The STEAM methodology in secondary education has emerged as a necessary response to the demands of the 21st century, facing important challenges especially in the adequate preparation of teachers. The problem lies in identifying a clear conceptual framework that defines the technical and pedagogical competencies necessary for teacher training for the effective implementation of STEAM. This study is justified by the need to improve teacher training in these skills, with the aim of ensuring success in the adoption of the STEAM methodology.
The methodology used in this research is a systematic review of the literature to rigorously collect, evaluate and synthesize the evidence available in previous studies on this topic.
Regarding the results of the review, they indicate a direct relationship between success in the implementation of the style and the mastery of specific competencies by teachers. These competencies include advanced skills in technology, interactive teaching methods, and the ability to integrate creatively multiple disciplines within the curriculum.
It is concluded that teacher training programs should focus on developing these key competencies to improve educational effectiveness in the context of STEAM. By doing so, the benefits of this methodology will increase, promoting a more comprehensive education according to current needs.
