STEAM Education Aproach: Application Examples in Turkey and the World

Öz

STEAM education is an innovative educational approach that combines the disciplines of science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics. This new educational approach, which evolved from STEM education (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) in the 1990s by adding art in 2006, has filled gaps in creativity and innovation within the model. The importance of proficiency in STEAM disciplines, integrated thinking, and innovation is increasing day by day for individuals and society. The fact that STEAM is an interdisciplinary educational approach adaptable to the needs of the current century has ensured its widespread adoption worldwide. Among the many studies in the literature on the STEAM educational approach, analyses comparing application examples are pretty limited. Therefore, this research aims to bring together successful application examples from Turkey and around the world, compare them, and fill a gap in the literature. The practical importance of the research is that it presents case studies to field experts and educators who adopt the STEAM education approach and provides guidance for new research. The research is a qualitative, interpretive study grounded in a literature review and document analysis. The data for the research findings were obtained from application forms from schools that were considered good examples of schools adopting the STEAM approach in Finland, the United States, Singapore, and Turkey. The findings emphasize the sustainable, problem-solving, and holistic development dimensions of STEAM applications and prove that it is a practical educational approach in this century. However, it also shows that, to ensure practice efficiency, the STEAM education model should be adopted and incorporated into the school's learning culture rather than integrated into existing courses, and that it brings significant gains, particularly in student motivation and interest levels.
