Paper Abstract:
|
The State of Amazonas has one of the most modern industrial and technological centers in Latin America. As a result, the
search for skilled professionals for this job market is constantly growing. It is believed that STEAM teaching is an important
tool to improve engagement, creativity, innovation, problem-solving skills, and other cognitive benefits generating more
skilled professionals in the technology market. One approach that can be applied to STEAM teaching in schools is
collaborative learning through maker culture. From mobile labs the STEM Academy Project takes STEAM teaching to
high school students in public schools in the state of Amazonas. In the courses taught, collaborative learning is also applied
in order for students to understand topics such as basic electronics, robotics, and programming, thus stimulating
students' social skills and shared mutual learning, and attracting them to degree courses in STEAM fields. |
