Abstract

Background

Science, technology, reading and writing, engineering, art, and mathematics (STREAM) education is an emerging form of STEM/STEAM education. STEM education research focuses on how students acquire knowledge and skills. The potential of reading and writing to effectively support students in STEM education has been the focus of research. Although researchers have noted the role of language, they have not explored it in depth.

Purpose/Hypothesis

This paper presents a systematic review of STREAM education to clarify how reading/writing is integrated with STEM/STEAM education and explores the level of cognitive goals in instruction.

Design/Method

By searching for articles related to STREAM education up to 2021, we coded some important features of STREAM education and highlighted the correlations between two or more features.

Results

(i) STREAM education has developed rapidly in the past 3 years; (ii) Writing appeared in STEM education before reading, and the trend of research is spreading from college to lower school levels; (iii) The combination of reading and writing is better in primary school and is underemphasized in middle school; (iv) The cognitive goals of STREAM education in higher education are slightly higher overall than those before college; (v) Current studies focus on the reflection process of the course, while the main process deserves more attention; and (vi) reading/writing activities in the reflection process achieved the highest levels of cognition than in the entry and main processes.

Conclusion

The integration of language activities (reading and writing) into STREAM education is a trend toward disciplinary integration, which helps develop students' cognition and form knowledge constructs.

将阅读和写作与 STEAM/STEM 相结合:STREAM 教育系统综述
科学、技术、读写、工程、艺术和数学(STREAM)教育是 STEM/STEAM 教育的一种新兴形式。STEM 教育研究的重点是学生如何获取知识和技能。阅读和写作在 STEM 教育中为学生提供有效支持的潜力一直是研究的重点。本文对 STREAM 教育进行了系统综述,以阐明阅读/写作如何与 STEM/STEAM 教育相结合,并探讨教学中认知目标的水平。通过检索 2021 年之前与 STREAM 教育相关的文章,我们对 STREAM 教育的一些重要特征进行了编码,并强调了两个或多个特征之间的相关性。(i) 近三年来,STREAM 教育发展迅速;(ii) STEM 教育中写作先于阅读出现,且研究趋势从大学向低年级蔓延;(iii) 小学阶段阅读与写作结合较好,初中阶段重视不够;(iv) 高等教育中的 STREAM 教育的认知目标总体上略高于大学之前的认知目标;(v) 目前的研究侧重于课程的反思过程,而主要过程更值得关注;(vi) 与入门过程和主要过程相比,反思过程中的阅读/写作活动达到了最高的认知水平。将语言活动(阅读和写作)融入 STREAM 教育是学科整合的趋势,有助于发展学生的认知,形成知识建构。
