Abstract

Internationally, curricula undergo periodic changes to align the education system with the latest global demands.Careers in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) education play a crucial role in ensuring the success of these changes in school and in cultivating a future workforce that contributes to Malaysia's economy.It is essential to provide equal opportunities and exposure to the latest trends in education.In the last 5 years, there have been several literature reviews has been increased emphasis on designing teaching activities for integrated STEM (iSTEM) learning in elementary education.They investigating various learning of disciplinary concepts infused in integrated STEM in STEM subject and non-STEM subject.In addition, a broad-reaching review on integrated STEM not reaching broad review in five years 2019-2024.This article reports findings from a Systematic Literature Review concerning teaching activities for integrated STEM in elementary education for children aged 7-12 in formal education contexts.To provide context, the article presents systematic literature review findings country of research in the 10 research articles that are included for analysis.Findings from this research suggest that there is still much work to be done to move from scenarios where teaching activities for integrated STEM is claimed but is not evident in activities.Therefore, we suggest educators and researchers to focus on teaching activities for integrated STEM in elementary education through project-based learning that provide opportunities for authentic integrated.
