Although STEM vs. STEAM is still open to debate, it’s increasingly clear that an art-enriched STEAM curriculum is preferable to purely technical STEM programs. Let’s dive into a handful of considerations for why art should play an equally active role alongside technical education.
A supportive classroom environment leads to positive classroom management. Getting to know your students, offering relevant feedback and student-centered teaching are just some of the ways teachers can create such an environment.
Edtech has great potential of personalizing education. As long as it’s used to complement the physical classroom, I’m confident they will continue to be a huge part of students’ lives long after the pandemic will have become just a collective memory.
Gen Z students have a special relationship with technology, which has shaped their expectations about education. Find out what is the 4Rs Model and how it can help teachers adapt their methods:
Gen Z students prefer visual learning above all others and adapting our teaching methods for them is extremely important. Otherwise, we risk denying them the right to an engaging educational journey and missing many teaching opportunities.

However, this frenzied adoption of mobile devices within learning has presented many new challenges for education leaders.

But why exactly do students of all ages simply love a game-based learning experience?
When teaching to a class full of students it can be a bit difficult to truly personalize the learning experience for each. Of course, any good teacher will adapt and adjust the content to the class level, but it can’t be done at every student level. This is why LMSs come in handy to all the teachers and students that want to “scratch beyond the surface” and access a deeper learning level.
