Abstract

STEM education is aninterdisciplinary educational implementation, and can easily bedesigned viacollaborative efforts of teachers in order to provide students with comprehensive, meaningful and unique learning experiences.For effective STEM practices, the role of teachers is very important. The teachers who are able to handleSTEM education are supposed to integratedifferent disciplines in the teaching/learning situations in the achievement of course objectives. In this sense, awareness and intention of pre-service teachers have a very important placefor their future professional implementations. In this study, pre-service teachers' awarenessof andintention towards STEM education were examined. . The study adopted one group pre-test post-test research design. The participants were composed of 192 pre-service teachersin the departments of Computer Education and Instructional Technology, Science Education, Elementary Mathematics Education and Turkish Language Education in a state university in central Anatolia. The results revealed that the participants who could adopt STEM education, make use of interdisciplinary activities, and who were interested in developing their interdisciplinary knowledge were more aware of STEM and had positive intention towards STEM education.
