Development of Steam-Holistic Learning Teaching Modules

Objective: The purpose of the research is to develop a digital-based holistic-integrative STEAM learning model through a metacognitive approach for optimizing the intelligence abilities of basic education students. Theoretical Framework: A learning strategy is needed in facing the 21st century that is in accordance with metacognition, namely the STEAM learning model. Method: The development procedure in this study follows ten stages that refer to the system approach model according to Dick, Walter; Carey, Lou; Carey. Cognitive development both structurally and constructively contributes to building intelligence at every stage of a child's development. In fact, many teachers ignore the process of building students' intelligence abilities. Results and Discussion: The results of the study obtained the syntax of the digital-based holistic-integrative steam learning model through a metacognitive approach, namely model and show, reflective discussion, learning journal, metacognitive questions, provide constructive feedback, activity-based learning environment engineering, self-questioning, involvement in assessment, evaluate learning outcomes. Originality/Value: The development of teaching modules in student learning activities raises the characters of honesty, mutual cooperation and nationalism. The conclusion of the results of the teaching module states that it is very good, worthy of being used with minor revisions.
