<p>With STEM and recently STE(A)M skills growing in demand, a lot of initiatives and programmes have been established at regional, national, and European levels to promote STEM studies and careers and to support teachers’ professional development. Many of the projects in this field have similar objectives, although they may use different approaches. We can all learn from their collective experience, as well as build synergies and potentially work together which will enhance our own efforts and bring better results.</p>
<p>Here are some of the projects that are currently being implemented or have just completed:</p>
<h2>1. STEAMonEdu</h2>
<p><strong><a href="https://steamonedu.eu/about/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img decoding="async" class="wp-image-1269 alignleft" src="https://steamonedu.eu/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/STEAMonEdu_logo_frame-300x184.jpg" alt="" width="198" height="121" srcset="https://steamonedu.eu/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/STEAMonEdu_logo_frame-300x184.jpg 300w, https://steamonedu.eu/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/STEAMonEdu_logo_frame-238x146.jpg 238w, https://steamonedu.eu/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/STEAMonEdu_logo_frame-50x31.jpg 50w, https://steamonedu.eu/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/STEAMonEdu_logo_frame-122x75.jpg 122w, https://steamonedu.eu/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/STEAMonEdu_logo_frame.jpg 506w" sizes="(max-width:767px) 198px, 198px" />STEAMonEdu</a> – our project &#8211; </strong>aims to increase the adoption and impact of STE(A)M education by investing in the community of stakeholders and the professional development of educators.

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2>3. CHOICE</h2>
<p><a href="https://www.euchoice.eu/the-project" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><strong><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="wp-image-1262 alignleft" src="https://steamonedu.eu/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Choice-project-logo.jpg" alt="" width="201" height="125" srcset="https://steamonedu.eu/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Choice-project-logo.jpg 294w, https://steamonedu.eu/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Choice-project-logo-235x146.jpg 235w, https://steamonedu.eu/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Choice-project-logo-50x31.jpg 50w, https://steamonedu.eu/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Choice-project-logo-120x75.jpg 120w" sizes="auto, (max-width:767px) 201px, 201px" />Choice</strong></a> project is about increasing young people’s motivation to choose STEM careers through an Innovative Cross-disciplinary STE(A)M approach to education. It aims to promote and improve STEM education at schools by designing innovative Open Educational Resources (OERs) collected in a MOOC that will increase the professional competences of teachers by equipping them with a STE(A)M approach of teaching.</p>
<p>The main outputs of CHOICE are easily transferable and implementable into different national contexts across Europe and beyond. More specifically they include:</p>
<ul>
<li>State of the Art study, Reflective practice case-study compendium, Framework for reforming STEM curricula &amp; Comparative Piloting Analysis.</li>
<li>Working guidelines “Non-formal education for promoting co-production of educational resources”, OERs &amp; MOOC.</li>
<li>Good practice tool CHOICE@SCHOOL, Policy recommendations.</li>
</ul>
<p>It is a 36-month KA3 project (January 2020 – December 2022), coordinated by CESIE, Italy, with participation of Lifelong Learning Platform.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2>4. Towards a European STE(A)M platform</h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class=" wp-image-1315 alignleft" src="https://steamonedu.eu/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/eu_stem_logo-1-300x203.png" alt="" width="201" height="136" srcset="https://steamonedu.eu/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/eu_stem_logo-1-300x203.png 300w, https://steamonedu.eu/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/eu_stem_logo-1-216x146.png 216w, https://steamonedu.eu/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/eu_stem_logo-1-50x34.png 50w, https://steamonedu.eu/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/eu_stem_logo-1-111x75.png 111w, https://steamonedu.eu/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/eu_stem_logo-1.png 396w" sizes="auto, (max-width:767px) 201px, 201px" />Another KA3 Support for Policy Reform project (2020-20222) aims to evolve the current<a href="https://www.stemcoalition.eu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"> <strong>EU STEM Coalition</strong></a> network into a full-fledged EU-level support centre for the national and regional STEM platforms as countries, regions and other stakeholders outside the network through a range of new and upscaled support actions, better EU-level (comparative) documentation and a new, more scalable decentralised structure of the network. ]</p>
<p>The project aims to respond to this challenge by strengthening and upscaling existing successful STE(A)M strategies (e.g. Dutch &amp; Danish Technology Pacts) and kickstarting the ‘bottom-up’ development of new ones in Member States that do not yet have one in place. It will do so by:- Launching a “European STE(A)M platform”. Building on the existing EU STEM Coalition network, this platform will facilitate best practice sharing, provide direct support to governments and stakeholders in the development of new approaches and function as an EU-level expertise hub- Kickstarting the development of new strategies through a series of roundtables. These roundtables will identify national skills challenges and deliver country recommendations (taking into account how similar challenges are addressed in other Member States) and a ‘value proposition’, outlining how the EU STEM Coalition can support their implementation.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2>5. ATS STEM</h2>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.atsstem.eu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="wp-image-1277 alignleft" src="https://steamonedu.eu/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/ATS_STEM_logo.png" alt="" width="209" height="72" srcset="https://steamonedu.eu/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/ATS_STEM_logo.png 252w, https://steamonedu.eu/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/ATS_STEM_logo-50x17.png 50w, https://steamonedu.eu/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/ATS_STEM_logo-150x52.png 150w" sizes="auto, (max-width:767px) 209px, 209px" />Assessment of Transversal Skills in STEM (ATS STEM)</a></strong> project will create a live experiment where six countries will design STEM learning tasks, which are cross-curricular, so that students in lower secondary can have opportunities to develop a range of STEM competences. The project will develop STEM formative assessment strategies to support teachers customise their learning designs to better meet the needs of their students. The project will use constructive alignment to ensure the assessments are appropriate for the learning outcomes and that they support an active student-centred pedagogical approach. Digital technology will underpin and support these assessment strategies by providing teachers and students with data to enhance student learning.</p>
<p>This KA3 project is implemented during February 2019 &#8211; February 2022 by 12 partners from 8 countries, coordinated by Dublin City University (12 partners – 8 countries) <strong>2019-2022.</strong></p>

