Picking up STEAM

With "Picking up STEAM", the project team took stock of the work carried out during the first year of the project, focusing in particular on the context and needs, and we outline the work that will inform the development of our STEAM roadmap for science education in Europe.

While the identification of best practices and of policy challenges are yet to be completed, it is already possible to identify four main areas for the development of specific policy recommendations:

• Encourage the uptake of STE(A)M careers;
• Increase diversity in STE(A)M;
• Increase science and arts literacy for all;
• Align education with tomorrow’s societal needs. 

For the remainder of the project, we will be working towards refining specific policy recommendations, taking into account the specific policy context and challenges both at EU level as well as in different European countries.
