STE(A)M Learning Ecologies: ecosystems to improve science education for everyone

The STE(A)M Learning Ecologies project, funded by the European Union (2023-2025) brought the spotlight on the powerful concept of the STE(A)M Learning Ecology, a science education spatial and temporal learning continuum for learners of all ages.

The STE(A)M Learning Ecologies (SLEs) project project aimed to promote science education as part of local community development and create new STE(A)M-based open schooling local partnerships between formal, non-formal and informal education providers, enterprises, and civil society. The SLEs project also aimed to increase all stakeholders' agency within the learning environment.

Final Outcomes:

• After an extensive design phase to create, implement, and validate the SLEs methodology, the project and its pilot teachers helped create over 109 open schooling-enabled science learning paths for all in learning continuums of formal and informal education settings focusing on inclusiveness.
• Across 16 countries, the SLEs covered a multitude of topics, from environmental literacy, arts and heritage to health and social awareness. The program involved 4052 students, 385 educators, and 149 governmental, civil, and Industry organisations.
