Abstract

In 21st century, problem solving, computational thinking (CT) and collaborative skills are essential skills to achieve. In this study, problem-solving aptitude including five CT dimensions and STEM attitudes were examined through questionnaires. Total of ninety-nine 5th-graders were involved in the interdisciplinary robotic game <STEM Port>, which is designed to enhance the effectiveness of the new learning structure in the context of Great Voyage. It is found that CT dimensions has intersected correlations to the STEM aspects. Interdisciplinary education has positive effects to the students, and the curriculum would lead them to have better performance in the complex problem-solving situations.
