The commencement of STEM methodology was a watershed moment in the realm of education. In the present era, the educational institutions from across the globe are adopting this approach to match the latest pedagogical trends. Keeping these trends in mind, Our STEM Box offers STEM K-12 Lab.

                                                                What is STEM Education?
STEM is an interdisciplinary approach to cover Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics concepts in a cohesive manner.

This is a 360-degree STEM Education solution that caters to the students from grades KG to twelfth at various levels. Let’s have a look at all the features and advantages of this STEM Education Program for Indian schools.


Integration with existing curriculum
The program is designed in such a manner that it seamlessly integrates with already existing school curriculum. Rather than acting as a burden to the students, the program aids in easing up the concepts that are already taught in the class.


Well-structured assessments
The students are assessed on various parameters that resonate with 21st century skills. They don’t have to cram the subjects to score well in these assessments. The performance is evaluated on how well a student observes, investigates and solves problems.


Prepares the students for Industry 4.0
An integral part of fourth industrial revolution, Industry 4.0 encompasses the networking or processes and machines in an industry using information and communication technology. In the near future, the industries across the world will adopt this methodology to automate majority of their processes. The professionals with expertise in technologies involved in this approach would be able to thrive. The STEM K-12 program is designed to prepare the young learners for this industrial revolution.


Progressive learning approach
Various experiments used in these labs often advance the learning outcomes of previous sessions/grades. This progressive learning approach ensures the students don’t find the new concepts intimidating. The understanding of already learned concepts also get reinforced.


Use of STEM kits from global brands
There are plenty of STEM kits, educational bots, and ICT resources for each grade from global brands. These safe-to-use resources are instrumental in hands-on learning. Each concept learned in the class using these kits gets etched in the mind of a student forever.


Manuals for each grade
There are manuals provided for each grade that comprise of numerous experiments (around 24 per grade). These manuals make it easier for the teachers to conduct STEM sessions in a structured manner. Each experiment is designed with 4C method:
Connect – Associating the concept with real life
Construct – Construction of a model using available resources
Contemplate – Reflection of the outcome for better retention
Continue – Extending the scope of learning outside the class
The manual contains this division of experiments for the reference of teachers.


Training by STEM experts
The lab comes with training sessions by educators having years of expertise in STEM Education. These experts keep on evolving their teaching methods by training programs offered by Our STEM Box.


Focus on 21st century skills
After a few classes, you will notice that the students have developed skills like collaboration, proficient communication, problem solving, and critical thinking. The educators also encourage the students to ask numerous questions to develop a curious mindset.
Owing to all these features and benefits, numerous Indian schools have already integrated this STEM Lab in their curriculum. Feel free to connect with us for detailed information on this lab or general STEM Education-related queries.
