CONTEXT

The aim of the project is to teach STEAM by using hands on activities on urban gardens and integrating permaculture values. STEAM is an integrated approach to learning which requires two or more standards from Science, Technology, Engineering, Math, and the Arts to be taught AND assessed in and through each other. Participants (educators and children) will become familiar with the space of a garden as a rich environment for teaching and learning across the curriculum, especially on STEAM field. Ecological and social justice considerations will frame all aspects of the project, with a particular focus on the place of the teacher (personal, cultural, and geographic positioning and identities) in garden-based education.

OBJECTIVES

The main objective of the project is enhance the knowledge of 150 kindergarten educators on teaching of STEAM through urban gardening. Gardens as educational places ask educators and learners to value process over product and attend to the moment as it unfolds. School gardens encourage students and educators to look for connections between subjects and ecosystems; to embrace spontaneity and sensuality as well as critical thinking and experimentation. Another objective of this project is the integration of Permaculture values. Permaculture is the conscious design and maintenance of agriculturally productive ecosystems which have the diversity, stability, and resilience of natural ecosystems. It is the harmonious integration of landscape and people providing their food, energy, shelter, and other material and non-material needs in a sustainable way. The UrbSTEAM initiative will meet the needs and requirements of both teachers and the children whom they are teaching.
