Abstract

The 21st-century learning paradigm requires an education system that not only transmits knowledge but also fosters creativity, critical thinking, collaboration, and problem-solving skills. The STEAM approach—Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics—provides a transdisciplinary framework that supports the integrative development of these skills. This article explores the theoretical foundations, practical applications, and pedagogical benefits of STEAM-based education for nurturing essential competencies in students.
