STEM : A Step For the 21th Century Education

Course description
STEM is an acronym consisting of the initials of the words Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics. Basically, it is a teaching strategy that envisages the training of different branches by an interdisciplinary method rather than a separate one. With the combined use of different disciplines, this program aims to prepare the project, execute the project, solve the problems encountered in the process and produce the product. With a permanent education method provided by STEM education in the schools, students will be trained as individuals who can solve their problems, self-confidence and use their theoretical education in real life.

Follow-up
Trainees will be given soft and hard copies of all lesson materials, which they presenting to their colleagues at their own organizations to generate interest in 21st-century teaching methods with creative thinking. In addition, a mailing list of participants will be created in order to exchange ideas/experiences. Self-evaluation materials will be provided. At the end of the course, the participants will accomplish a questionnaire in order to get detailed feedback on the effectiveness of the training event.
