The fusion of science, art and culture
The fusion of science, art and culture
This project has been proudly funded by the Australia- Korea Foundation, and in joint collaboration with the universities below.
Welcome to the Intercultural STEAM project.
This project is also known as “Fusion of Science and Arts”. An integrative digital platform to enhance STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics) teaching and learning exchanges by science teachers.
This project was created to increase cultural awareness between Australian and Korean students, through cultural differences and similarities found in the two countries.
Students are introduced to STEAM, through material designed to explore geographical differences and the effects on seasons, constellations and habitats in each country through the digital platform, Skype.
This program has provided a online platform to create a partnership with science teachers, educators and artist within each country.

Intercultural STEAM Programs and Workshops
Through international collabortion between researchers and education teachers, the International STEAM Project aims to deliver STEAM programs that increases cultural awareness between students from different countries, and make learning more engaging, meaningful and relevant to thier daily lives. We offer enriched STEAM program materials that teachers can implement in their classroom to helps students to explore science concepts in more interdisciplinary ways. In addition to this, we also hold workshops to help build teachers understanding about STEAM, STEAM research intiatives and how they can use the approach in thier teachings.
This project is being funded by the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade to promote cross cultural learning between students and teachers.
