Summary

The study is a randomised controlled trial that investigates the effectiveness of an online app-based STEM programme on improving Hong Kong primary school students' affective, cognitive, and academic outcomes.

Conditions

  • Educational Problems

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

STEM learning

Classes will be randomly assigned to the experimental group and to the control group. As treatment, the experimental group will be assigned to an intervention that uses a STEM blended learning app with gamified videos for content knowledge along with hands-on experiments. The videos are fictitious educational narratives related to the content knowledge and students were asked to "step into the shoes" of the cartoon scientist (a chipmunk) to solve various problems during the stories. The science experiments will be completed with step-by-step video guidance on the app. The control group will be assigned to read the same content on an e-book and receive an arts-and-craft kit for each lesson that is unrelated to the content knowledge.
