Learning Without Limits
STE(A)M Truck is designed to help eliminate inequities in local systems and catalyze transformation across education. Through mobile innovation labs designed to pull youth, and their educators, out of their comfort zones and give them the opportunity to engage, create and learn using STEAM-driven curriculum and real tools and technologies.
The Challenge
The research is clear. Access to hands-on building, tinkering, and experiential learning-based curriculum can increase access to STEM careers and build the skills critical for long-term success. However, many of the tools, expertise, and time needed to utilize these types of strategies are often unavailable in public schools, and especially so in public schools serving low-income communities.
āIt is time to begin re-evaluating not only how we are teaching our students, but the materials we are using to teach them. Research into the expectations of 21st century learners reveals that we want learners to be able to do much more than read, write, and do math; we expect learners to also think critically and creatively, solve real life problems, use foreign languages, work in teams, collaborate and embrace diversity.ā
Our Approach
STE(A)M Truck provides an innovative approach to learning by providing students with access to STEAM-based experiences in communities where they donāt often exist. Whether it be through one of our STE(A)M Truck youth engagement programs or educator Professional Learning Experiences, we provide youth and their educators with access relevant, career connected STEAM engagement through the use of real tools and technology.
