S.T.E.A.M. is acronym for Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts, and Mathematics. The idea of emphasizing these subjects in delivering the curriculum has been driven by the business community, with the goal of preparing an agile and competitive workforce. It is important to note that STEAM is not a program, but a philosophy. In the real world, content knowledge is interwoven, layered and sophisticated, not experienced in isolation such as in traditional education settings (separate math time, separate science time, etc.). S.T.E.A.M. skills are vital for success in the 21st century and critical to our collective future. The "Critical C's" of Collaboration, Cooperation, and Communication are emphasized through project-based learning, usually through interdisciplinary (across subjects) activities. This pathway's corresponding CTSO is TSA.
