Science Creative Teaching Design for Science Teachers

Abstract

STEM education is an approach for teaching and learning that integrates the content, processes, and skills of mainly in science, technology, engineering and mathematics in facing the 21st-century challenges. Teachers should guide students to problem solving process, plan and design teaching activities that lead to the development of creativity and STEM proficiency. STEM students should be able to answer complex questions, investigate global issues and develop solutions for challenges and real-world problems while applying the rigor of science, technology, engineering and mathematics content in a seamless fashion. Therefore, creativity in teaching science subject is very important to encourage the students interests and engagement in science learning. A primary concern of this Science Creative Teaching Design (SCTD) is that it enables science teacher to plan and produce flexible, practical and feasible lesson plan and conduct teaching and learning. Furthermore, it encourages the teacher become creative as well as the students. Therefore, SCTD was developed from the integration of design thinking and creative thinking tools to facilitate science teachers in teaching activities. It comprises namely as Creo 1 for empathy, Creo 2 for build analogy, Creo 3 for ideation, Creo 4 for synthesis and justification and finally Creo 5 for application of knowledge. Several creative strategies were suggested in these Creo tools based on the literature reviews including role play, showing short videos, forward thinking, problem solving and designed games. It is hope that by using this Creo’s suggested will help the science teacher to plan attractive creative teaching for science teaching.
