The SySTEM 2020 project embraces the idea of connected learning ecologies as the specific “physical settings, social interactions, value systems, and histories” in which learning takes place over time. In the framework of these socio-cultural and spatial settings, learners construct their own STEAM learning ecologies through educational experiences in and across formal and non-formal settings.

We aim to investigate these individual STEAM learning ecologies by the means of large-scale quantitative data collection through quantitative questionnaires. The scope of this report is to provide the sampling strategy, the testing and data collection guidelines that were
developed to inform the survey and the participant selection process.
