Thực trạng tổ chức hoạt động giáo dục STEAM cho trẻ mẫu giáo 5-6 tuổi ở một số trường mầm non tại tỉnh Thanh Hóa

Tóm tắt

In early childhood education, applying the STEAM model in organizing educational activities is considered an approach to developing children's thinking and problem-solving abilities. This study uses a mixed-methods approach, surveying 48 preschool teachersin 3 primary schools in Thanh Hoa province (including: Hong Duc Preschool, Thieu Vu Preschool, and Thieu Ngoc Preschool) using a 5-point Likert scale; the data were analyzed using descriptive statistics (Mean, SD) and reliability testing of the scale (Cronbach's Alpha). The results showed that teachers had initially applied STEAM in organizing STEAM educational activities, with the highest rating being “Very Frequent”; ensuring conditions such as facilities, learning materials, and teaching equipment were also rated as "Good". However, teachers still faced difficulties in applying the characteristic methods of STEAM education and had limited skills in implementing and coordinating activities in practice. The survey results will serve as a basis for educational managers to develop solutions to improve the effectiveness of organizing STEAM educational activities in preschools today.
