This event invites delegates to engage with a panel of academics spanning the Sciences and Arts, invited by convenors for STEAM education, Creativities education, Arts-based education and Race and Ethnicity and education research SIGs to explore the following 3 questions:

1. What do we mean by STEAM?

2. What models for interconnectivity between creativity, the arts, sciences does STEAM offer, (if ‘the sciences’ is accepted as a proxy for physics, biology, chemistry, technology, engineering and maths)?

3. What benefits can an intersectional lens in STEAM bring to education?

4. What is the value of STEAM for educators in practice?
