After the 2018 course “STEM Is Everywhere” meant to connect Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) classes with “real life” and help teachers integrate real-world problems into their STEM lessons and practices, the European Schoolnet Academy is launching a new MOOC.

Designed and carried out by Scientix, the community for science education in Europe, the ‘STEM is Everywhere! Rerun’ MOOC will help primary and secondary school teachers, and teacher trainers from Europe and beyond, to identify Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) in everyday life and learn how to integrate real-world STEM problems to their lessons and practice

The first STEM MOOCs package of European Schoolnet Academy consists of three unique MOOCs and allows teachers to obtain a special certificate from European Schoolnet Academy on their “Connecting STEM to the world all around us in an Integrated STEM expertise”. These courses give teachers the opportunity to bring their learning experience to the next level by mastering the integration of real-world STEM problems in their lessons with the ‘STEM is Everywhere!’ MOOC, and discovering how to develop and implement a STEM integrated lesson plan with the STE(A)M IT MOOCs.

Thanks to the ‘STEM is Everywhere! Rerun’ MOOC, participants will:

• Identify STEM in everyday life and learn how to integrate real-world STEM problems in your lessons
• Build confidence in trying out new methods in the classroom, such as an interdisciplinary approach
• Explore a range of resources, tools and strategies for activities that enhance STEM in real life
• Learn about 21st-century skills and how to address them in the classroom • Review the work of course peers
• Reflect on your professional practice, beliefs and learning

DATES

• ‘STEM is Everywhere! Rerun’: 7 September – 14 October 2020 (5.5 weeks)
• ‘Integrated STEM Teaching’ MOOCs: 26 October – 2 December (5.5 weeks)
