Abstract

Interaction and interpenetration of scientific fields promote the concept of transdisciplinarity to play a key role in education. One of the most efficient practices of its implementation is believed to be STEM/STEAM-education which unites Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, Mathematics into the holistic educational process. The purpose of this article is to review international and national research literature devoted to the study of the methodological side of STEM and STEAM education. The authors analyze the background of the appearance and development, current trends, the position and the role of the student and the teacher, external and internal factors that hinder or contribute to the successful introduction of STEM and STEAM education into the educational process in different countries. Based on the conducted analysis an innovative project STEAMTeach is presented as a new educational model of professional development of pre-service teachers.
