POSSIBILITIES OF TECHNOLOGY PARKS IN THE IMPLEMENTATION OF STEM EDUCATION

The federal program for the creation of technoparks, including children's technoparks «Quantorium» in educational institutions, has created the prerequisites for rethinking the teaching methods of physics and other disciplines. The article examines a modern approach to teaching physics and other natural science, engineering and technical subjects to young people based on the principle of their integration and the implementation of interdisciplinary educational projects. The main aspects of the concept of STEM education (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) are analyzed. As a result of the analysis, the authors conclude about the advantages of implementing the concept of STEM education, which is based on the integration of scientific, technical, engineering, natural sciences (physics, chemistry, biology, etc.) and mathematical disciplines.
