Re: STEM vs. STEAM

As another interesting tidbit... I went to lookup the origin of STEM, and it turns out that there are a dozen different acronyms for it. Originally, it was METS.

Anyways, while doing so, I noticed one of the other acronyms was STEAM - Science, Technology, Engineering and Applied Mathematics. Not Art.

With the release of STEAMworks, do we know which STEAM acronym FIRST is using? Are they referring to Arts or Applied Mathematics?
