Abstract
This study aims to analyze the STEM approach in learning to strengthen the scientific literacy of students. The method used in this research is qualitative research with data collection techniques, namely literature studies. The data collection method is by reading, identifying, and analyzing, then categorizing, classifying, and describing. In this research, the study of relevant journals, articles, are used to find out how to increase students’ science literacy by using STEM in elementary schools. Based on the results of research, the literature study states that the use of STEM-based learning effectively improves the student's science literacy. The results of the research analysis showed that the results of the pretest scores of students had low concept understanding in the experimental class and the control class. After being given treatment, the results of the posttest scores showed a significant increase in the experimental class
Highlights
Law Number 20 of 2003 concerning the National Education System Article 4 paragraph 5 states that education is carried out by developing a culture of reading, writing, and arithmetic for all members of the community (Depdiknas, 2003)
Learning through the integration of STEM can make students better prepared in the STEM field jobs (Brown, et al, 2011), increase interest and achievement in mathematics and science (Stohlmann, et al, 2012)
The result of this study proves that MARassisted STEM-Based in science learning has a positive impact on students' science literacy
Summary
Law Number 20 of 2003 concerning the National Education System Article 4 paragraph 5 states that education is carried out by developing a culture of reading, writing, and arithmetic for all members of the community (Depdiknas, 2003). This article discusses the principles in organizing an educational institution that cultivates reading, writing, and arithmetic (calistung) activities The existence of this principle becomes the basis and guideline for education providers to design learning activities that are oriented towards literacy and numeracy. The importance of literacy and numeracy became one of the topics of discussion at the World Economic Forum in 2015 which discussed the New Vision in Education. This forum sets out 16 skills needed by students in the 21st century both at the primary and secondary education levels. These skills are divided into 3 categories, namely basic literacy, competence, and character quality
