Abstract:

STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics) is an approach that can help provide stimulation to students to increase their creativity. Teachers can design mathematics learning in class by considering the needs of each student. Appropriate and interesting learning media can stimulate students to be able to arouse their imagination, creativity, and artistic expression. The purpose of this study is to classify the implementation of STE(A)M learning based on the level of education, type of learning media, topics, and mathematical abilities to be developed. It uses the method of systematic literature review (SLR), and concludes that STE(A)M learning has been widely applied at the secondary school level, especially in algebra and geometry, and has been proven effective in improving students’ problem-solving abilities.

Keywords: Mathematics learning, STEAM, Teaching, Learning media
