“…This statement is similar to the theory in Schnittka, 2017 that says STEM begins with a problem and it ends with a discovery on Google as the problem solving. The real STEM implementation based on theories and researches before is distinguished in two ways (Hudha et al, 2019;Johnson et al, 2015). The first one is by focusing one discipline as the concept and other three disciplines are just the applications.…”

“…Achieving success as the main goal of STEM approach needs to involve the teachers, school principals, curriculum organizers, and student participation collaborated as an integral part. Teachers are the most important actors who bring the success of STEM implementation (Dare et al, 2019;Hudha et al, 2019;Kurup et al, 2019). This is the reason why it's important to acknowledge the teachers' perspective, especially on how they implement STEM in daily learning activities.…”

The approach of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) in Indonesia is a new thing in education. The actors in the world of education still continue to adapt to all changes and updates happened all the time. Yet, sometimes the changes are not supported by the improvement in teachers’ knowledge, skill, and readiness. This phenomenological research aims to analyze the elementary teachers' perspective in Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics (STEM) framework implementation in Indonesia. The research is phenomenological research focused on the elementary school teachers’ perspective on STEM implementation. There are 35 teachers of public and private elementary schools with more than a year of service period in Yogyakarta, Indonesia was involved in this research. Data collection was conducted by the interview. The data collecting technique was analyzed with Bogdan and Biklen's analysis models. The analysis results were used to seek the information related to the following aspects: Teachers’ knowledge of STEM, benefits of STEM, steps of STEM implementation, assessment of STEM implementation, and teacher readiness to implement STEM. The results showed that the teachers’ knowledge in the STEM framework was still low and they were not ready to implement STEM for various reasons. This research is expected to be a reference for elementary schools and local government in socializing STEM and to support the STEM implementation in elementary schools.

“…The expansion and the deepening of the literacy in the classroom has assisted the teachers in delivering the students to the actual events and situations so that the students are capable to gain meaning from each life event that they experience individually since children genetically possess extraordinary potentials of development in terms of critical understanding and moral awareness (Dyson & Millward, 2000;Gusarova, 2015;Hudha et al, 2019). Therefore, the school principal should intervene the learning process in order to reinforce the aspects of leading practice and teaching practice (Spillane et al, 2001).…”

The micro strategy of school principal leadership within the implementation of character education for elementary school degree is very decisive for the successful development and empowerment of character values in the elementary school degree. With reference to the statement, the objective of the present study is to map the description that has been related to the micro strategy management of the school principal within the implementation of the character education for the elementary school degree. Thus, the design that has been adopted is the case study and the data for the case study are gathered from the primary sources, namely school principal, teachers, and students, through interview, observation, and documentation study in relation to the leadership management within the implementation of the character education for the elementary school degree. During the study, after the data had been gathered the data were analysed by using the Miles & Huberman Inductive Analysis. The results of the study show that the micro strategy of the school principal leadership in the Sekolah Dasar Negeri 07 Sintang have been focused on four aspects namely: (1) the reinforcement of literacy as the efforts of brightening the students’ life; (2) the learning intervention as the effort of improving the students’ discerning quality and characters; (3) the program of Ant Operation as the efforts of habitualizing the healthy, clean, and environmental-friendly life pattern; and (4) the extracurricular programs as the efforts of developing the students’ special capacities, talents, and interests. In order that the four aspects are kept assured and improved, the elementary school should deepen and expand the concept and the coverage of the literacy, improve the capacity of leading practice and teaching practice through the blended learning model, and improve the capacity of the school management system through the integrative manner in the quality system and service.

“…Therefore, we need an education system that is suitable to be applied in this era of technology and information, one of which is learning STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) (Roberts, 2012). Recent research in the United States shows that skills in the STEM field also provide higher employment expectations than other areas (Casey, 2012;Hudha et al, 2019). Therefore several countries agree to the application of STEM learning, including the Japan (Takebayashi & Kumano, 2018) United States, Korea, Singapore, the United Kingdom (Jho et al, 2016).…”

The purpose of this study is to determine differences in student's learning achievement consisting of learning outcomes and science process skills. This research was conducted in a special school for girls and used two experimental classes, namely experimental class-1 and experimental-2 class. The experimental class-1 is the class applied by PjBL with a brain-based STEAM approach, while the experimental class-2 is a class that uses PjBL with the STEAM approach without brain-based. This research is a quasi-experimental study with a nonequivalent pretest-posttest control group design. The data analysis technique used is the T-test. The brain-based learning activities applied in this study are listening to music, drinking water, doing a brain gym, working on crossword puzzles, and group determination based on the dominance of students' brains. The results showed that the average value of the N-Gain score of student learning outcomes in the experimental class-1 was 80,72. Student learning outcomes experimental class-2 is 73,12. In science process skills, the experimental class-1 students had an average N-Gain score of 72,50, while the experimental-2 class was 60,88. The conclusion is the experimental class 1 students have higher learning achievement than students in the experimental class 2.
