| Shrnutí: | Multidisciplinarity is at the core of the STEM approach to learning science, technology, engineering, and mathematics, but this is still misinterpreted, and as a result, different subjects are still taught separately. Mixing them all together presents many challenges to educators. While working on a school agricultural project, many of those challenges were identified and analyzed, and solutions were sought. STEMx, where the “x” stands for extreme multidisciplinarity, implies that all the subjects involved in the educational project must be taught together within the same class, allowing the acquisition of the necessary knowledge and skills while establishing the connection between different sciences using them for solving practical everyday problems. The agricultural project that is used is an automated water drip irrigation unit that takes care of one plant. |
