Abstract
As STEM-related occupations and innovations continue to proliferate and expand upon the quality of life, it becomes more relevant than ever to ensure that Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) education provides the skills and benefits necessary to maintain growth through future generations. However, STEM education is heavily focused on higher education institutions rather than primary and secondary education institutions, where developmental skills are often trained. This study aims to discuss the intellectual benefits that STEM education provides through the subjects of math and science, where critical thinking and analysis skills are often exercised, as well as the benefits of STEM education in English language development. This study finds that STEM education benefits cognitive skills such as critical thinking, spatial visualization, creating hypotheses, experimentation, and drawing conclusions, as well as language skills such as register, communication, and argumentation. These effects indicate that more attention should be placed on implementing STEM education in non-higher education institutions to maximize the benefits that STEM education can bring.
