As a nation, education policy is shifting focus to improve competitiveness in technology development and innovation. Laguna Blanca is staying abreast of these changes with a newly minted STEAM program, which will broaden the study of engineering within our current science, technology and mathematics courses. We offer multiple electives with our Middle and Upper school programs that will emphasize critical thinking and problem solving through project based learning. These beginning engineering skills will also be integrated into the Lower School courses. All courses will place emphasis on inquiry-based learning with students developing their own solutions to complex problems through hands-on experiential activities. The learning opportunities posed will focus on real world scenarios, relating to students’ lives and experiences. Technology is integrated into the program from the earliest levels and includes the use of coding, computers, LEGO, robotics, tablets, 3D printers, and Artificial Intelligence.
