Abstract
While STEM or STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, (Art/Aesthetics), Mathematics) receives the most attention in inter-disciplinary approaches to mathematics, consideration of the wider array of possibilities helps to theorize the overall approach. This enriches the interpretation of how numeracy informs across blurred disciplinary boundaries. It also provides support for a theoretical model that explains how interdisciplinary approaches support conceptual mathematics as well as foundational aspects of numeracy. An improved framework for understanding the connection also clarifies some issues that arise in the field.
