- Abstract
Understanding, recognizing and respecting norms, principles, values, and sociocultural symbols are goals that the representative institutions of society aim to achieve through the active-participatory modeling of all children. Education, as a social action assumed at the level of the school unit, allows the acquisition of a statute and status by each person through his own effort, selfdetermination and commitment. The contemporary educational institutions, under the imperative of the transformations triggered by the technological revolution, are looking for appropriate answers to the challenges of society. An effective response is represented by the STEM educational concept based on the idea of educating students in four fields: science, technology, engineering and mathematics, using a multi-disciplinary and applied approach. The approach of STEM education and transdisciplinarity as a condition for the efficiency of educational action must be seen not only as an opportunity in the current socio-economic conditions, but also as a moral and professional obligation of teachers.
