Educational outcomes in Kuwait have lagged behind those of much of the world. This problem is compounded by Kuwaiti educators' struggle to introduce core math and science concepts to young learners. Starting from the premise that STEAM-oriented education will make these concepts more accessible, this study seeks to demonstrate the potential effectiveness of teacher training programs that emphasize the use of STEAM activities. Using surveys, classroom observations, and direct interviews with recipients of STEAM-oriented training, the study concludes that such training has a significantly positive effect on teachers' skills of implementing STEAM activities as well as their attitudes toward STEAM. The results are discussed in the context of future measures that could be taken to increase exposure to STEAM concepts and strategies and to improve overall student performance in Kuwait.
