What benefits can STEM education bring to children?
1. Focus on cultivating children's skills and cognitive abilities in all aspects.

There is a relationship among science, technology, engineering, mathematics and art that supports, complements and develops together. STEM education can never be independent of any part of it. Only in interaction and collision can we achieve deep learning and understanding learning, and can we really cultivate children's skills and understanding in all aspects.

2. Stimulate curiosity and active exploration ability.

Curiosity is not only a child's nature, but also curiosity and creativity. Children's curiosity about things is an urgent desire for knowledge. Only with curiosity can they think of creating something new. Because the child is very interested in this matter, it can arouse him to actively explore the mystery.

3. Pay attention to cultivating innovative consciousness in the process of hands-on practice.

STEM education needs children's hands and brains to pay attention to practice, practice and process, but improving hands-on ability does not mean improving creativity. Based on innovative consciousness, combined with hands-on practice and exploration, children's innate creative potential can be truly awakened.

4. Guide the cooperation between peers and emphasize the ability to solve problems.

In the process of children delving into a new thing or making some innovations and improvements in things, they should not only guide children to think and explore independently, but also be good at communicating or exchanging ideas with others or peers to solve problems together in the process of hands-on.
