Ecological Making in Intercultural Cooperation trough STEAM
VISION
EMIC-STEAM aims to integrate MAKER educational spaces in schools as an important learning environment for education and sustainable development (ESD) in the field of environmental education, as well as the development of intercultural and foreign language skills. The pedagogical concept to be developed is based on the Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) approach, thus combining the didactics of the foreign language, English, with those of the subjects involved: biology, geography and art.
MAKING
In the EMIC STEAM project, Making is a creative, hands-on approach to learning where students actively engage in developing solutions to real-world challenges. It blends technical, artistic, and social perspectives and encourages learners to prototype, build, test, and reflect—whether through physical creations, digital tools, or mixed formats. Making isn’t just about crafting objects; it’s about fostering critical thinking, collaboration, and problem-solving through purposeful creation. Rooted in the principles of design thinking and project-based learning, Making empowers students to become inventors, designers, and changemakers.
