“…This study explored students' scores from the TEL assessment on the NAEP website as they related to specific uses of digital technologies both in and out of the classroom. O'Dwyer et al ( 2005) noted the importance of using a subscale test score when researching standardized assessments in order to more closely align the data to specific instrument variables; therefore only the ICT scaled score was used as it included "...computers and software learning tools...and other technologies for accessing, creating, and communicating information and for facilitating creative expression" (Firman et al, 2015). The selected variables measured the frequency of students' ICT use of digital media, presentations, and spreadsheets for school work and personal projects.…”

This study presented a secondary analysis of the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) dataset. The paper examined the impact of eighth grade students’ specific digital product creation on their Technology & Engineering Literacy ICT scores. In order to gain a better understanding of the impact of computer use technology achievement of eighth-grade students, this study used a quantitative descriptive research design to analyze secondary data extracted from the 2018 NAEP data set. The findings include (1) using computers to create, edit, or organize digital media both for school work and activities beyond school increased overall ICT scores. (2) The average score of students who used computers to create presentations in school increased while those who did this activity after school time saw a decrease in scores. (3) Students who reported that they create spreadsheets mostly saw a decrease in their average ICT score no matter the frequency or purpose for the activity. These findings may indicate that there is an ideal frequency for digital product creation in school, but that these types of activities may not be indicative of real-world use which is how students are assessed.

“…Whereas, each country is required to prepare qualified and globally competitive human resource. Qualified human resource is obtained through qualified learning process which builds students' thinking ability to overcome a problem along with the era development [5]. Curriculum 2013 that is currently implemented in Indonesia has been in line with the need of 21 st skill and industry revolution 4.0 [6].…”

“…Designing and testing, completing and finding a solution to produce a perfect one is an engineer's work [6]. Additionally, [5] it is mentioned that engineering is a designing or creation process, while technology is the product of the process. In the National Assessment and Educational Progress (NAEP) 2014, it's known that the assessment target of technology and engineering literacy is divided into three main connecting things, such as Technology and Society, Design and Systems, and Information and Communication Technology.…”

Job opportunities in the 21 st century require candidates to have skill on critical problem solving, create a creative solution and involve technology and information. Literacy of technology and engineering are important to be emphasized on students so it can prepare them to compete globally and are able to solve 21 st century issues. This research is aimed to describe initial technological and engineering literacy of students of SMP N 6 Purworejo. This research's type is descriptive analysis. Sampling technique which is utilized is random sampling. The populations are students at grade IX of SMP N 6 Purworejo. The data is obtained from test instruments of technology and engineering literacy. The validity and reliability of test instrument are qualitatively analyzed by using Quest application. The score of reliability and estimate is 0.77 which means the test instrument has high reliability. This preliminary research result indicates that 3.1% of students are included in a very poor category, 25% poor category, 34.37% acceptable category, 31.25% good category, and 6.25% very good category. Meanwhile, result of technology and engineering of students for each indicator is divided into 3 categories, which are three indicators indicate low category, one indicator is very low and the other is moderate. A learning which involves design and technique process should be attuned to improve students' critical thinking and problem solving skill. Besides, natural science learning by involving real experience on principles of technology will make students to literate in technology and engineering.

“…Then, the low quality of Indonesian education has been caused by the educator quality (Priscilla, 2019), the student interest, the educational supporting facilities and the curriculum implementation that has not paid attention to the local wisdom among the Indonesian people. Not to mention, the problems of human resources quality and quantity has not been solved by the implementation of 2013 Curriculum especially if the implementation of the curriculum does not put high priority on the cognitive, affective and psychomotor aspects in accordance to the demands of the employment in the 21 st Century, which has been manifested in the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematic)-based education (Firman, Rustaman, & Suwarma, 2015).…”

The objective of the study is to describe the effectiveness and the fitness of the STEM-Integrated encyclopaedia as the enrichment for the learning materials of Temperature and Heat among Grade V Students in the elementary school degree. Concerning the objective of the study, the nature of the study is Research and Development (R&D). In conducting the R&D, the ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation and Evaluation) model had been adopted. In overall, the Analysis was directed toward the problems that had occurred among the students, the Design was related to the media that should be presented to the students, the Development referred to the model of the media that had been in accordance to the needs of the students, the Implemented was related to the Development that had been performed and the Evaluation was directed toward the media that had been developed. In gathering the data, several techniques had been applied namely interview, test administration and questionnaire distribution. Then, in analysing the data both of the qualitative and the quantitative approach had been adopted. Furthermore, in testing the hypothesis, the paired t-test had been administrated to identify the results of the effectiveness of the study. Based on the results of the assessment by the media validator, the material validator and the learning validator, it might be concluded that the STEM-integrated encyclopaedia has been fit for the implementation of the learning process among the Grade V students within the elementary school degree. In the same time, the results of the test show that the effectiveness of the STEM-integrated encyclopaedia has been significant since in the conduct of the hypothesis test (t-test) using the paired t-test it is found that the t-count (10.325) > the t-table (2.048). Besides, it is also found that the significance (p-value) has been 0.000, which is lower than the α 5.00% (0.0000 < 0.050) from the results of the comparison between the pre-test and the post-test. Therefore, the use of the STEM-integrated encyclopaedia has been fit for implementation in the elementary school degree.
