Abstract

This study investigated high school students' attitudes toward Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM). The research employed a pre- and post-test design following the implementation of a Project-Based Integrated STEM Program to examine potential changes in student attitudes. Assessment utilized a STEM attitude scale and a sub-scale measuring 21st-century skills. Data were collected from 10th, 11th and 12th-grade students across various high schools. The pre-test results showed no significant differences in STEM attitudes among students across grade levels, but male students demonstrated a notable improvement in their attitudes toward STEM. However, a comparative analysis between the pre- and post-tests revealed that participation in the program significantly improved students' perceptions of STEM and enhanced their confidence in applying STEM-related skills. These findings highlight the positive impact of project-based learning methods in fostering STEM interest in high schools. The study suggests the critical importance of integrating similar initiatives into the national curriculum to promote long-term engagement in STEM fields.
