STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, Mathematics) is not exclusive to engineers or students majoring in this field. It is a field in which enthusiasts may not only increase their knowledge and competitiveness, but they can also be linked to what’s blossoming in the world now.

Why does STEAM education matter in our era? What should we know about the field? Let’s hear what the most well-known educators have to say about this field! :)

Joe Moretti, an Apple Distinguished Educator and Worldwide iPad in Education Consultant, emphasizes the importance of focusing on the learning, not the tech. With this concept, he has created a learning environment where students can fully develop their potential.

Adam Bellow, the co-founder of BreakoutEdu, sees the unlimited possibilities that STEAM education can bring to the next generation.
He believes that “creativity is not something that needs to be controlled, but rather unleashed.”

Faith Plunkett, an iSchool Initiative advocate and an educator of the Entertainment Technology Academy, has been teaching her students that they can create everything they want using coding. She encourages everyone to “be a digital creator, not just a consumer.”

Tim Head, a Primary KS2 phase leader & computing coordinator, has been dedicating himself to EdTech to make computing physical and build an understanding of cause and effect. The most important thing in coding education, he believes, is to help students “learn through awe and wonder and thus create unforgettable memories.”

Joe, Adam, Faith, and Tim have chosen to use Tickle App to teach programming. With Tickle App, they can program different devices and make them interact with one another at the same time. As the team behind Tickle App, we are confident that the intuitive design of the user interface may serve as one solid reason why they have chosen Tickle App as their go-to app for coding education courses.

Drag, browse, code.

These four distinguished educators love and support us so much that they volunteered to be Tickle App’s ambassadors. They use Tickle App to help more people access coding concepts and explore the world of STEAM in a rather interesting and innovative way.

Our ambassadors have more things to share. Stay tuned!
