“…For this reason, the term of STEM education should be taken with caution, since for some authors it is represented as a pedagogical action that prepares students for university engineering courses; others value it as a career path for an engineering profession, while others value it as a component of general education, when trying to improve STEM knowledge in the population [21]. The use of STEM in education involves students working as a team, to focus on problem solving, to increase decision making and creativity, to improve critical thinking and self-esteem, to acquire significant learning, to develop interaction between peers, to enhance self-efficacy, scientific identity and an attitude towards mathematics and science, to develop active learning, to improve reasoning skills, collaboration and the self-regulation of learning [22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38].…”

Technological progress is causing terms such as "STEM", an acronym for Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics, to burst into the educational arena, marking a new era in the application of innovative and motivating teaching and learning processes. The objective of this research is to analyze the trajectory and the transcendence of the "STEM" concept in the educational field, having as reference the reported literature of Web of Science. The methodology applied in this research is based on bibliometrics, analyzing both the performance and the structural and dynamic development of the concept through a co-word analysis. The total number of documents analyzed is 4390. The results show that the scientific community mainly uses English and research papers to present their results. From 2015 onwards, the main lines of research are beginning to be established, which focus on "women" and "science". It can be concluded that the term "STEM" in education is beginning to have a greater incidence and impact on the processes of teaching and learning, especially in the field of science, although there are currently discrepancies between men and women in its use.

“…The engineering discipline is one of the essential parts of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) education [1]. Therefore, many engineering education institutions focus on effective teaching and learning [2]- [5]. Numerous studies have addressed the effectiveness of various classes that aim to cultivate higher-order thinking skills (HOTs) to improve the academic achievement of students [6]- [8].…”

Many studies in engineering education believe that higher-order thinking skills (HOTs) are a fundamental competency for engineering students. Polymer engineering students study and analyze the character and structure of polymer materials and use that knowledge to design innovative new products. However, students might need more applied contexts to creativity and learning motivation in polymer material instruction. This paper is a study to present new-product creativity (NPC) through the engineering design process (EDP) for polymer engineering students. The quasi-experimental design was implemented in the learning activity of the polymer-processing laboratory course. A total of 21 participants were recruited from two groups of students (10 were in the experimental group, and 11 were in the control group) at a university in Thailand. The experimental results showed that the students who learned with NPC-EDP had better HOTs in the polymer-processing laboratory course than those who learned with conventional learning. In addition, the students also showed that they were motivated to learn meaningfully in engineering education.

“…E-learning is a formalized learning framework based on interactive tools (Fahimirad et al, 2018). The use of computers and the Internet forms the key component of e-learning through instruction that can be done in or out of the classes (Davila-Guzman et al, 2019). E-learning can be called a network that enables sharing skills and information (Ikedinachi et al, 2019).…”

The future of modern education and web-based learning is inherently associated with the advancement in modern technologies and computing capacities of new smart machines, such as artificial intelligence (AI). AI is a high-performance computing environment powered by special processors that use cognitive computing for machine learning and data analytics. There are major challenges in online or web-based learning, such as flexibility, student support, classification of teaching, and learning activities. Hence, this paper proposes smart web-based interactive system modeling (SWISM)based on artificial intelligence for teaching and learning. The paper aimed to categorize learners according to their learning skills and discover how to enable learners with machine learning techniques to have appropriate, quality learning objects. Furthermore, local weight, linear regression, and linear regression methods have been introduced to predict the student learning performance in a cloud platform.
