Braskén, Mats; Pörn, Ray – LUMAT: International Journal on Math, Science and Technology Education, 2021
Although one of key ideas behind the introduction of STEM (or STEAM) as a unifying concept, is to emphasize the interdisciplinary character of many real world problems, there is a non-trivial educational challenge in exceeding existing subject boundaries and implementing multidisciplinary activities into the classroom. The present case study…
