STEM training is an educational approach that is at the heart of reforms aimed at raising a generation capable of innovation. In line with our country’s prospective objectives, STEM education needs to be defined on the scale of our country and steps should be taken regarding this field.
STEM training is important for raising critical thinkers, increasing science literacy, and training innovative young generations. Innovation is very important for the economy of countries. It should not be forgotten that it is not difficult to predict that the technology that enters all areas of life will require knowledge of mathematics, science and technology for many future jobs. Another importance of the STEM approach is that it will play a key role in the development of today’s advanced technological problems. It is obvious that the combination of these basic trainings with an interdisciplinary approach will enable children to be more successful in the future.
As STEM education is an educational model that keeps interdisciplinary relations at a high level and prioritizes implementation, students have the opportunity to learn and practice academic curricula. In addition, with this training model, students improve their skill skills. STEM Education, these four discipline; science, technology, science and mathematics by building on each other and maximizing the benefits from each other in the real life and technology, producing, holding and marketing aims to grow a generation.
