Building competencies for performing experiments in humanities sciences using ICT – the link between real sciences and humanities (the ST(R)E(A)M concept)

Abstract

In the context of modern education, integrating information and communication technologies (ICT) into the learning process opens new perspectives for developing 21st-century skills. This article examines the formation of competencies for conducting experiments in the socio-humanistic sciences through an approach based on the ST(R)E(A)M concept, which integrates real-world disciplines (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) with the humanities. The role of socio-humanistic experiments is highlighted, as they leverage ICT to enable the collection and analysis of qualitative and quantitative data in diverse educational and social contexts. The study emphasizes the connection between scientific methods specific to real-world disciplines and the interpretive approaches characteristic of the humanities, promoting transdisciplinary learning.
