    Internal External Positive Negative Why?

    Uploaded by

    Students tend to refuse learning STEM subjects for several reasons: they perceive science as difficult to understand due to a focus on theory and memorization without meaning; they see science as irrelevant to real life applications and abstract; and the curriculum lacks hands-on experiences and is not attractive. To increase interest, the teaching methods and curriculum design need to make science more applied and experiential.

    Why students tend to refuse to learn STEM subjects?

    Internal == External
    Positive == Negative

    Why?
    1. Students perceive science as difficult subject
    - (Why difficult) – focus on theory: not easy to understand, high degree
    of abstraction, memorizing without understanding, no interest and
    frustrated
    (example: in physics, we learn about force.)
    (evidence: )
    - (Why difficult): algorithmic, involve many steps in learning it, could
    not see the link between the steps, mastery of basic skills before
    proceeding to advanced level knowledge, time-consuming to produce
    impact in learning, lazy
    - (Why difficulty):
    2. Irrelevance of science with real life application
    - (Why irrelevance) – science is not visible in application, abstract,
    3. Curriculum is not attractive
    4. Effect of parents (moneymaking)
    5. Lack of hands-on experience

    How to increase interest in learning stem

    1. Teaching method / pedagogy


    2. Attractive design of science curriculum
