Abstract

This study conducts a systematic literature review to analyze the impact and perspectives of the STEAM Methodology (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics) in school education. Twenty-five articles from 15 scientific journals were reviewed, using specific inclusion and exclusion criteria. The analysis of the results revealed that the STEAM Methodology promotes student engagement, develops essential skills such as critical thinking and problem-solving, and prepares students for the demands of contemporary society. The integration of emerging technologies, such as virtual reality and artificial intelligence, as well as the emphasis on maker culture and sustainability, were identified as promising trends. However, challenges such as educator training and resource availability continue to be obstacles to effective implementation of the STEAM Methodology. In conclusion, this study highlights the importance of the STEAM Methodology in promoting a more relevant and future-ready education, and provides valuable insights for educators, researchers, and educational policymakers.
