Bridging Horizons: Exploring STEM Students’ Perspectives on Service-Learning and Storytelling Activities for Community Engagement and Gender Equality

“…The connection between the storytelling approach and the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) approach lies in how storytelling can enhance engagement, understanding, and retention of STEM concepts among students. Storytelling in STEM education serves as a powerful pedagogical tool that makes complex scientific information more approachable, relatable, and meaningful to learners, from early ages [25,26]. By incorporating narratives, anecdotes, and real-world examples into STEM lessons, educators can create educational environments where students develop emotional connections to the subject matter, fostering deeper engagement and interest in STEM disciplines.…”
