STEAM in Youth Work – Intermediate-level Training
This intermediate-level training is ideal for you if you have already received introductory STEAM training and/or already use STEAM in your practice. You will complete a range of new STEAM activities and explore how including STEAM can add unique value to youth work and ways of capturing evidence of this. You will reflect on the opportunities and challenges you have faced in using STEAM in your practice with peers.
You will:
- build a mini-robot bug, a playback recorder, an electronic musical instrument using MakeyMakeys, and more
- practice STEAM technical skills that you can pass on to young people such as soldering and circuitry
- gain an understanding of the fundamentals of the science and the confidence to explain it to young people in ways that spark their curiosity
