Examination of the Views of Teachers Teaching Science in Primary Education on Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) Education

In this study, the opinions of teachers providing science education about Science-Technology-Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) education approach were examined. The research was carriAed out using the case study pattern. STEM Education Interview Form was used to determine the opinions of teachers who give science education about STEM education. The data of the research were evaluated by the qualitative content analysis method. According to the results of the research, it was understood that the teachers delivering science education did not have difficulty in associating science and mathematics with each other in the integrated science teaching process, which includes science, technology, mathematics and engineering. However, results were obtained indicating that teachers had difficulty in integrating technology and engineering disciplines and designing this education in appropriate science. Suggestions were made in the light of the research results.
