Examples are the best way to understand a concept and the most important thing when we are giving examples in a concept it must be more connected to the concepts. STEAM education is built for the same reason. It is developed so that a student can get more from the same concept that he or she is studying. There are some institutes that are following this methodology of teaching; Government of India is making it necessary for every institute to follow the guidelines developed under STEAM education. STEAM Varsity is one of the top rated coding tutors in Gurgaon for your kids that are following STEAM education concept building approach.
What is STEAM?
STEAM stands for
- S- "Science" is used in developing study materials, examples of a concept.
- T- "Technology" is used while delivering the same concept to the kid.
- E- "Engineering" is properly framed in the mind of future coders.
- A– "Art" is the most interesting subject for a kid and makes it more connected.
- M- "Mathematics" is the best way to connect with the kid and also important at the same time.
Now the question is what does it mean? This means that this new generation of kids is educated with the help of this best methodology; every concept is designed with the help of these five super powers of concepts. For example suppose your kid is not able to understand a concept then what he or she needs, he or she needs a perfect example of the concept and just suppose these examples are either real life examples or a very example through which they can get it more easily. In STEAM education every concept is built with the help of these five subjects so that it becomes easier to understand it.
Why we need STEAM EDUCATION?
As we all know everything changes with time then how can we expect that the education system will not be changed. The kind of education that was provided 3 decades ago is a lot of changed now. The main reason behind it is change in behavior of kids or you can say change in generation. There is a lot of change in generation and kids now days are grown with machines and tools near them so they are a little bit more talented or sharper in mind in
comparison to the kids three decades ago. So how can anyone expect that same kind of education is enough to guide this new generation too. STEAM education is developed for the same reason. STEAM education in India is introduced for teaching this new generation with new methodology.
How STEAM works?
Let's take an example; suppose there is a problem with how we can create a paper boat. Now we all know that this is a problem related to craft but how we can introduce mathematics in it so that anyone can get it very easily. If I am saying it, take a paper and fold it four times and then fold it two times. Now anyone can understand how I need to handle the paper. So this is how the STEAM education system works in which every concept is taught with the help of these 5 concepts those are science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics.
What are the benefits of STEAM Education?
- Your child is going to be more creative.
- Implementation of ideas is increased.
- Subject knowledge is increased.
- Concept building is started.
- Your kid will get more practical knowledge in comparison to theoretical knowledge.
- Innovative mindset is developed.
- Critical thinking ability is developed.
STEAM Education in Coding
We STEAM Varsity have been teaching coding for decades and we researched that kids were not interested in coding at all with the previous methodology of teaching it. So how can we develop an interest in coding in a kid? The answer is by making it easy and interesting. But again the question is how? Yes STEAM education is used for the same, now the toughest concepts of coding are taught very easily with the help of block building as an art. So for a kid in class 5th or 6th, previously it was very tough to teach them coding as it has very tough concepts but now with the help of STEAM education it is now becoming as easy as making sketches on a drawing sheet. STEAM educators are providing guidance to students so that they can adapt concepts of coding very easily.
Logical and conditional concepts are easily described with the help of block building art. Kids can very easily understand how things are connected and why they are used? So STEAM easily builds concepts in the mind of students. That's why the government is now making it strictly applicable to every institute so that we can get a very useful mind for our country in future.

STEAM Varsity coding for kids regulates STEAM Education in Gurgaon
Parents who are aware of the current education policy are always asking us this question and the answer is YES. We are one of the first institutes who started applying this method of teaching in our institute in Gurgaon. We developed ourselves as STEAM facilitators and we know that the kids in Gurgaon need more attention when they are getting educated in coding. The kind of environment that is present in Gurgaon for a kid in future definitely needs a very sharp attention in concept building and that's why we know the importance of this concept and applied it in every study material.
How the future coders will be beneficiated from it?
If the teaching method is changed, output will also be changed. If we are seeing the teaching methods of coding some decades ago, we will find the reason why coding was a less interesting subject in students; if we are looking at the importance of coding then definitely it needs more attention. So your kid will get beneficiated in the following way:
- He or she need not to study coding with the previous bored method. STEAM educators are using new innovative methods to connect with students and let them understand the concepts accurately.
- Lack of examples were making it more typical and less attractive, now with the help of STEAM education it is removed by STEAM Varsity.
- It is not a theoretical concept anymore, coding is practical as we all know and now it is applied from an early age.
- Block building ways of teaching coding make it easier to understand.
- Now while learning it's not only coding they are learning, they are also developing the skills of critical thinking, logical thinking.
STEAM Education in India
Education is a very important aspect for the economic growth of a country. So it must be well structured; in urban areas people are aware of education and education policy but in rural areas education still needs proper support so that education can be utilized more. The Indian government started STEAM Education in the starting of the decade and made it mandatory for every education institute to follow the guidelines. The major reason behind it is to make education more innovative and useful for the students. STEAM Education is nothing but a new way for guiding students so that they can get more concepts and their knowledge is applicable. So from early 2020 every institute must have STEAM educators who are ready to communicate with STEAM facilitators or ready to be facilitators themselves.
