This is followed by the description of the research conducted in a preschool group, where 24 children aged 6 to 7 years participated. The goal of the research was to determine whether the implementation of STEAM experiments related to art, affects the later involvement of children in art activities. Art-based research was conducted, and the attitudes and opinions of the research participants were presented through qualitative data analysis.</span>

</td></tr><tr><td>Pojam STEAM dolazi iz engleskoga jezika i predstavlja akronim satkan od početnih slova pet područja – science, technology, engineering, art i mathematics. Ovim radom istražuje se STEAM kao odgojno-obrazovni pristup u radu s djecom predškolske dobi koji, između ostaloga, uključuje i područje likovne umjetnosti. Najprije se daje teorijski pregled i obrazloženje kako pojma tako i značenja kratice STEAM. Potom se opisuje istraživanje provedeno u predškolskoj skupini, u kojemu je sudjelovalo 24 djece u dobi od 6 do 7 godina. Cilj istraživanja bio je utvrditi utječe li provođenje STEAM pokusa vezanih za likovnost, na kasniju uključenost djece u likovne aktivnosti. Provedeno je istraživanje temeljeno na umjetnosti te su kvalitativnom analizom podataka prikazani stavovi i mišljenja sudionika istraživanja.
