General Info
My goal is to enable children to participate more actively in lessons by using simulations and STEA(M)-based education methods that provide better lectures to children and to contribute to children's more self-confidence. According to the Turkish research institute, the participation rate of students in live classes during the covid period is 47% and the active participation rate is 11%. One of the biggest reasons for this is that students are becoming more withdrawn during the covid period and they have great difficulties in attending classes. Thanks to the project I will do, I aim to ensure that children take an active role in the lesson with their phones and adapt to the lesson better.
Applicability and Audience
Details
Especially after the decrease in the participation of the students in the lessons after the covid 19 pandemic period.Thinking that STEA(M)-based training and simulation applications to be used in the lessons will be useful in rebuilding the self-confidence of the students so that the students can take a more active role in the lessons.
My STEA(M) education policy is basically to promote simulation and STEA(M) based education in schools in order to increase active participation of students in lessons and raise more self-confident generations.
In the first two weeks before the schools open, we plan to give workshops tailored to branch teachers. We will select experts to introduce the digital tools to be used for workshops. For two weeks, we will hold a workshop for ten days, five days a week, for four hours a day. The contents will be processed synchronously with the subject of the courses.
I guess that the number of supporters will be low at first, but in my country, we already have a 2-week update seminar period before the schools open, and in this period, the current curriculum is a bit lacking for teachers and I think it would be more acceptable for teachers to fill this missing part with steam training. After seeing the benefits that the training will provide on the students, I think that the teachers will participate and support these trainings more willingly.

At that moment this isn't an officially approved education policy. It is an assignment done as a part of the SteamonEdu Blended Course 2021
With the steam applications integrated into the course, effective, confident and knowledgeable students will be able to grow in the course.
