▶Objectives
The GLOBAL-STEAMSS project aims to transform higher education to better prepare students for the complexities of the modern world, addressing social and environmental challenges. Its future-oriented approach to STEAM and Social Sciences (SS) education integrates technological advancements in AI technologies and data integration systems, sustainability as global competency, a pedagogical model based on open education and inclusivity, and the participation of women into a coherent framework.
▶Activities
- Develop a competencies framework for integrating critical sustainability skills from existing curricula needed for societal advancement into Higher Education Curricula; - Produce and discover AI-driven new, open-access digital learning materials and pathways tailored to the curricula; - Develop an advanced Dataspace platform powered by AI technology to collect, organize, and align OER, and - Creation of Community of Practice around design challenges in citizen science projects
▶Impact
To establish a robust, Europe-wide community of practice encouraging and facilitating the engagement of a diverse range of stakeholders in STEAM and Social Studies—including educators, graduates, students, students in transition, industry professionals, and policymakers—in the co-creation of open educational materials with a sustainability-focused curriculum through a design challenge approach integrated into a Dataspace platform.
