“…Integrated STEM education programs apply equal attention to the objectives of the STEM fields. Previous studies showed that the integrated STEM learning has the potential to prepare competitive future workforce with the 21 st -century skills and positive impacts towards students' interest and achievement [18]. However, STEM faced huge challenges to strengthen the effectiveness of its implementation in education.…”

STEM is integrating four specific disciplines area (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) into interconnected learning process based on practical applications. This study aims to gain several ways of advancing students' creative thinking skills through STEM education based on the learning process. This study uses a literature review method with big data from several online database resources. There are several necessary skills needed for employees to face the tighten workforce competition. Creative thinking skills are very crucial for the worker to increase their productivity in the revolution industry 4.0 era. The lecturer needs to design a curriculum with the newest techniques that are ensuring all components of STEM are met with student's' creative thinking skills development. Finally, some suggestions were proposed for future research on reforming and delivering the STEM content to enhance vocational students' creative thinking skills.

The existence of the 4 th industrial revolution will force schools to be more creative in presenting the skills that will be faced by job seekers along with the rapid competition in the world of work. This study aims to gain several ways of advancing students' self-efficacy through STEM education based on the learning process. This study uses a literature review method with big data from several online database resources. There are several techniques that a lecturer can use to deliver STEM in the good direction. The lecturer can enrich the students' prestigious skills by creating out of class learning, display curiosity and shows them something that very interesting, encourage students to ask to develop problem-solving skills, and it very uses full using real-life experiences. On the other hand, self-efficacy was not developed automatically. It needs some treatment for advance students selfefficacy. Finally, some suggestions were proposed for future research on reforming and improving vocational students' selfefficacy.

“…On the other hand, STEM education is newly implemented in Malaysia education system in the year of 2017, there is a limited number of researches to study the effectiveness of appropriate instructional design to enhance students' conceptual understanding of chemical bonding concepts. Besides, there is also a lack of research aiming on specific approaches of integrated STEM education [21]. One of the greatest challenges for Malaysian science education is the insufficient guidelines or models for science educators to apply STEM approaches in the classroom in a correct way [22].…”

The deterioration of Malaysian students’ achievements in Science subject is an alarming issue. Malaysian students’ enrolment in STEM at upper secondary schools has gradually declining. Effective STEM teaching materials developed by using appropriate teaching approach for improving students’ achievements in STEM field, particularly Chemistry is urgently needed. Thus, the purpose of this study was to determine the effects of the teaching module towards students’ achievements on chemical bonding. Pro-iCo Module was designed and developed by the researcher based on STEM-5E learning cycle constructivist approach via ADDIE model. This study used a One-Group Pretest-Posttest Design.. A total of 30 form four Chemistry students were selected purposively from one of the secondary schools in Johor Bahru. The instruments used in this research were (i) Pro-iCo Module Evaluation Questionnaire (Pro-iCo MEQ) (ii) Chemical Bonding Achievement Test (CBAT). Descriptive analysis and inferential analysis (Paired Sample Ttest) were used in analysing the data collected. Based on the findings of the Pro-iCo MEQ, the teachers agreed that the Pro-iCo Module has fulfilled all the criteria of evaluation aspects. The findings of CBAT revealed a significant difference (with the value of 22.57) between the mean of pre-test score and the mean of post-test score. The statistical analysis of Paired Sample T-test indicated that students scored significantly higher (p < 0.05) in the post-test than in the pre-test. It can be concluded that the implementation of Pro-iCo Module has significant positive impact on students achievements in chemical bonding. Hence, Pro-iCo Module could be used as an appropriate teaching module by teachers in implementing STEM approach at schools for enhancing students’ achievement in chemistry.
