Abstract

Nature of Science (NOS) is a common topic in science education nowadays. However, the fact of the nature of science is not consensus through documents. The assessment of views of nature of science, therefore, was facing multi issues. Especially, in assessing views of NOS in a new context other than from where a validated tool was developed. Researchers and educators should notice certain issues relating to NOS. This paper will provide and discuss how to develop a more appropriate NOS tool to best use for Vietnamese Physics student teachers based on some previously validated tools and the empirical data from the research on the context. Instead of using a provided tool robotically, the paper calls for more critical employment of the tool based on the consideration of social and cultural context. This is not only important in the case of Vietnam but also any new circumstance.

Abstract

STEM education has been emphasized in Vietnam’s new National Education Curriculum to develop students’ capacity and prepare for the modern labor market. However, there are concerns that STEM education may not be suitable for low-budget or rural schools, where the conditions are insufficient. This research aims to investigate the possibility and efficiency of applying STEM education, focused on the Engineering Design Process (EDP), in rural high schools in Vietnam. This paper reported the results of two rounds of research on 96 grade 11 rural students who participated in a STEM project of designing and making electrostatic painting equipment using the EDP as the alignment. The students were from two rural schools of Thap Muoi district, Dong Thap province in Mekong Delta, where education was considered lower than the general standard of Vietnam. Data was collected using qualitative research methods, including teacher’s observation and notes for the whole process, students’ portfolios (worksheets, research diary, diagram and pictures, video clips, messages, and notes), and informal interviews. Triangulations were applied during data collection and analysis. The results showed promising where the students actively engaged in all the stages of the EDP and could accomplish all the requirements. Moreover, compared to round 1, round 2 showed slightly better indicators which means the experience of the teacher is improved the students’ achievement. Therefore, it can be concluded that STEM EDP can be applied with encouraging results even in rural schools.
