We are delighted to announce the launch of the STEAM Boosting Soft Skills (STEAM Bo.SS) project’s MOOC, a key outcome designed to support trainers and educators in mastering the innovative STEAM approach.
The STEAM methodology integrates Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics to promote multidisciplinary learning, creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving. This approach is at the heart of the STEAMBOSS project, led by IFOA in collaboration with key partners EDUGEP and Misericordia, all members of the Ulixes network.
What You’ll Gain from the MOOC
This online course is packed with engaging materials, including videos, handouts, and additional resources, helping trainers explore five key areas:

Dive into the core principles and benefits of the STEAM educational methodology. - STEAM by Example
Access practical case studies and examples of STEAM-based activities implemented in partner countries. - Fostering Collaboration between Businesses and Education
