Development of Problem Solving Skills by Integration Learning Following STEM Education

Abstract

The objectives of this research were to development of problem solving skills by integration learning following STEM education. The sample used for experimental group consisted of 33 undergraduate students in the Strategic Information Management course in the 2016 academic year, at Suan Dusit University. The research instruments was the problem solving skills evaluate and problem solving achievement. The data obtained were analyzed by using mean, standard deviation and t-test dependent. The results of the study were as follows: 1) The problem solving skills of experimental sample increased 13.03 %. The comparison of problem solving skills before and after undertaking integration learning following STEM education was different at 0.05 level. Over all problem solving skills after undertaking teaching ( = 8.47) was higher than before teaching  ( = 3.91). 2) The learning achievement in problem solving of experimental sample increased 17.92 %. The comparison of learning achievement in problem solving before and after undertaking integration learning following STEM education was different at significant 0.05. Over all learning achievement in problem solving learning achievement in problem solving after undertaking teaching ( = 13.85) was higher than before teaching ( = 7.58). 3) The correlation between problem solving skills and learning achievement in problem solving were rather medium level (r = 0.41) at significant 0.05.
