AB  - The field of STEM (Science Technology Engineering and Math) education is constrained by the teacher’s interpretation of how to convey the course content to their students. The application of Art is an integral part of STEM education. Art allows teachers to incorporate creativity while engaging students in the classroom. STEAM (Science Technology Engineering Art and Math) is an approach of guiding student dialogue and critical thinking to solve complex problems. A challenge for educators is to implement a fun and interactive way for students to gain interest in the STEM fields. By bridging the gap Work. Study. Play! combines learning modules into an interactive game that introduces the physics behind musical applications. This is done by combining Work; an online learning module assigned by teachers and monitored by parents. Study; an interactive at-home module for students. Play; an in-class or at-home interactive game board. Work. Study. Play! is a website and compatible game board incorporating the physics behind musical instruments providing visually stimulating insight into the STEAM field. The more students are exposed to these concepts the better equipped they are to become leaders in their respective industries. The game allows students to learn in-depth subject matter in the areas of sounds and vibrations of musical instruments, while also providing educators with an easily adaptable learning curriculum that meets the needs of the classroom. The device and service also fulfills the parental needs of monitoring their child's academic program. Work. Study. Play! attracts students, teachers and parents alike combining the three into a mutually satisfying experience. The authors hope to demonstrate the capabilities of this system that use games to bridge the gap between STEAM and fun education.  Through this educational ecosystem, educators are empowered to allow students to gain an interest in technology while providing a competitive game engaging students both inside and outside of the classroom.
