WHAT IS
STEM
EDUCATION?
STEM is a curriculum based on the idea of
educating students in four specific disciplines —
Science, Technology, Engineering and
STEM EDUCATION | DPS JANKIPURAM

Mathematics — in an integrated,
interdisciplinary approach to learning that
provides hands-on and relevant learning
experiences for students.

 SCIEN
CE:
The science in STEM typically refers to two
out of the three major branches of science:
STEM EDUCATION | DPS JANKIPURAM

natural sciences, including biology, physics,

and chemistry; and formal sciences, of
which mathematics is an example, along
with logic and statistics.
 TECHNO
LOGY:
Technology is the skills, methods, and processes
used to achieve goals. Technology can be
knowledge of how to do things. Machines are
examples of the embed. This lets others use the
STEM EDUCATION | DPS JANKIPURAM

machines without knowing how they work.

Technological systems use technology by taking
something, changing it, then producing a result.
They are also known as technology systems.
Systems (e.g. machines) applying technology by
taking an input, changing it according to the
system's use, and then producing an outcome are
referred to as technology systems or
technological systems.
 ENGINEE
RING:
Engineering is the application of science and
math to solve problems. Engineers figure out
how things work and find practical uses for
STEM EDUCATION | DPS JANKIPURAM

scientific discoveries. In other words,

Engineering is the use of scientific principles to
design and build machines, structures, and other
items, including bridges, tunnels, roads, vehicles,
and buildings, etc. It mainly involves taking our
scientific understanding of the natural world
and using it to invent, design, and build things to
solve problems and achieve practical goals.
 STEM
MATHEMATICS
VS
Similar to science, mathematics is one STEM category
with classes that will sound familiar, such as algebra,
geometry, and calculus. However, STEM math has two
REGULAR
main differences from the math parents remember.
STEM EDUCATION | DPS JANKIPURAM

MATHEMATICS:
• Kids are learning more advanced mathematics at
younger ages, with introductory algebra and
geometry starting as early as the third grade for
some students, even those not enrolled in a STEM
program.
• It bears little resemblance to math as you may
have learned it. STEM math incorporates concepts
and exercises that apply science, technology, and
engineering to mathematics.
