Thực trạng quản lý hoạt động giáo dục STEM trong trường mầm non ở quận Bình Tân, Thành phố Hồ Chí Minh

Abstract

The article presents the results of a study on the current STEM education management in kindergartens in Binh Tan District, Ho Chi Minh City. The study employed a survey method using questionnaires combined with in-depth interviews with 120 administrators and teachers working at 10 public kindergartens in the area. The findings indicate that the management of STEM education activities has received initial attention and has been implemented in some institutions; however, it remains largely superficial and lacks consistency. Key management aspects such as planning, implementation, monitoring and evaluation, and teacher capacity development still show several limitations. Notably, there is a lack of specific support mechanisms, and teachers often struggle to design integrated STEM activities appropriate to the psychological and developmental characteristics of preschool children. The research results will serve as a basis for proposing measures to improve the management of STEM education activities in these kindergartens.
