Stem Innovation On Teaching And Learning

STEM: Innovation on Teaching and Learning

This Research Topic is focused on STEM education: based on this model, several studies have emerged on innovative approaches on teaching and learning. In order to meet the demands of developing students for the 21st century skills and given the appropriate characteristics for this goal of the STEM model, further research is needed on this topic. Being so, it is justified to carry out more research on STEM approaches, such as, with pre-service teachers, in-service teachers and all levels of education. This research topic provides a stimulating and informative variety of research papers that expand and deepen our theoretical understanding on STEM innovations on teaching and learning. Taking into account the demands of developing students for the 21st century skills, in this Research Topic we aim to collect high-quality studies focused on STEM model, related to pre-service teachers, in-service teachers, as well as students of all levels of education. We also intend to cover the largest variety of topics addressing this specific matter, that could help to foster STEM implementation in the classroom, to sharing STEM model education training experiences. Furthermore, we are interested in contributions that provide deepening insights into the challenges and opportunities involved in adopting STEM education in teaching and learning in a sustainable way.

STEM in Science Education and S in STEM

This book presents an international perspective of the influence of cultural issues on STEM reform. Effective STEM education is of considerable importance internationally because there is increase pressure by governments to produce technically skilled people from the compulsory education sectors; people capable of participating actively in the so-called’ knowledge economy’ or knowledge society. An important and distinguishing feature of the book is that it draws upon the empirical experiences and research of the local experts from an extremely diverse cohort across the world.
