“…Досліджуючи впровадження STEM [6] у наукових виданнях, ми дійшли висновку, що на сьогодні немає єдиного сприйняття STEM-освіти. Пропонуються тлумачення «навчальна програма» [9; 11; 14], «процес навчання» [15; 16], «творчий простір» [3], «технологія навчання» [18], «спосіб викладання» [17], «освітня стратегія» [13], «реалізація міждисциплінарної освіти» [5] Розглянуто відомі закордонні (Coursera, edX, Udemy) та українські (Prometheus і EdEra) платформи.…”

Modern society functions under the influence of technology, thanks to which all areas of its life are developing. This contributed to the emergence of a new direction in education - the STEM direction, which combines natural sciences (Science), technology (Technology), engineering (Engineering) and mathematics (Mathematics). This direction is focused on applied research in solving specific problems and using at the same time interdisciplinary connections, concepts and methods, which today are followed and formed in natural and technical sciences and mathematics and digital technologies. The study of the STEM direction is not yet provided for in the main curriculum of educational institutions but takes place mostly through webinars, advanced training courses, conferences, etc. And with the introduction of distance learning into the educational process, electronic educational platforms for mastering certain knowledge have become relevant. The purpose of the article is the analysis of educational resources regarding the provision of STEM education or the training of teachers for its implementation. The article examines well-known foreign (Coursera, edX, Udemy) and Ukrainian (Prometheus and EdEra) open educational platforms. The choice of these platforms is based on: popularity, a convenient interface with the ability to filter courses, the presence of courses with the word "STEM" in the title, free access. The considered quantitative analysis of STEM courses on the specified platforms showed that there are no STEM courses on Ukrainian platforms. To get an idea of the capacity (content) of STEM-related courses, we took individual courses on the Coursera, edX, Udemy platforms. Namely, the course "Emprendiendo en STEM" (Coursera), "Advancing Learning Through Evidence-Based STEM Teaching" (edX), "Finding the Art in Engineering - STEM to STEAM" (Udemy). Based on the results of the analysis of courses on open educational platforms related to STEM education, it was concluded that Coursera contains the largest number of courses that mention STEM. At the same time, examples of their completion show that the developers do not offer courses specifically for acquiring STEM education.
