STEM Tools Devices & Simulations ((3 Credits))

Catalog description

STEM approaches (science, technology, engineering, mathematics), possibly expanded to include arts (STEAM), create problem-solving environments that are often cross-disciplinary, where technology tools can support, share and accelerate learning and where the arts can add to creativity and innovation. Application areas can range from K12, to higher education, to corporate, to healthcare. Students start by overviewing a variety of STEM / STEAM approaches, tools and projects in multiple disciplines. Then selecting several tools relevant to their learner or client needs, they will design an environment that employs the relevant STEM or STEAM tools and that articulates the conceptual, educational, design, and assessment principles employed.
