About STEM lesson structure
The structure of the lesson must follow the three stages of the
student’s activities. In fact, students will do 5 activities:
- Identify the problem
- Research knowledge and propose solutions
- Discuss and select design options
- Fabrication of experimental equipment/models according to the selected
plan
- Present the finished product, adjust if necessary
During the activity, students will experiment with each of their ideas,
using a variety of approaches. When they make a mistake, the teacher
must be the one to guide them to accept the mistake and learn from that
mistake to try again and find the right solution. This is an important
turning point to help build children’s mindset that is not afraid of
failure, willing to be wrong many times to develop themselves.
