Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: A STEAM Program was implemented in teacher education to prepare primary pre-service teachers to develop lesson plans that take full advantage of the interdisciplinary connections between science and mathematics topics. In this paper we describe how primary pre-service teachers´ perspectives about STEAM pedagogy evolved through a science and mathematics module. Data collection consisted of pre-service teachers’ assignments through STEM activities, interviews, and questionnaires. Overall, findings support the notion that the program had a positive impact on pre-service teachers’ understanding about STEAM approach.
