This research group focuses on research on multidisciplinary teaching and learning, including crafts. STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, Mathematics), its concept and forms of implementation, is a particular research area. The participants of the research group represent the different disciplines of STEAM, as our expertise covers science, technology and engineering, technology education, home economics, arts and crafts and mathematics. The research team includes researchers from different stages of the research career. We conduct research as a team and in collaboration with other stakeholders in both national and international networks.

Currently we are involved in the following international STEAM projects

The Finnish-Uruguayan partnership for fostering STEAM approach in teacher education

Digital learning in STEAM pedagogy for the Equity of Education
