Its core principles are reinterpreted to implement unplugged collaborative learning activities to creatively explore sciences, technology and mathematics with special emphasis on the core principles of algorithmic design by presenting recipes in the form of flow diagrams. By presenting the execution of algorithms within a drama-based (theatrical) framework many creative explorations are offered within the so called STEAM education. The adoption of playful activities that put the children’s bodies in motion is well aligned with pedagogical approaches that emphasize embodied knowledge and performance and open up opportunities for deeper personalized learning experiences that promote inclusion of children from different cultural backgrounds.The Cooking STEAM activities employ ideas from the pedagogical methodology of the Theatre in Mathematics – TIM project (project number 2018-1-IT02-KA201- 048139) funded by the Erasmus+ programme. Within the context of the MAKER SCHOOLS: Enhancing Student Creativity and STEM Engagement by Integrating 3D Design and Programming into Secondary School Learning (project number 2020-1-BG01-KA201-079274) funded by the Erasmus+ programme, several tangible 3D objects are designed and printed to facilitate the implementation of Cooking STEAM learning activities and the engagement of participants in the creation of tangible flow diagrams.http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/14th International Conference on Interactive Mobile Communication, Technologies and LearningMoumoutzis_et_al_IMCL 2021_postprint.pdfChania [Greece]Library of TUC2024-12-18application/pdf972.6 kBfree Moumoutzis Nektarios Μουμουτζης Νεκταριος Xanthaki Chara Maragkoudakis Ioannis Μαραγκουδακης Ιωαννης Christodoulakis Stavros Χριστοδουλακης Σταυρος Paneva-Marinova Desislava Pavlova Lilia Lameras Petros Misthou Stavroula Kalmpourtzis George Springer Cooking STEAM Flow diagrams Algorithms
