Abstract

One of the main features of STEM education is to be oriented towards practical activities and knowledge application to solve real-life problems. However, in the first step of deployment, teachers often use copied problem contexts from abroad. There are many difficulties in approaching, creating excitement and motivation for students when it is not close to their real life. The more relevant the topic to the real local context is, the more important it is to motivate students to participate and at the same time make it easy for teachers to find topics for the STEM educational model. In this study, when choosing a topic associated with a real local context, both teachers and students easily reach and achieve goals with the STEM educational model.

Highlights

  • In the overall general education program draft, STEM education has been focused through the following manifestations: New general education program has full STEM subjects such as Mathematics; Natural Sciences; Technology; Information Technology

  • Expect STEM topics in the integrated subject program at the stage of basic education such as Nature and Society, Science, Informatics and Technology, Natural Science; Orientation for innovating the educational method stated in the general education program by STEM education at the level of integrated teaching by interdisciplinary topics and applying interdisciplinary knowledge to solve practical problems (Ministry of Education and Training, 2019b)

  • AND CONCLUSION the STEM model in teaching hours applying knowledge of Physics associated with the real context brings positive results

Summary

INTRODUCTION

In the overall general education program draft, STEM education has been focused through the following manifestations: New general education program has full STEM subjects such as Mathematics; Natural Sciences; Technology; Information Technology. 2. LITERATURE REVIEW STEM education is an interdisciplinary approach to the learning process in which disciplined academic concepts are integrated with real-world lessons, where students apply the knowledge in science, technology, engineering and maths into specific contexts (Tsupros et al, 2009). Developing STEM education in the context of the 4th industrial revolution is a trend of the time and a strategy of many countries because it will create a competitive advantage when implementing policies, training human resources and making available resources for the policy implementation (Nguyen Thanh Hai, 2019) Unlike developed countries such as the U.S.A., STEM education imported into Vietnam was not derived from educational science research or macro policies on human resources, but from robotics competitions for high school.
