Germany regards mathematics, mother tongue and computers as important goals in primary education. Australia has upgraded the STEM curriculum to a national education strategy. height. span> p>
American Early Childhood Education Association research shows that we should expose children to the basic concepts of STEM such as digital feeling, scientific inquiry, problem solving, and critical thinking as early as possible. Because the earlier the children are in contact, the greater their chances of success in their future studies in STEM-related fields. STEM education has cultivated the four most needed abilities for the future: the ability to innovate, the ability to think independently, the ability to do things, and the ability to solve problems. strong> So, we should encourage and support children’s exploration of the world around them, as well as acquire basic STEM knowledge and skills.
