Students introduce products in a STEM-oriented literature teaching demonstration session

In response to this instruction from the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Education and Training, many teachers have enthusiastically created impressive lessons using the STEM education method. This includes literature, a subject considered to be... the most difficult to have STEM qualities.

Recently, Mr. Tran Ngoc Tuan and Mr. Lai Phat Tai (Literature teachers at Tay Thanh High School, Tan Phu District, Ho Chi Minh City) had a demonstration lesson following the STEM education orientation and left many emotions for teachers and students. The lesson integrated many activities with the following contents: Presenting research results reports; STEM product reports (in the form of informational texts, and on the topic of Vietnamese cultural heritage).

Teacher Tran Ngoc Tuan said: "The goal of the lesson is to help students understand the characteristics of informational texts, know how to apply lesson knowledge to create a text associated with a STEM product that can be applied in daily life. In addition, students also know how to combine interdisciplinary knowledge (computer science, fine arts, physics, culture, medicine, psychology...) in learning literature. Through this lesson, students have more love and awareness to preserve the beauty of national cultural heritage".
