Designing and organizing STEM education: “Dry hand sanitizer” topic by model 5E in grade 11 organic chemistry
Main Article Content
Abstract
STEM education has been a vital educational trend in the world. Over the past few years, in Vietnam this approach has been practiced widely in the K-12 education to facilitate school students participation in experiential activities and apply knowledge to create products or solve practical problems. In this article, we briefly introduce STEM education and the 5E model to design and organize the topic of "dry hand sanitizing" in grade-11 organic chemistry. We performed the pedagogical experiment by organizing the extracurricular activities at Thien Ho Duong High School, Dong Thap province, and observing their worksheets and learning outputs. The obtained results initially show the efficiency of the proposed method.
