Abstract

This paper will focus on the development of the engineering /technology-related STEAM program for elementary students on the basis of the study results that the technology-based STEAM education had a positive effect on the improvement of junior high school students’ attitude towards technology and that STEAM activities improved elementary school students’ scientific research ability and helped them have a positive attitude towards science. Furthermore, the change wil be checked in the elementary school students’ preference to engineering/technology-related jobs by applying the engineering technology-related STEAM program to the students actually, analyze the degree of satisfaction from and that of the interest in the STEAM program, and also check the change in the student’s career interest type frequency based on Holland’s career characteristics type theory.
