Bütünleşik STEM Eğitimi Modelleri

Eğitim programlarının bütünleştirilmesi fikri, eğitimcilerin gerçek hayat ile ilgili problemlerinin ayrı ayrı disiplinlere bölünemeyeceğini fark etmeleriyle ortaya çıkmıştır. Dewey’in (1931) disiplinlerin ayrık olmaması gerektiğini bilakis gerçek dünya uygulamalarıyla hayata geçirilmesini savunduğu The Way out of Educational Confusion adlı kitabı 1950’li yıllar boyunca sınıflarda bütünleşik programların uygulanmasının önünü açmıştır. Dewey’in laboratuvar okulları ile başlattığı reform ve felsefesinden STEM eğitimi de etkilenmiştir. Programların bütünleştirilmesi, amaçlı bir şekilde farklı konu alanlarından gelen bilgi, beceri ve değerlerin daha anlamlı bir şekilde bir kavram olarak öğretilmesi yaklaşımı ya da öğretme stratejisidir. STEM disiplinlerinin bütünleştirilmesi de bir çeşit öğretim programlarının bütünleşmesidir. Bu nedenle programların bütünleştirilmesine ilişkin yaklaşımların STEM uygulayıcıları tarafından bilinmesi, STEM disiplinlerinin bütünleştirilmesine ilişkin modellerin anlaşılması açısından oldukça önemli olacaktır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, programların bütünleştirilmesine yönelik alan yazın incelemelerinden hareketle teorik düzeyde bütünleşik STEM eğitim modellerini ortaya koymaktır.

Integrated STEM Education Models

The idea of curriculum integration is derived from educators’ awareness that real world problems are not separated into isolate disciplines. Furthermore, Dewey (1931) argued that disciplines should not be separate, but rather bring to life problems through real-world application in his book titled The Way Out of Educational Confusion which paved the way for integrating curriculum in classrooms through the 1950s. STEM education has also affected by Dewey’s laboratory school reform and philosophies. The integration of programs is the approach or teaching strategy of teaching knowledge, skills and values from different subject areas more in a more meaningfully way as a concept. STEM integration in the classroom is also a type of curriculum integration. For this reason, it is very important for STEM practitioners to know the approaches for the integration of programs in terms of understanding models related to the integration of STEM disciplines. The aim of the study is to explore integrated STEM models at theoretical level based on the literature examination about integrated program approaches.
