Welcome to STEAM Digital Agriculture 4.0
GLOBAL GREEN EDUCATION
Hola, my name is Ezequiel Villanueva-Ruiz, I use he series. In my life education has opened global doors for me. My parents were amazing teachers: I learned from my Mom the hard work and perseverance, my Dad showed me the love of nature and agriculture, both technology. They elevate me to protect our Mother Earth Ecosystem.
As an educator and researcher, I see our learners today loving technology, and eager to use these skills to advocate for our environment. For that reason, Global Green Education’s mission is to create leaders by focusing on Advanced AgriTech and STEAM. Through this, we vision cultivating an abundant future on Earth and beyond.
Thank you, muchas gracias!

Advance AgriTech aims to foster the agricultural sector, improving the quantity and quality of food in order to offer a solution to worldwide sustainability challenges. Examples are:
1) Internet of Things (IoT)
2) Robotics
3) Artificial Intelligence (AI)
4) Agri Drones
5) Precision Agriculture
6) Agricultural Biotechnology
7) Big Data & Analytics
8) Controlled Environment Agriculture
9) Regenerative Agriculture
10) Connectivity Technology
Advanced AgriTech resulted from the combination of Digital Agriculture and Precision Agriculture. Digital Agriculture emphasizes the integration of digital technologies, including AI, data analytics, and automation, in agricultural systems. It encompasses the use of various digital tools, platforms, and solutions to improve farming practices, optimize resource allocation, and enhance decision-making processes.
Precision Agriculture refers to the use of advanced technologies, such as sensors, GPS, and data analytics, to optimize and enhance agricultural practices. It focuses on site-specific management and precision application of resources (water, fertilizers, pesticides) to maximize efficiency and minimize waste.
Solutions
Our land, our environment, and our natural resources are stressed to the max. New solutions to steer us in a more positive and sustainable direction are becoming more vital every day.
Teaching is more than imparting knowledge, it is inspiring change
For schools, we have coding robots, design-and-build kits, curriculum, and engaging lessons and activities encourage exploration, imagination, and perseverance.
For companies, solutions include data mining, machine learning, big data, small data, data analytics, geographic information systems (GIS), Global Positioning System (GPS) and GPS auto guidance equipment, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), Internet of Things (IoT), remote sensing, smart sensor networks, variable rate technology, nanotechnology, and robotics.
STEAM is vital to our collective future, and problems of the future can’t be solved in isolation, we must work together.
Controlled Environments: Aquaponics, Greenhouses, Hydroponics, Nurseries, Vertical Farming, Indoor Agriculture
In our society, we are confronted with various challenges, which include climate change, urbanization, population growth, global pandemics, wars, land degradation, limited arable land, food insecurity, and lack of access to fresh food in remote areas.
With 70% of the population projected to live in an urban setting by the year 2050, cities are primed to lead the charge on smart technology to enhance our way of life. This urgent need for increased productivity, coupled with the need for reduced cost, more optimal use of resources, and reduced impact on our environment, has made it imperative to create and adopt new ways of farming.
Controlled environment (CE) plant production technologies, such as Aquaponics, Greenhouses, Hydroponics, Nurseries, Vertical Farming, Indoor Agriculture, offer comprehensive solutions to address these issues.
One of the benefits of CE is its ability to combat the adverse effects of climate change. With extreme weather becoming more frequent, it is increasingly challenging to grow certain high-value crops in open fields. Nevertheless, CE provides an optimal growing environment, independent of weather conditions.
Furthermore, CE production eliminates the need for fertile soil by utilizing soilless media. This approach not only ensures high-quality plant-based food and medicines but also reduces dependency on fertile land. Additionally, CE systems are far more resource-efficient, utilizing water and nutrients more effectively compared to traditional field production methods.
In times of pandemics, conflicts, or natural disasters, localized shortages of fresh produce can arise. However, CE production can alleviate this issue by providing consistent and high-quality plant products directly at the point of consumption. This not only reduces the environmental impact of long-distance transportation but also addresses the needs of large cities and remote regions.
Through our research and partnerships, we’ll bring Denver Metro to the forefront of innovation and help guide other smart cities into green economy and technological growth.

Manufacturing
About 2 million of these workers were in STEM occupations. The manufacturing sector is defined as those industries that use raw materials to produce finished goods. STEM workers are people who work in computer, mathematical, engineering, and life, physical, and social scientist occupations.
STEAM Intelligence
As the U.S. has transformed rapidly to an information-based economy, employment in science, technology, engineering, and math occupations has grown – outpacing overall job growth. Since 1990, STEAM employment has grown 79% (9.7 million to 17.3 million) and computer jobs have seen a whopping 338% increase over the same period. Many Americans say they liked math and science in school, thought about a STEAM career
Service
Black and Hispanic workers continue to be underrepresented in the STEM workforce. Blacks makeup 11% of the U.S. workforce overall but represent 9% of STEAM workers, while Hispanics comprise 16% of the U.S. workforce but only 7% of all STEM workers. And among employed adults with a bachelor’s degree or higher, blacks are just 7% and Hispanics are 6% of the STEAM workforce. That’s why is important to start earlier from Middle and High School the STEAM programming.
Education
An Industry Leader In STEAM Digital Education
In the Rocky Mountains, we are celebrating all things creative, imaginative and exploratory extraordinaire…
It’s Science, Technology, Entrepreneurship Engineering (invention!), Arts and Making Math.
Most importantly you can touch it, interact with it, test it, experiment with it and sometimes you can even take it home! STEAM activities are all experiential – you’ll build, hack, tinker and enjoy!
STEM education research were contributed by authors from the USA, where STEM and STEAM education originated, followed by Australia, Canada, and Taiwan. At the same time, authors in some countries/regions in Asia were becoming very active in the field over the past several years. This trend is consistent with findings from the IJ-STEM review (Li, Froyd, & Wang, 2019). We certainly hope that STEAM education scholarship continues its development across all five continents to support educational initiatives and programs in STEM & STEAM worldwide.

