“…The potential to support families' financial demands could be the principal reason for joining STEM fields as indicated in the section of the questionnaire to attain financial stability and meet economic expectations. This provides educators and stakeholders interested in closing the STEM skills gap the motivation behind students' decision to major in STEM for prospect, as such, adequate attention should be paid to the degrees to which the expectation of career outcomes affects students' career, decision-making, creation of positive initiatives, and provision of structures that foster strategics economic balance for STEM hopefuls (Wahba et al, 2022).…”

Shortage of expertise in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) fields have been reported over the years despite financial and social interventions by government through policies and efforts of stakeholders. Remediating the afore stated requires a retrospection into the factors responsible for learners’ choice and career orientation in STEM. As such, this study investigated undergraduates’ choice of STEM field and career orientation employing descriptive research. Undergraduates’ choice of career questionnaire with interpersonal, intrapersonal and career outcome expectancy components formed the instrument with reliability index of 0.86. Purposive sampling was employed in the selection of 200 undergraduates in STEM related disciplines from public universities in Nigeria. Three research questions were raised to evaluate the extent of agreement and variance to each of the factors while three hypotheses were formulated and tested using one-way ANOVA among undergraduates’ choices. From the findings, career outcome expectancy outclassed both interpersonal and intrapersonal factors as reason for career choice. This study recommends that factors considered in this study have the possibility of impacting how institutional policies, educational leaders, and stakeholders determine the kind of support/intervention expected to buffer career choice among STEM students.

“…Additionally, integrating STEAM in learning has a positive correlation with problem-solving skills and reading comprehension (Pahmi et al, 2022). Apart from problem solving skills, creative abilities can also be empowered through STEAM-based learning methods, thus showing how useful the use of STEAM is in improving students' 21st Century skills (Wahba et al, 2022).…”

The lack of optimal empowerment of effective numeracy literacy at the elementary school level can result in less-than-optimal mathematics learning outcomes for students. This research aims to see the effect of implementing digital learning integrated with the STEAM approach on the numeracy literacy of fifth grade elementary school students. This research combines experimental and quantitative methods with Nonequivalent Control Group Design. The sample was 40 students from classes VA and VB at SDN 200304 Padangsidimpuan City who were selected using purposive sampling. The research results show an increase in students' numeracy literacy skills after using STEAM-based learning media. In conclusion, the application of digital learning with the STEAM approach has a positive impact on increasing the numeracy literacy of elementary school students.

“…STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics) is an interdisciplinary educational approach that integrates these subjects to promote holistic and creative learning (Haesen & Van De Put, 2018). In mathematics learning, this approach can help teachers improve students' problem-solving skills, metacognition abilities, and computational thinking skills (Bedar & Al-Shboul, 2020;Diego-Mantecon et al, 2021;Pahmi et al, 2022;Wahba et al, 2022). More than that, applying the STEAM approach can improve the quality of learning and make it more meaningful for students by bridging disciplines to understand-one of them-mathematical concepts (Liliawati et al, 2018).…”

Some previous studies tried to improve students' understanding of the concept of the composition of functions. However, only some research results still examine efforts to increase student understanding of the concept taught online, especially by utilizing the STEAM-integrated Flip Flop learning model. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to analyze the level of effectiveness of the application of the STEAM-integrated Flip Flop model in increasing students' understanding of composition function material taught online. To answer the purpose of the study, the authors compared the model with the Flipped Learning model and the conventional learning model. The quantitative method with a pretest-posttest control group design model is employed in the present study by engaging 90 Indonesian senior high school students. This study finds that the STEAM-integrated Flip Flop model is significantly better at improving students' understanding of the composition of function concepts than conventional models. However, the same result is not found if compared with the Flipped Learning model. Though the average score of the STEAM-integrated Flip Flop model is better than the Flipped Learning model, the difference is not significant. This study also describes the related syntax of the STEAM-integrated Flip Flop model that high school math teachers can use to teach better composition functions online.
