Exploring The Construction Of Chemical Subject Content In Middle School Chemistry Textbooks From The Perspective Of STEM

Not only China has paid great attention to engineering and technology education in recent years,but also the western coutries have promoted the development of STEM education,which represents science,technology,engineering and mathematics.STEM Education is closely linked to the knowledge of these subjects,and it wins much attention by the education reformers.As textbook is an important carrier of the curriculum,analyze the chemistry textbook from the STEM perspective can provide the teachers a in-depth understanding of contents of STEM and a reference for the new chemistry textbook.This study method is content analysis.The analysis model is on the basis of summarizing the domestic and foreign literature on STEM education,which includes three dimensions: situation,technical thinking and engineering thinking.We uses the research model to deconstruct and analyze two chemical themes of the three versions of the textbooks.The result shows that Shandong Science and Technology press edition fits the STEM demands.The paper is consist of five parts.The first part is the introduction,including the background,purpose and significanceof the research.The second part summarizes the STEM-related literatures from three aspects,including integrated STEM education,STEM curriculum and STEM teacher preparing.The third part,on the basis of the review,puts forward the theoretical basis of the research,and puts forward the research method and the analysis model.The fourth part,using the analysis model in the third part,analyzes the three versions of the textbook.The fifth part,on the basis of the analysis of textbooks,draw conclusions and make relevant suggestions.
