The overarching objective of the SEER project is to provide a set of roadmaps that will pave the way for the policy and institutional changes necessary for the large-scale implementation and mainstreaming of STE(A)M education in Europe.
To achieve this far-reaching goal, the SEER will synthesise the status of STE(A)M Education and evaluate national and international policies to understand which policy settings best support STE(A)M education. This analysis and resulting recommendations will be provided to Ministries of Education and EU policy makers to support policy improvements in Europe.
In addition, STE(A)M initiatives and EU funded projects of all teaching levels will be mapped and evaluated, identifying educational strategies that provide the best outcomes for teachers and students. Combining this mapping exercise with an analysis of the needs of teachers and schools will help identify gaps in European STE(A)M initiatives and guide teachers and schools, and teacher training institutions toward adequate resources.
Using this deep and extensive approach, the SEER will design a set of milestones, trajectories, and strategies for key stakeholders, including policymakers, school decision makers, teachers, and industry partners, to support the uptake of STE(A)M education in Europe and beyond.
