Since that time, additionalinitiatives have suggested that it might be even more beneficial to integrate the arts into STEMlearning, creating STEAM. Some even argue that it should be pushed even further, addingadditional study of the societal implications of STEAM research and work, further lengtheningthe acronym to STEAMS [2].

For thosedefinitions, we used the most recent publication of basic effectuation information as posted onthe website of the society for effectual action, run by the original researchers 34. The body ofresearch on effectuation is generally consistent and intentional about making use of the originallyproposed definition.Use of the most current work published by the original researchers is appropriate because theoriginal theory developers are actively engaged in continuing to develop the theory 35, and thetheory is in an emergent stage 36. Therefore, we adopted and will operationalize the definition ofeffectuation as
