Curriculums for STEM education programs have been successfully implemented into numerous school systems for many years. Recently, the integration of arts education into such programs has proven to be significantly beneficial to students, resulting in a new method of teaching including science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics. "Cases on STEAM Education in Practice" is an essential research publication for the latest scholarly information on curriculum development, instructional design, and educational benefits of STEAM learning initiatives. Featuring coverage on a range of topics including fine arts, differentiated instruction, and student engagement, this book is ideally designed for academicians, researchers, and professionals seeking current research on the implementation of STEAM education.
