STEAM in Early Childhood Education
What is STEAM? (will present an evolving history of STEAM just in general and most importantly when presenting the definition indicate the fact that there is no common definition to STEAM or directed specific approach)
What is the research lacking when it comes to STEAM in early years education? That could be linked to the rest of the LR?
Role of Museums in Early Childhood education pertaining to STEAM education
Bring and discuss large scale studies. Role of the museum in implementing innovative approaches for STEAM education such as Project-based approach for early childhood. (attached source)
There is a systematic review I have added “early years learning at the science museum” what is lacking in this study is perspective of teacher’s and how they collaborated with museum specialists. Centered around the learner and not the teacher.
Research Gap
Teacher’s competency and professional development in Qatar
Decentralization of education in Qatar
Lack of research when it comes to early years teachers participation/role/collaboration within STEAM programs in school-museum partnership.
