ABSTRACT
STEM education is problem solving, engineering design, and built product-based learning that is interdisciplinary and open-ended. Students apply knowledge from science, engineering, technology, mathematics, and other disciplines to solve problems innovatively in engineering practices, driven by real-world problems and built products. Students cultivate practical thinking, stimulate design thinking, and enable constructive thinking in the activities of solving real-world problems, engineering design and building products, which can achieve the goal of cultivating engineering thinking.
