In this paper we describe how primary pre-service teachers´ perspectives about STEAM pedagogy evolved through a science and mathematics module. Data collection consisted of pre-service teachers’ assignments through STEM activities, interviews, and questionnaires. Overall, findings support the notion that the program had a positive impact on pre-service teachers’ understanding about STEAM approach.engLesson plansSTEAM educationteacher educationPrimary pre-service teachers’ understanding of STEAM education through lesson planningjournal article