What Can We Do For You?
Robotic Systems
Converging technologies and global competition are driving the explosive growth of robotics development across a variety of industries. Companies today need talent with the right combination of technical and business skills to harness the massive power of automation and integrated robotics solutions.
Automation & Efficiency
Making the management process simple and practical. Combining the best features, Global Green Education is a revolutionary solution developing programs around the STEAM fields seeking application for building automation & efficiency.
Research & Development
Practical teaching can give authentic learning experiences and teach valuable skills for students in the STEAM disciplines. One of the main ways of giving students such experiences, laboratory teaching, is met with many challenges such as budget cuts, teacher shortage, increased use of virtual learning, and currently school lockdowns due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We highlight how at-home do-it-yourself (DIY) experiments include physical interaction with your study organism, system, or technique to give the students a practical, authentic learning experience.
Smart Digital Pedagogy
Laboratory pedagogy is moving away from step-by-step instructions and to, ward inquiry-based learning, expeditionary learning, project-based, and STEAMdeveloping methods for integrating inquiry-based writing (IBW) practices into the laboratory course. After guided instruction, students investigated sequences independently and responded through IBW writing assignments. IBW assignments were structured as condensed versions of a scientific research article, they were also assessed as authentic science and evaluated on clarity and persuasiveness.
Hardware & Software Training
We hope that by outlining the benefits of a practical hardware & software training and at-home, DIY experiment we can inspire more people to design teaching activities in the current remote teaching situation and beyond. By contributing in the STEAM field of biology we enrich the database on experiments to draw inspiration from for these innovate teaching methods
Student Engagement
We observed dramatically improved student engagement and indirect evidence of improved learning outcomes over a similar workshop without IBW and robotics. Based on student feedback, initial discomfort with the writing component abated in favor of an overall positive response and increasing comfort with the high demands of student writing.
R & D
Research & Development
Collaboration has been very common among STEAM education scholars, as that is often how STEM & STEAM education distinguishes itself from the traditional individual disciplinary-based education. Currently, most collaborations occurred among authors from the same country/region, although collaborations across cross-countries/regions were slowly increasing.
Green Intelligence
How can we ensure access to a sufficient supply of healthy, diverse, and safe food for a growing global population – while limiting the impact on the environment and coping with climate change? This is one of the key challenges of this century. And innovation in global agriculture STEAM, Project Based and Expeditionary Learning is a central part of the solution.
Global Green Education transforms the way kids PK–12 and beyond learn with a fun, comprehensive approach to Science, Technology, Entrepreneurship Engineering (invention!), Arts and Making Math (STEAM) STEAM, and computer science.
Machine Learning
Our land, our environment, and natural resources are stressed to the max by climate change & global pandemics. New solutions to steer us in a more positive and sustainable direction are becoming more vital every day.
Food is considered a basic need of humans and can be satisfied through farming. Agriculture fulfills humans’ basic needs and also is considered a source of employment worldwide.
We can classify Agriculture activities into three major areas: pre-harvesting, harvesting, and post-harvesting. Advancement in the area of machine learning has helped improve gains in agriculture.
Machine learning is the current technology that is benefiting farmers to minimize the losses in farming by providing rich recommendations and insights about the crops. The application of machine learning in agriculture allows more efficient and precise farming with less human manpower with high-quality production.
Emerging Technologies
The history of agriculture has seen many innovations over time that can be regarded as four different revolutions. The first one was characterized by hunter-gatherers who started to practice a settled agriculture model. The second agricultural revolution saw the employment of new machines to support the development of activities, such as the seed drill. The third revolution required green innovations to support environmental change in developing countries. Finally, we are currently involved in the fourth agricultural revolution, often called Agriculture 4.0, that aims to foster the agricultural sector, improving the quantity and quality of food in order to offer a solution to worldwide sustainability challenges.
In our interconnected world the ability to live and work together with other people, who may think differently or have a different background to us, is vital for success.
Solutions include robotics, remote sensing, smart sensor networks, data analytics, geographic information systems (GIS), big data, small data, data mining, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), Internet of Things (IoT), nanotechnology, machine learning, variable rate technology, Global Positioning System (GPS) and GPS auto-guidance equipment.