<p>The main outcomes of the project:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.eurosteamproject.eu/res/Comparative_analysis_report_vlatest.pdf">STEAM Education in Europe</a> Sept 2018 – a comparative analysis report which has identified shortcomings within the STEAM subjects and highlighted how we can introduce different learning methods into our classrooms to reduce these skills gaps in the future.</li>
<li><strong>STEAM camps</strong> In order to give educators a starting block for introducing these subjects in the classroom, the project partners have created 3 camps: Coding &amp; Technology, Creativity &amp; Logic, Contest &amp; Challenges. These camps have been fully explained through resources and guides and are openly available.</li>
<li><strong>Online Toolkit</strong> can act as a library for educators throughout Europe to access if they need to run a STEAM based lesson or workshop within their classroom. This is open source and freely available to use for students and teachers.</li>
</ul>

<h4>So what do we have in common and what differentiates the three projects?</h4>
<p><strong>STEAMIT</strong> and <strong>STEAMonEdu</strong> both strive to define the competences of STE(A)M <em>educators</em> by investigating and engaging educators of formal and non-formal education. <strong>CHOICE</strong> differentiates by taking into account the needs of the <em>students</em> in STEM and STE(A)M Education and actively involves them along with educators in Creative Leadership Teams keeping them close to the labour market and STEM/STE(A)M career oriented approaches during the implementation of the project. Many common elements were also identified under our common goal, and partners discussed how the three projects complement each other. For example, all the three projects will create MOOCs, however, STEAMIT MOOC is aimed at  educators and starts in October of 2020, STEAMonEdu&#8217;s MOOC for educators is planned for 2021, and CHOICE MOOC will address students, so all interested  participants will be able to follow all of them.</p>
<p>We discussed the outcomes of our projects so far, our very first impressions regarding the future of policy reform in STE(A)M education, and our common findings regarding the continuously arising interest of all education professionals and policy makers across Europe.</p>
<p>We also had an extensive conversation on possible future synergies, potential collaboration, and how our projects complement each other something that unites us under the main common goal &#8211; to boost STEAM education!</p>

