Point taken. But these days they teach STEAM. Which is a weird way of saying they've gone back to not being STEM. STEM was to focus on the sciency, mathy, technical curricula as opposed to the non-STEM, like art and social things. But to undermine the whole STEM they went and braded regular curricula STEAM curricula so people would think, yeah, it's basically STEM with an "A" in it. Brilliant bastards.



That's not what STEAM is at all. Please actually look up the term before deciding what it means and deriding it (it does deserve derision, but mostly for a terrible rollout and lesson plans that misunderstand it).
