This research begins with observations in schools that the learning process of mathematics has not fully achieved the learning objectives. Students 'interest in learning mathematics is still lacking and students' self-efficacy is still low. During the learning process, unsuitable teaching materials are used to solve these problems. From the existing problems, we need a new breakthrough that requires teachers to create appropriate teaching materials and be able to increase the self-efficacy of students. One of the breakthroughs referred to is by creating teaching materials in the form of Student Worksheets (LKPD) with the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) learning model. This study aims to develop teaching materials in the form of LKPD using the STEM learning model to improve students' self-efficacy.This research is a development research that uses a 4-D development model which consists of 4 stages, namely 1) define, 2) design, 3) development (development) and 4) disseminate (deployment). LKPD developed and validated by several experts. Furthermore, it was tried out to see the practicality and effectiveness of LKPD in class XI Clothing 3 at SMKN 6 Padang. Practicality is seen through the results of the student and teacher response questionnaire analysis. Effectiveness is seen through the results of the final analysis of the student self-efficacy questionnaire.The results of the validation of LKPD by experts found that LKPD with the STEM learning model was categorized as valid. The results of using LKPD by teachers are obtained by practical LKPD, while the use of LKPD by students is obtained by LKPD which are very practical. The effectiveness of LKPD is seen from the results of the final analysis of the student self-efficacy questionnaire, the results of the study show that LKPD with STEM learning models can increase student self-efficacy. Thus, it can be concluded that the LKPD with the STEM learning model developed is valid, practical, and effective.

STEM has long been developed to produce a generation who is ready to face the challenges of the future era. STEM combines four elements (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) in a learning process to make it more meaningful. STEM has been widely applied in developed countries, but in Indonesia, it has received less attention and has not been implemented in the education curriculum. The purpose of this study is to describe teachers' perceptions about the application of STEM, whether it is suitable to be applied in each school where the teacher works, what facilities are needed, and whether it is suitable to be applied during the pandemic Covid-19. This research method used a qualitative descriptive method by distributing open questionnaires to mathematics teachers from various regions. The results showed that most teachers agreed to use STEM in learning mathematics, including its application during the pandemic Covid-19. Besides, many things must be prepared before it can be applied, including the readiness and understanding of teachers regarding STEM, the availability of STEM teaching materials, and the availability of supporting facilities for each student and their ability to use them.

AbstractMathematics is fundamental for many professions, especially science, technology, and engineering. Yet, mathematics is often perceived as difficult and many students leave disciplines in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) as a result, closing doors to scientific, engineering, and technological careers. In this editorial, we argue that how mathematics is traditionally viewed as “given” or “fixed” for students’ expected acquisition alienates many students and needs to be problematized. We propose an alternative approach to changes in mathematics education and show how the alternative also applies to STEM education.
