help of other partners, and to be confident to use it in their working and living environment;

• a project process in which teachers (that don’t have engineering in their classical curriculum) develop their skills related to the integration of engineering cycle into their course;

• to share good practices;

• to create a positive school atmosphere that would contribute to students’ logical thinking, to the development of their creativity in engineering and develop their self-esteem;

• to learn about other cultures and share the experience with other colleagues to motivate them and to promote Erasmus+;