<p>On 7 October 2020, our STEAMonEDU partner &#8211; the pan-European association <a href="https://steamonedu.eu/partnership/all-digital/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><strong>ALL DIGITAL</strong></a> announced the winners of their annual <a href="https://all-digital.org/awards-2020-finalists/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><strong>ALL DIGITAL Awards</strong></a>. The Awards recognize individuals and organisations across Europe that enable citizens to transform and enrich their lives through the benefits and opportunities created by digital technologies.</p>
<p>The categories have been changing from year to year, and recently three of the recurring ones have been: Best Digital Changemaker, Best e-Facilitator, and Best Digital Resource.<a href="https://all-digital.org/awards-2020-finalists/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"> Read about all the finalists of ALL DIGITAL Awards 2020</a></p>
<h3>Best Digital Resource Category</h3>
<p>A <strong>digital resource</strong> is an online product for educational benefit, contributing to enhancing digital skills or providing an organisation with a useful tool to use with the customers or by customers directly. It should be free to use and be sustainable beyond its development (or funded) period. Only ALL DIGITAL member organisations can nominate the resource, because the network want to highlight those resources that their members are using in their work and find it useful. The resource can be developed by an ALL DIGITAL member organisation; by a consortium within a project where a member organisation is a partner; or by an external company, if the member organisation uses it routinely within their training programmes. Examples include, but are not limited to: a self-assessment tool, an educational game, a serious of instructional videos, an online training course or MOOC.</p>

<p>Receiving the Award, project manager <strong>Jutta Schneider</strong> said, &#8220;<em>The Award is particularly important because our vision is that all children learn how to code regardless of disabilities or no</em><em>t. This is our big vision and our heart.And it will help us spread this vision in Europe and promote it further in schools and other organisations that want to teach kids to code.&#8221;  </em><strong>Thomas Schmidt</strong>, CEO of Helliwood, added that in this work parents are also very important. &#8220;<em>Children can learn coding at school, but then they can come home and code a little bit more. They can learn together with their parents</em>.&#8221;</p>

<p>On the occasion of the <a href="https://summit.all-digital.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><strong>ALL DIGITAL Summit 2020</strong></a>, on 8 October the <a href="https://steamonedu.eu/partnership/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><strong>STEAMonEdu </strong>project team</a> organised a workshop within the thematic stream <a href="https://summit.all-digital.org/certification/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">CERTIFICATION</a>. The workshop <strong>STE(A)M Education Practices and Competences </strong>was mainly targeting teachers, trainers, educators, researchers in educational methods and techniques, educational authorities, policy-makers and institutions, to enhance knowledge and understanding of the project’s ambition and expected outreach.</p>
<p>The workshop was moderated by <strong>Prof. Achilles Kameas</strong>, in his twofold role of the Chair of the ALL DIGITAL Board and Scientific Coordinator of the STEAMonEdu project, with support from Katrin Schuberth of Helliwood and Tiziana Parretti of ALL DIGITAL. Representatives of all project partners contributed to the delivery of the workshop and spoke about different aspects of the project:</p>
<ul>
<li>Overview of the STEAMonEdu project – Achilles Kameas, HOU <a href="https://www.dropbox.com/s/0tb7lq3flu9z0m0/Project%20overview%20AD%20Summit%20%5BKameas%5D.pdf?dl=0" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><em>(Presentation)</em></a></li>
<li>Basics of STE(A)M education – Spyros Papadakis, RDEWG <a href="https://www.dropbox.com/s/b1fhy5k9io69tt5/Basics%20of%20Stem%20S%20Papadakis.pdf?dl=0" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><em>(Presentation)</em></a></li>
<li>Characteristics of a STE(A)M education good practice – Paolo Russo, SGI <a href="https://www.dropbox.com/s/1pifoci6s4i8fab/Good%20STEAM%20Practices%20critera%20%5BRusso%5D.pdf?dl=0" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><em>(Presentation)</em></a></li>

