PENABUR Intercultural School Wins Global STEM Award
“Discover How We Empower Future Innovators!”
Empowering STEM Education Professionals Programme (ESEPP) is an event held by meriSTEM@NIE (National Institute of Education) Singapore to enhance the quality of STEM literacy; build a community of STEM educators worldwide; encourage more pervasive adoption of STEM education in schools located across the globe; and build partnerships between schools, NIE, and industries for STEM education globally.
This year, taking the theme of STEM as culture, the competition was opened to international participants for the first time. The secondary school category was won by PENABUR Intercultural School, which competed against 32 teams from 51 schools.
The STEM lesson plan entitled “Designing a Mini Circular Economy Loop as a School Way of Life”, was constructed for the STEAM learning in grade 7. Students learn about various sensors and how to use and create basic smart parking, composting, and trash-sorting prototypes. Math, science, technology, economics, and art were also included.
