STEM is an abbreviation of four directions:

·        S — Science (science)

· T — Technology

·        E — Engineering (engineering)

·        M — Mathematics (mathematics)

The idea of STEM is to combine these disciplines into practical training in order to prepare schoolchildren and students for the real challenges of the future.

The world is changing rapidly: automation, artificial intelligence, ecology, digitalization — all this requires new thinking and new skills. STEM education teaches:

·           analyze and hypothesize,

·         work in a team and solve practical problems,

·         programming, designing and testing,

·         apply mathematics in real life.

 According to UNESCO, countries with high levels of STEM education have more sustainable economies and innovative systems.

·        Development of critical and logical thinking

·         Preparing for the professions of the future (engineer, IT specialist, environmentalist, analyst)

·        Interest in learning through experiments, projects, and robots

·        Participation in global challenges — from space to climate

STEM is not just a direction in education, it is an approach to life. It teaches us to see the world as a set of tasks that can be understood, explored, and solved. These are the skills that are needed in the 21st century.

 STEM is a ticket to the world of the future.
