Integrating "Design Thinking" in STEAM Education with "Humanistic Perspective"
Future Learning Theatre (Curated by EdCity)
Overview
Technological knowledge not only enhances our daily lives but also boosts work efficiency and skill development in today’s world. Technology education should extend beyond mere technical training; it should empower students to apply design thinking for problem-solving and foster logical reasoning. This approach aims to ignite curiosity and inspire critical thinking, ultimately increasing students' engagement in their learning journey.
By nurturing a broader humanistic perspective, we can enhance students' understanding of both the humanities and technology. This interconnectedness helps students relate their learning to real-life experiences, encouraging them to approach their studies with a positive mindset and an eagerness to explore the world around them.
This seminar integrates design thinking with technological education and promote a humanistic perspective. The speaker will seamlessly incorporate these strategies into the curriculum of design technology, information technology, visual arts, and relevant elective subjects at the high school level. This approach breaks down disciplinary boundaries through an interdisciplinary STEAM Learning Model.