<li>Towards a common understanding of a STE(A)M education <em> c</em>ompetence framework (interactive session) – Natalia Spyropoulou, HOU</li>
<li>The STEAMonEdu community of STE(A)M educators – Esther Subias, COLECTIC <a href="https://www.dropbox.com/s/yco13ca6c6fdp39/STEAMonEdu%20workshop_allDigital_Esthersubias.pdf?dl=0" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><em>(Presentation I</em></a><em> and </em><a href="https://www.dropbox.com/s/e0uapq2ajz50pvt/STEAMonEdu%20workshop_PepOliveras.pdf?dl=0" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><em> Presentation II)</em></a></li>
</ul>
<p>The workshop alternated a series of front presentations delivered by scientific experts with successful video stories and best practices. The entire consortium was involved, delivering key information  ranging from the basic aspects of STE(A)M education to exploring competence-based tools, the STE(A)M education competence framework, principles and criteria to evaluate practices, policy instruments and key features to enhance transferability.</p>
<p>Particularly relevant was the opportunity to see the applicability of STE(A)M education. Project partners presented <strong>six best practices</strong> gathered from different Member States, showing the adoption of STE(A)M initiatives, to enable workshop participants to observe practical outcomes and shiny examples. The digital dimension of the workshop allowed the delivery of an extensive module, which was deemed crucial to maintain the attention high and on the spot, on STE(A)M Education and its potential in transnational integrated training programmes. As STE(A)M Education is practical, omni-comprehensive and based on a problem-oriented approach, it endeavours a social change, transferability of results and sustainable development, encouraging collaboration and a holistic approach to learning. The key message is to foster the coexistence and integration of different disciplines and contribute to the education of highly skilled professionals, able to tackle the growing challenges of continuously evolving business needs.</p>
<p>Among the successful stories, the <strong>Turtle Coding Box</strong> created by Aktion Mensch and implemented by our project partner <a href="https://steamonedu.eu/partnership/21st-century-competence-center/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Helliwood</a> in Germany, was also presented. The product is a shiny example of the possible initiatives combining STE(A)M disciplines in educational projects addressing young target groups. The Turtle Coding Box received the <a href="https://steamonedu.eu/news/turtle-coding-box-by-helliwood-receives-the-all-digital-award-2020/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">ALL DIGITAL Award 2020 in the Best Digital Resource Category</a>.</p>

<p>As part of its Forward-Looking Cooperation status, the STEAMonEdu project comprises specific tailor-made actions aiming to develop a policy influence toolkit and establish a structured framework in order to promote STE(A)M Education in the key policy making environments. In this perspective, a series of <strong>Capacity Buildin</strong><strong>g</strong> sessions have been developed, addressing the major pillars of advocacy practice and aspects of policy making, to provide the partners with concrete tools and methodologies to exert pressure in the most relevant environments and maintain the attention high and on the spot on STEAM Education and practices.</p>
<p>Due to its expertise in policy influence activity, <a href="https://steamonedu.eu/partnership/all-digital/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">ALL DIGITAL</a> has been responsible for the planning and delivery of the Capacity Building sessions. These are 90-min workshops held every Thursday, with the participation of all project partners and both internal and external speakers.</p>
<p>The <strong>first session </strong>on 29 October, chaired and delivered by ALL DIGITAL’s CEO, <strong>Renato Sabbadini</strong>, focussed on providing the most relevant tools and a broad overview on advocacy practice and on the key aspects and actors of policy making activity. The second part of the session was then dedicated to an open dialogue between partners, based on the comparison of STE(A)M Education policies in different Member States, using the output of an internal Questionnaire compiled by the parties. This set the foundations for the future sessions which will explore more in detail the relevant tools and methodologies to conduct advocacy at European, national, regional and local level.<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class=" wp-image-2513 aligncenter" src="https://steamonedu.eu/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Advocacy_problem-300x168.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="280" srcset="https://steamonedu.eu/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Advocacy_problem-300x168.jpg 300w, https://steamonedu.eu/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Advocacy_problem-768x429.jpg 768w, https://steamonedu.eu/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Advocacy_problem-260x146.jpg 260w, https://steamonedu.eu/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Advocacy_problem-50x28.jpg 50w, https://steamonedu.eu/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Advocacy_problem-134x75.jpg 134w, https://steamonedu.eu/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Advocacy_problem.jpg 959w" sizes="auto, (max-width:767px) 480px, 500px" /></p>
<p>The <strong>second</strong> capacity building session was dedicated to <em><strong>Effective advocacy practice to influence policy at European level</strong> </em>and welcomed the participation of <strong>Brikena Xhomaqi</strong>, Director of the <a href="http://lllplatform.eu/">Lifelong Learning Platform</a>, who offered a valuable contribution based on first-hand experience, on the tool, methodologies and activities conducted at European level, to achieve a significant impact in the relevant policy-making environments.</p>

