碩士 === 國立高雄師範大學 === 工業科技教育學系 === 105 === Based on STEM (Science, Technology, engineering, and mathematic) Curriculum Integration, teachers apply a 6E Learning module (Engage, Explore, Explain, Engineer, Enrich, and Evaluate) during teaching activities for high-grade students in the elementary school. In this learning module, students will design and make a Balloon-Power Car. Then, the researcher evaluates the leaning effects of the students. This research is focused on action research. The participants of this study are fifth-grade students in the elementary school. In this study, teaching data such as worksheet, students’ feedback, interviews and researchers’ reflection are used to analyze the learning effects. The 6E Learning module designed by researcher may develop student’s learning interest, and solve the difficulties during instructor’s teaching process. The result of the study indicates that the STEM integrate courses via the assist of the experts can be implemented. The student’s ability such as knowledge, application and problem solving, can be improved via this STEM integrate course. Researcher’s ability such as plan curriculum, teaching and researching can be improved simultaneously.
