The STEAM-Active (Project Number: 2021-1-ES01-KA220-HED-000032107) project is funded by the European Union. Views and opinions expressed are however those of the author(s) only and do not necessarily reflect those of the European Union or the European Education and Culture Executive Agency (EACEA). Neither the European Union nor EACEA can be held responsible for them.
The STEAM-Active project has two main aims:
A Protocol for Teachers that will illustrate the framework of the STEAM project design methodology with active teaching methodologies.
An E-learning based training course for engineering teachers that will include a theoretical description of STEAM approaches and of the implementation active methodologies.
A Collection of STEAM based Teaching-Learning Sequences that allow teachers to guide students in applying a project based learning methodology to solve socio-scientific-technological situations.
The STEAM-Active project is funded, by the European Commission through the Spanish National Agency for the Erasmus+ Programme, with the aim of enhancing the quality of teaching and improving pedagogies and assessment methods.
The Teaching Learning Sequence "Electrical Efficiency of buildings" is available on the project portal. It deals with the improvement of Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) for a building (1 building per student) considering the fixed electrical grid and local renewable generation possibilities, including collective self-consumption with neighbouring buildings.
The Teaching Learning Sequence "Planning the Placement of Recycling Containers" is available on the project portal. It contributes to circular economy by planning the placement of the recycling containers in the urban area with considering the network of the recycling points and the local features such as buildings and population density.
The Teaching Learning Sequence "Cycling tour and Tourism" is available on the project portal. It Introduces the concept of micromobility in modern municipalities. Micromobility is one of the areas where modern municipalities should invest. Cycling is in the middle of circular economy and it needs to be integrated not as a physical exercise (only) but as a way of living. Students should prepare a report and design a mobile app that will promote cycling routes across the country combined with points of interest (POIs) of cultural, touristic and shopping interest.