<p>In order to develop the Policy Influence Toolkit, a series of <strong>five online capacity building sessions</strong> were organised by <a href="https://steamonedu.eu/partnership/all-digital/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">ALL DIGITAL</a> for STEAMonEdu project partners. Each of the sessions focused on a different layer and scenario, with the purpose of supporting project partners to develop and consolidate their policy-making strategy and to ensure a transversal action across Member States involved in the action.</p>
<p>With these sessions, we tried to provide a clear insight on how the institutions operate and to define the role of each organisation in convincing their government and policy makers in the importance of our cause. The sessions were centred on concrete examples of advocacy strategies and described diverse tools tailored to different actors at various levels. They were all moderated by ALL DIGITAL&#8217;s CEO Renato Sabbadini and involved speakers from partner organisations and external experts.</p>
<p>We have already talked about the first three sessions in our blogs <a href="https://steamonedu.eu/news/the-way-to-advocacy/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">The Way to Advocacy</a> and <a href="https://steamonedu.eu/news/one-step-closer-to-successful-advocacy/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">One step closer to successful advocacy</a>.</p>

<p>Valentin&#8217;s engaging presentation was complemented by <em>Ekaterina Clifford </em>of ALL DIGITAL, who touched upon other aspects <strong>Communicating for advocacy</strong> with the focus on what ALL DIGITAL does in policy and advocacy, what STEAMonEdu consortium can do as a whole to influence policy, and what tools, channels, approaches each partner can use in their work to convince busy policy-makers and raise awareness among educators and general public about the importance and benefits of STE(A)M education.</p>
<p>STEAMonEdu consortium thanks all the speakers for sharing their expertise and hopes these sessions will support partners in their activities to ensure proper impact and further exploitation of project results.</p>

<p>Our project partner <a href="https://steamonedu.eu/partnership/all-digital/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">ALL DIGITAL</a> has just launched a <strong>new tool</strong> <a href="https://mydigiskills.eu" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><strong>MyDigiSkills</strong></a> to help users understand their digital competences. It is based on the work done in the <a href="https://all-digital.org/projects/digcompsat/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">DigCompSAT</a> project, as delivered by ALL DIGITAL for the European Commission’s Joint Research Centre (JRC) in 2020.</p>
<p>The tool was <strong>launched on 23 March</strong> with an audience of over <strong>100 people</strong> at the special webinar organised within <a href="https://alldigitalweek.eu" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">All Digital Week 2021</a>. Scroll down to watch the recording of the webinar.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class=" wp-image-20482 aligncenter" src="https://all-digital.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/MyDigisSkills--300x182.jpg" sizes="auto, (max-width: 499px) 100vw, 499px" srcset="https://all-digital.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/MyDigisSkills--300x182.jpg 300w, https://all-digital.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/MyDigisSkills--768x467.jpg 768w, https://all-digital.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/MyDigisSkills--1024x623.jpg 1024w, https://all-digital.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/MyDigisSkills--700x426.jpg 700w, https://all-digital.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/MyDigisSkills-.jpg 1301w" alt="" width="579" height="353" /></p>
<p>MyDigiSkills is available in <strong>seven languages</strong>: English, Spanish, Italian, German, Latvian, Lithuanian, and Romanian. STEAMonEdu partner <a href="https://steamonedu.eu/partnership/educating-for-an-open-society-romania-foundation-eos/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">EOS Romania Foundation </a>translated the tool into Romanian.</p>
<p>The tool is based on the <strong>European Digital Competence Framework for Citizens</strong> &#8211; <strong><a href="https://ec.europa.eu/jrc/en/digcomp" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">DigComp</a> 2.1,</strong> and it is anticipated that users will take around 20 minutes to complete the self-reflection assessment. The user will receive a <strong>personalised report on their digital competences</strong> that they can use to identify their strengths and weaknesses and identify the areas they could develop through training.</p>
<p>The webinar helped delegates understand the new <a href="https://mydigiskills.eu" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><strong>MyDigiSkills.eu </strong></a>platform. It covered its history of development, rationale behind the tool, and provided in-depth coverage on how it works, its target audience, and potential uses.</p>
