REAL WORLD PROBLEM-SOLVING THROUGH ENGINEERING
Keyword(s):
In education the abbreviation STEM covers the disciplines of science, technology, engineering and mathematics. Therefore, STEM education is the study of these STEM subjects through an integrated approach that offers practical and research learning experience. This article reveals how engineering, the „E“ in STEM , can bring together all four subject areas. The best and most engaging way to achieve this unity is through engineering projects that challenge students to design solutions to real problems. The following work presents good examples of engineering projects in the lower secondary stage of primary education based on problem-based learning and project-based learning.
