STEM in the LIFE

Description

We want to apply this project to create this awareness for our students in our century when genetic copying,artificial robots, unmanned planes,microchips and more,which we watched in science fiction movies once upon a time, have come true in the world of science and technology.Gaining 21st century skills to our students in the field of Science, Mathematics and Technology is one of the priorities of the EU and ERASMUS + program. Because, in the report titled “Science Education Now:Renewed Pedagogy for the Future of Europe” (Rocard et al., 2007) published by the EU in 2007,science and technology education across the EU alarmed.It was emphasized that especially in the fields of science, technology and mathematics of young individuals decreased significantly and in the absence of effective action plans,Europe's long-term innovative capacity will decrease significantly.The related report emphasized not only the science and technology education in schools, but also the skills of using information that enable the society to survive and adapt to the scientific and technological atmosphere of our age.Following this report,the European Union has given the opportunity for European researchers to develop collaborative projects by making project calls under the field of science and society for the renewal of science and technology education throughout Europe and the implementation of the inquiry-based science education specified in the report.The aim of the project;Developing our students in STEM and Coding,21st century skills that will enable them to be successful in this field,Creativity,Communication skills,Intellectual curiosity,Critical thinking,Information and Media literacy skills,Cooperation skills,Problem-defining-formulating-solving skills.Thanks to our cooperation with our foreign partners to grow up,it is to create a process that will benefit from the experience of Europe in the field of STEM within the framework of the exchange of good practices.Project activities are based on sharing good practices among project partners and adapting all activities to all schools.With the project activities to be realized;Teachers in project partner schools will create project-based learning awareness that will raise the students who will make innovations that will add value to life by taking the theoretical information revealed by the basic sciences such as physics,chemistry, biology(science) and mathematics blending it with the practice of technology and engineering. Since there is no engineering cycle in the classical curriculum in our project partner schools,a project process is aimed at developing teachers' skills to integrate the Engineering cycle into their lessons.The traditional classroom environment increases the indifference to STEM instead of attracting students to participate in STEM fields.‘With the 'Design Workshops',we aim to create a new educational approach that aims to help the project partner schools gain interdisciplinary cooperation,systematic thinking,being open to communication,ethical values,research,production,creativity and the ability to solve problems in the most appropriate way.Thanks to the project,in our Project partner schools;-Science and Math classes will be taught with STEM based,-Web 2.0 tools will increase in use in lessons,-We will integrate engineering design into our education curricula with our Design Workshops ,-An understanding of education will develop in which awareness of coding and STEM is formed.-An innovative school atmosphere will be created which gas gained competence to train students who can design what they think with their Design Workshops,has produced, researched and adopted project-based education.One of the 6 LTT activities that will take place during the project will be for teachers and five for students.A total of 25 students,2 teachers and 10 accompanying staff from each school will participate in the 6 LTT activities to take place.Teachers and accompanying staff are from the branches of Physics,Chemistry, Mathematics, Biology, Information Technologies and students interested in the fields of STEM.The infrastructure of the students who will perform STEM studies in Design Workshops with LTT activities to be realized will be supported with Coding ,Robotics ,3D Design Modeling trainings.Because,thanks to the 'Design Workshops',which is one of the concrete outcomes of the project,in the partner schools of the project,students who will be the innovators of the future will be provided with the opportunity to apply,produce, question,and search for creative problem solving techniques.We believe that the project will continue its impact without any extra funding in the process after its completion,thanks to its sustainable and practicle outputs. This is important for the development of partner schools. In particular, planning the Design Workshops and STEM festival to continue after the end of the project will provide serious benefits in the long term.
