STEAMSPARK

The project aims to:
• Enhance schools’ capacity to integrate computer science concepts into cross-curricular
STEAM teaching.
• Address the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) through innovative learning approaches.
• Analyse the current state of teaching coding and sustainability in participating countries.
• Expand, adapt, and disseminate a new learning approach that combines computer science
and sustainability education.
• Foster students’ interest and engagement in STEAM subjects.
• Create a European Community of Practice where teachers can collaborate, share resources,
and improve teaching practices.

The project will produce the following outputs and outcomes:
• A report analysing the current state of teaching computer science and sustainability in rural
schools in Ireland, Italy, Spain, Croatia, and Portugal.
• A pedagogical framework combining learning theories and evidence-based practices to
guide the project’s teaching methodology.
• A MOOC combined with synchronous sessions that will form the pilot phase, resulting in a
structured methodology with teaching and learning modules addressing computer science
and the SDGs for teachers.
• The STEAMSPARK Community of Practice, enabling teachers to collaborate and share
knowledge and resources with the wider education community.
