Abstract The research aim was to develop creativity of grade 5 students through STEM education in electricity. There were 15 students of Grade 5 in Khon Kaen Province in 2020 participated in this study. The action research was implemented to this study with three loops of action research to improve creativity of students. The physics contents consisted of simple circuit, conductor, insulator, switch, connecting battery in a series circuit and a parallel circuit, series and parallel circuit and the motor connection. The fifteen lessons were separated into three loops of actions. Each loop of lessons consisted of three Predict-Observe-Explain (POE) lessons, and a lesson which is an Engineering design process lesson for designing product to improve student’s creativity in electricity. The students were fluent in designing various tasks to solve problems arising from a given classroom situation and had flexibility and elaboration in given reasons in selecting the materials to create the works. At the last lesson of the each action loops the data was collected to show how students improved their creativity. The student’s work and their presentation were evaluated by the creativity’s rubric scores in four dimensions of Originality, Fluency, Flexibility and Elaboration. The results show that student’s creativity were improve by STEM education in electricity. All dimension of creativity which are originality, fluency, flexibility and elaboration were improved from loop 1 to loop 3 of action research.

Engineering Design Process

In action research (AR), the researcher participates ‘in’ the actions in an organisation, while simultaneously reflecting ‘on’ the actions to promote learning for both the organisation and the researchers. This paper demonstrates a longitudinal AR collaboration with an electronics manufacturing firm where the goal was to improve the organisation’s ability to integrate human factors (HF) proactively into their design processes. During the three-year collaboration, all meetings, workshops, interviews and reflections were digitally recorded and qualitatively analysed to inform new ‘actions’. By the end of the collaboration, HF tools with targets and sign-off by the HF specialist were integrated into several stages of the design process, and engineers were held accountable for meeting the HF targets. We conclude that the AR approach combined with targeting multiple initiatives at different stages of the design process helped the organisation find ways to integrate HF into their processes in a sustainable way. Practitioner Summary: Researchers acted as a catalyst to help integrate HF into the engineering design process in a sustainable way. This paper demonstrates how an AR approach can help achieve HF integration, the benefits of using a reflective stance and one method for reporting an AR study.
