Abstract
The article is devoted to the problem and features of building a model for monitoring a STEAM-oriented educational environment of a general secondary education institution. It is aimed at studying the features of conducting monitoring procedures for a STEAM-oriented educational environment of a general secondary education institution. To achieve the goal of our research, as well as to clarify the problem of determining the features of models, we analyzed scientific articles on the problems of assessing the state and development of a STEAM-oriented educational environment. Methods of systematic and comparative analysis of pedagogical, methodological, and special literature were used; analysis of the pedagogical experience of domestic and foreign scientists in determining the stages, criteria, and indicators of assessing a STEAM-oriented educational environment. The model we formed includes six blocks: target, organizational and content, technological, diagnostic and analytical, prognostic, control, and correction. The result of the monitoring model is the development and implementation of measures to improve the STEAM-oriented educational environment of a general secondary education institution. A plan for implementing model for STEAM-oriented educational environment monitoring in secondary education institutions is proposed, which includes a preparatory stage, the formation of an expert group for data collection and analysis, a diagnostic stage, which may include collecting information on key criteria such as infrastructure, human resources, teacher readiness, student participation, the availability of projects, and the development of recommendations and proposals, which may include the formation of recommendations for school administration and methodological associations, planning internal professional development, and initiating participation in national projects.
