Education Innovation Happens Here

STEAM Education Centre has delivered engaging school workshops for more than twenty thousand students and teachers since 2016. ​Our workshops for K-12 are hands-on, connected to the Ontario curriculum learning goals, and complimented by our extensive library of traditional hand-tools and emerging classroom technologies for students to access.
​
From Specialist High Skill Major (SHSM) workshops to iSTEAM with Indigenous schools, our school programs incorporate design thinking, important 21st century competencies, and real world applications of learning while having a lot of fun.

Supporting Educators

Traditional classroom teaching and learning is increasingly challenged as more students require flexible learning arrangements and emphasis on future skill development changes. We work closely with teachers to create dynamic student and/or teacher oriented workshops aligned with the Ontario curriculum to meet specific learning objectives, including training with makerspace tools and incorporating techniques into classroom or virtual activities.

The STEAM Centre has provided me inspiration, encouragement and confidence, bridging the technology gap between my education and my interests. STEAM Centre provided me opportunities that simply weren't available at my high school. Marks are vitally important, but many universities are looking for more.
