The global economy is changing, with jobs disappearing due to automation and others emerging as a result of technological advances and innovations. This new reality is changing the way students need to learn, connect, interact, and interpret the world around them. The skills developed by students through STEM education — from problem solving and creativity, to teamwork and digital literacy — provide them with the foundation to adapt and thrive in this fast changing world.
This Collection invites research and review articles that provide fresh perspectives on all aspects of STEM teaching, learning, and assessment. We welcome research both empirical and conceptual from all areas of the social and behavioural sciences. Perspectives are encouraged from all geographic regions and learning contexts, including day care, pre-k, kindergarten, primary, elementary, secondary, vocational, higher education, teacher training colleges, and open and distance education.
