Design Thinking:Promoting Deep Integration of STEM Education and Maker Education

STEM教育和创客教育的融合是未来教育变革的重要方向,设计思维作为一种培养学习者创造性解决问题的方法或工具,可以促进两种教育形态的深度融合。文章通过概念分析与案例研究,厘清了STEM教育和创客教育各自的特征属性及异同点,剖析了学校推进过程中存在的现实问题与融合需求,提出设计思维作为创新思维方法,连接并促进STEM教育和创客教育的有效融合,构建了设计思维深度融合模型,并结合实践案例进行应用阐释,提出若干应用方法和策略,以此为各级各类学校开展STEM教育、创客教育、综合实践课程的设计和实施提供思路。

The integration of STEM education and Maker Education is important in future educational reform.As a method or tool to train learners to solve problems creatively,design thinking can be used to promote the deep integration of the two forms of education.Through conceptual analysis and case study,this paper clarifies the characteristics,similarities and differences of STEM Education and Maker Education,analyzes the practical problems and integration needs in the process of school promotion,proposes design thinking as the innovative thinking method to link and promote the effective integration of STEM education and Maker Education,and constructs a deep integration model of design thinking.Practical cases are applied to explain the application of that model,and some application methods and strategies are put forward to provide ideas for the design and implementation of STEM Education,Maker Education and comprehensive practice curriculum in schools at all levels.
