Abstract |
This research aimed to study of status quo and needs for developing STEM
education curriculum to enhance creative problem solving competency. Methodology
includes in-depth interviews and focus group. Target group were 42 stakeholders, including
of school principals, science, mathematics, technology teachers, leader teachers of STEM
education and students, in 7 schools within Khon Kaen STEM education network. Research
instruments are fieldnotes. Data were analyzed by content analysis. Research result was
summarized by analytic description. Research results found that 1) teachers organized
STEM instruction through STEM club, additional subject, moderate class–more knowledge
activities. Moreover, teachers blended the idea of STEM into teaching in mathematics,
science and technology. For STEM instruction problems, some activities do not conform to
their school context. Additionally, time for organizing STEM activities and budget for
producing learning materials are not enough. 2) Teachers need STEM education curriculum
that appropriate for their school context and conform to students’ daily life. It should be
designed by collaboration of teachers. It should be able to respond to all students with
different abilities. STEM instruction should be focus on students to plan, design,
implement, practice, summarize for solving problem and to classify new knowledge
associating with science, technology, engineering, or mathematics. |
