Abstract

This chapter explores how the elements of responsive and responsible learning were adopted in the first STEM education classroom through collaborative teaching with external experts in a public university in Malaysia. The objectives for the introduction of the course were to enable students to apply the knowledge of mathematical and pedagogical aspects in the teaching of science and mathematics to solve problems in a scientific and systematic manner and to demonstrate the ability to seek new knowledge independently. Three class projects involving collaborators fulfilled 8 weeks of lectures. These included Training of Trainers (ToT), Green Energy Project – Solar Panel and the University Centre for Innovative Delivery and Learning Development (CIDL) focused on Internet of Things (IoT) content. Collaborative teaching in the STEM education classroom has successfully served the specific technical requirements of industry using the design-thinking framework into the university classroom setting.
