“…The literature on STEM education shows that there are traditional reviews (Brown, 2012;Hasanah, 2020;Martín-Páez et al, 2019;Mizell & Brown, 2017;Minichiello et al, 2018) and systematic reviews (Arshad et al, 2021;Ibáñez, & Delgado-Kloos, 2018;Irwanto et al, 2022;Jin, 2021;Kayan-Fadlelmula et al, 2022Li et al, 2020) on this topic. There is also content analysis (Kaya & Ayar, 2020;London, 2018), meta-analysis (Jeong et al, 2019;Wang et al, 2022), and bibliometric analysis (Ha et al, 2020;Marín-Marín et al, 2021;Talan, 2021) studies.…”

This research systematically examines the experimental articles on STEM education (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics education). In this direction, experimental articles with the Social Sciences Citation Index on the Web of Science were analyzed within the scope of research questions, taking into account the guidelines of PRISMA. The research was carried out using the systematic review method. In the first search made in this line, the results listed 17,482 studies. Then, this number was reduced to 34 by applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Finally, the studies were examined in detail, and 12 articles that were not suitable were excluded from the scope. Thus, this research was carried out on 22 articles. In line with research problems, articles were categorized by publication year, country, method, study group and number, data collection tools, data analysis methods, topics covered, and experimental methods. The research results infer that the number of articles increases every year, and Turkey and China are the pioneering countries in this sense. It is noteworthy that mixed methods and quasi-experimental methods are generally preferred in the literature. Contrary to the literature, another result obtained from the research is that teachers are preferred in variable numbers as the study group. Scales, tests, and interviews are the most frequently used measurement tools by researchers. Besides, t-tests and content analysis are used in data analysis. Additionally, various topics are covered in the articles. One of the results obtained from the research is that the effect of STEM education on various skills and achievements is examined more. In line with these results, some suggestions were made by discussing the studies in the literature.

“…The literature review suggests that the number of studies on STEM education has gradually increased (Chine & Larwin, 2022;Marco-Bujosa, 2021;Punzalan, 2022;Razi & Zhou, 2022;Reynders et al, 2020;Talan, 2021;Turner et al al., 2022;Wang et al, 2022). Since studies are generally suitable for the nature of the course, they are carried out in science courses or courses of a similar nature (Ceylan, 2014;Nağaç, 2018;Pekbay, 2017).…”

Today, the need for individuals who follow scientific and technological developments closely and who can adapt to these changes rapidly is increasing. These needs have made it necessary for countries to try various changes, reforms and current approaches required by the age in their education systems. One of these approaches is STEM education, which has frequently been encountered in the national and international literature in recent years. STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) education is an approach that emphasizes the 21st century skills, integrates science, technology, engineering, and mathematics disciplines, and covers formal and informal education at all education levels. In addition, the number of studies on STEM education is increasing daily. This research aims to integrate the 8th-grade science curriculum with STEM education practices and examine the effects of these practices on students’ problem-solving (PS) skills, scientific creativity, and critical thinking dispositions. In this study conducted with quantitative methods, the pretest-posttest control group design of the quasi-experimental method was used. The study group of the research consists of students who took the 8th-grade science course at a private school. Research data were collected from both the classes before and after the experimental study. Descriptive statistics and covariance analysis (ANCOVA) were used in the data analysis. The research results revealed that integrated STEM education applications positively affect students’ problem-solving skills, scientific creativity, and critical thinking dispositions. The collected results were discussed with the studies in the literature, and suggestions were made accordingly.

“…Since it has been observed that more than one sense can be actively used when using this technology, it is assumed that real learning experiences can be made with this technology. Thanks to its features, AR technology has managed to attract attention of learners in all levels of education from preschool to university (Sırakaya & Alsancak Sırakaya, 2020;Talan, 2021). In fact, research shows that AR technology is suitable for all ages (López-Belmonte et al, 2020).…”

“…In addition, AR enables students to learn by doing and increases student engagement in the classroom by making lessons more fun (Giasiranis & Sofos, 2017;Wojciechowski & Cellary, 2013;Yoon et al, 2012). Some studies have shown that AR applications have a positive impact on learning outcomes such as academic success, motivation, attention, attitude, and retention in the learning process (Akçayır & Akçayır, 2017;Batdı & Talan, 2019;Erbas & Demirer, 2019;Fidan & Tuncel, 2019;Talan, 2021). The common finding of various studies is that AR technologies can increase learning motivation, the learning process and effectiveness (Tzima, et al, 2019).…”

The aim of this study is to investigate how the use of augmented reality (AR) applications in educational environments affects students’ achievement levels. The study was carried out through two dimensions; a quantitative and a qualitative aspect. The study was conducted with 7th-grade students in a public secondary school in Turkey as part of a science course. For this purpose, AR applications and activities were implemented that were suitable for the topic of Astronomy. The quasi-experimental model and one of the quantitative research methods were used for the study. As data collection instruments an achievement test and an interview form were made use of. AR activities were used for teaching in the experimental group, while the traditional method for the control group. The quantitative results of the study showed that there was a significant difference in the achievement level of learners in favor of the experimental group. The interviews with the students revealed that the AR applications used in the course were interesting, that they increased interest, desire, and motivation in class, and that they facilitated learning. However, students indicated that the cost of the AR materials was high, that they had difficulty in obtaining the materials, and that they sometimes had technical problems. Another limitation was expressed as that the excess the number of students makes it more difficult to take the advantage of AR activities. Students suggested that lowering the cost of AR materials and using them in other lessons can be more effective in learning environment.
