The Implementation of Sicence, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) Activities and Its Effect on Student’s Academic Resilience

Abstract

Surfing the Fourth Industrial Revolution is an elegant way to bridging human and machine intelligence through learning systems that support creativity and innovation among students. The students with science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) skills can develop required advance systems by bringing together artificial intelligence and everything in the digital economy. Hence, by actively doing STEM activities, students can explore the extent of their creative and analytical thinking through multimedia as example using Google Classroom. By applying the Social Constructivism Theory as proposed by Vygotsky and Bronfenbrenner's Cultural-Ecological Transactional Theory in the education framework, this study aims to discover the implementation of STEM activities and its effect on students' academic resilience. The data is collected from a group of experts using the fuzzy Delphi technique for the usability of the module that implements STEM activities. It is found that academic resilience can widen the inner strength of the students from four aspects which are social support, social skills, planning priority behaviours and goal efficiencies. In conclusion, by conceptualising digital learning in implementing STEM activities can produce quality students who can compete globally and mastering technological developments.

Computational Thinking in STEM Education among Matriculation Science Students

“…This suggests that the learning outcomes and instructional design favour the development of CT skills in high achieving students. Following the study by Jajuri et al (2019), employing the proper teaching and learning strategies in STEM activities can strengthen students' skills, especially in creativity, problem-solving, and collaborative skills. Therefore, lecturers in matriculation should take the students' academic achievement into account when considering STEM teaching and learning strategies to ensure the development of CT among students.…”

The Fourth Industrial Revolution in the Light of Social and Competence Changes

“…Industry 4.0 poses huge challenges for the education system, which must equip people with the right competences so that those entering the labour market are not only aware of the challenges they encounter, but also face them. Literature analysis indicates that the dominant issue raised by researchers is the preparation of students graduating from technical studies (Jajuri, Hashim, Ali, and Abdullah, 2019;Kondratyev, Galikhanov, Osipov, Shageeva, and Kaybiyaynen, 2019;Laciok et al, 2019;Jeganathan, 2019).…”

Faktor dan Implikasi Daya Tahan dalam Pembelajaran Matematik : Sorotan Literatur Bersistematik

“…Pelajar yang mempunyai daya ketahanan yang tinggi turut mempunyai kemahiran komunikasi dalam matematik yang tinggi. Perkara ini turut disokong oleh Jajuri et al (2019) bahawa revolusi perindustrian era 4.0 menyebabkan perubahan yang pantas perlu dilaksanakan kepada sistem pendidikan dengan memperkenalkan pendidikan STEM (Sains,Teknologi, Kejuruteraan dan Matematik) ke dalam peringkat sekolah lagi. Menerusi aktiviti STEM dapat menambah kekuatan dalaman pelajar dan keyakinan dalam pembelajaran.…”

“…Menerusi aktiviti STEM dapat menambah kekuatan dalaman pelajar dan keyakinan dalam pembelajaran. Keyakinan ini dapat diperolehi melalui kemahiran insaniah, sokongan sosial dan kecekapan dalam merancang aktiviti (Jajuri et al, 2019).…”

“…B Hutauruk et al 2019;Laelasari et al 2019a;Mota et al 2016;Nelwan et al 2018). Lain-lain 3(Gü, 2018;Jajuri et al, 2019;Kooken et al, 2016) Berdasarkan jadual 4 mendapati faktor penyelesaian masalah dengan 11 kajian merupakan faktor tertinggi yang menyumbang kepada daya tahan seseorang individu. Manakala faktor kedua yang mempengaruhi daya tahan pelajar adalah disebabkan pendekatan pengajaran sebanyak 9 kajian.…”
