Abstract:
The use of new technologies and preparing students for the future is a concept for which the developed countries are working for a long time now. However due to political and social reforms In Pakistan there is little to no attention towards introducing new practices in Pakistani Schools. There is almost no research carried out about STEM education which is so important in today’s era. Lack of new practices in classrooms yield poorly prepare youngsters who are not ready to face the challenges of this century’s economy. This study introduces STEM education to improve elementary school children’s critical thinking and creativity skills. An intervention was applied in summer school in Gujranwala district and at the end of it the impact of STEM education on students’ 21st century skills were measured.
