摘要

STEM education has been attracting attention in Japan, but there are few methods to measure its effectiveness. In this study, we developed a scale to clarify the relationship between interest in problem solving and using the concepts and skills of each subject. We developed a scale of awareness of problem-solving skills in STEM education for third-year public school students. which consists of four factors: self-perception of problem-solving skills, interest in technological problem solving, interest in scientific problem solving, and interest in mathematical problem solving. The reliability of the scale was also confirmed by the results of the analysis.

STEM教育在日本廣受重視，但評估其有效程度的方法卻為數不多。在本研究中，我們發展量表來釐清對問題解決的興趣與對使用各科目概念和技巧兩者之間的關係。我們為公立學校三年級學生發展了對STEM教育中的問題解決能力的知覺量表，量表包括四個因素：針對問題解決技巧的自我知覺、解決科技問題的興趣、解決科學問題的興趣、解決數學問題的興趣。量表的信度亦得到分析結果證實。
