What is the process for developing a STEM lesson in Vietnam?

According to Subsection 1, Section 4 of Official Dispatch 3089/BGDDT-GDTrH of 2020, the process for developing a STEM lesson in Vietnam is as follows:

Step 1: Select teaching content

Base the selection on the knowledge content of the subject curriculum and related phenomena or processes in nature and society, or technological processes or devices applying this knowledge in practice to select the content of the lesson.

Step 2: Identify issues to be resolved

Identify the issues to be resolved for students to address so that in resolving these issues, students acquire the necessary knowledge and skills taught in the selected curriculum or apply known knowledge and skills to construct the lesson.

Step 3: Develop criteria for products/solutions to issues

Clearly define the criteria for the solution/product, which serves as a crucial basis for proposing scientific hypotheses/solutions to issues/designing product models.

Step 4: Design processes to organize teaching activities.

- The organization process of teaching activities is designed according to active teaching methods and techniques with learning activities encompassing the steps of technical processes.

- Each learning activity is clearly designed in terms of objectives, content, expected learning products students must complete, and ways to organize learning activities. These learning activities may be organized both inside and outside the classroom (at school, at home, and community).

- It is necessary to design online lessons to guide and support students' learning activities outside the classroom.

+ Special focus is given to related activities and follow-up activities at the application level (design, experiment, discussion, and revision) of STEM lesson activities in the program, concentrating on solving practical issues in society, science, and technology.

+ The content of STEM experiential activities can be associated with professional activities related to the STEM field to support the learning process, create interest, motivation for learning, and contribute to career orientation for students.

- The form of organizing STEM experiential activities should be rich and diverse, engaging students in exploration, discovery, and application of knowledge to solve issues in society, science, and technology.

+ The form of organizing STEM experiential activities can be flexible, combining activities within the school (in the form of clubs) and outside the school (exploration of reality).

+ Increase group activities to develop communication and cooperation skills for students, but ensure each student’s responsibilities and products in the group are clearly defined.
