Proponents of STEAM argue that it can create opportunities for children to learn creatively and make strong connections between discipline areas within the context of an informal curriculum. Others advocate for an integrated STEM approach, which combines science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. This book approaches STEAM from multiple angles, focusing on the teaching and learning of children from two years of age to the early years of school. The editors and contributors examine the STEAM versus STEM question from multiple angles, providing helpful frameworks for parents, teachers, and higher education institutions. The chapters provide practical suggestions of ways to support young children's inquiry learning, drawing on pedagogy and research from around the world. This book will be of interest to scholars of STEAM education, early childhood educators, students of early childhood education, and parents of young children.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 565g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 210 x 148 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783030656232\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1st ed. 2021\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44102938394874,"sku":"9783030656232","price":119.55,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1646401578472_book.jpg?v=1646994893","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/embedding-steam-in-early-childhood-education-and-care-9783030656232","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
