The Regional Center for Educational Planning of Western Greece (PE.K.ES. D.E.), Computer Technology Institute and Press “Diofantus” (C.T.I.) and Hellenic Open University (HOU) – DAISSy Research Group co-organize the Panhellenic and International Conference “STE(A)M educators and education”.

The conference aspires to be a step for academic dialogue for the members of the scientific and educational community in Greece and Europe, as well as other stakeholders, on contemporary scientific approaches and policies in the field of STE(A)M education. Presentations of experts and distinguished scientists from Greece and abroad will provoke a fruitful dialogue on the developments of the implementation of the STE(A)M educational approach in Greek and European Education. STE(A)M education proposes the introduction of Art in STEM education and of all disciplines in STEM education as well – Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics – and includes learning experiences that boost interdisciplinarity, creativity and innovation among learners, through an attractive way of teaching and training, with application to real life problems.

The Conference is coordinated by Dr. Achilles Kameas, Professor of HOU, and Dr. Spyridon Papadakis, Organizational Coordinator of PEKES Western Greece.

The conference is addressed to scientists, teachers and educators of all levels engaged or interested in applying STE(A)M education, researchers and postgraduate students, education executives, providers of vocational education and training but also to any individual interested in being informed about the latest scientific developments, experiences and the results of the implementation of the STE(A)M educational approach.
