永續發展教育架構下STREAM跨領域教育之探究

Research on STREAM Interdisciplinary Education Under the Framework of Education for Sustainable Development

STEM 教育從以科學、科技、工程與數學跨學科教育整合架構，逐漸發展成納入設計、美學及人文藝術涵養而形成STEAM 教育，以及爾後納入閱讀寫作元素，彰顯讀寫能力所形成的STREAM 教育。從STEM 到STEAM 再到STREAM 顯示了當前教育開始關注藝術與人文社會科學在STEM 學習中所發揮的作用。STEM 人才在追求經濟繁榮的過程中，也應思考個人對全球永續發展應有的社會責任，人文藝術與 STEM 學科相結合被認為有助於提升學生的參與度、創造力、創新能力、問題解決能力和其他認知優勢，此或許能為STEM教育結合永續發展教育帶來了新契機。本文檢視和歸納先前文獻，闡釋STEM發展至STREAM 教育理念和內涵的轉變，闡釋STREAM 永續教育理念，提出STREAM 永續發展教育與設計思考的結合模式，並援引一課程主題說明永續發展教育架構下STREAM 跨域教育如何實現，及以設計思考作為教學策略為例，最後提出未來展望。

STEM education, which initiately focused on a cross-field framework in education integrating science, technology, engineering, and mathematics, has gradually developed into STEAM by incorporating design, aesthetics, and humanities and arts, that later developed into STREAM by accommodating R (Reading and/or wRiting) elements further, highlighting the importance of literacy. From the stage of STEM to STEAM, then to STREAM, it shows that current education has begun to pay more attention to the role of art, humanities, and social sciences in the study of STEM. However, during pursuing economic prosperity, STEM gifted students should also consider their personal social responsibility for sustainable global development. Such an integration of humanities and arts into STEM now is believed to help enhance students' participation, creativity, innovation ability, problem-solving ability, and other cognitive advantages. This may bring new opportunities for STEM, combined with sustainable development education. After reviewing the past literature, the researchers elaborate the transformation of educational concepts and connotations from STEM to STREAM, as well as the notion of 'STREAM learning to promote SDGs education.' A course with a theme-base to illustrate how STREAM cross-domain education could be realized under the framework of sustainable development education is further recommended, followed by using the design thinking as an example of teaching strategy, with possible prospects proposed for the future.
