Abstract—The objectives of this research were to
development of problem solving skills and learning achievement
in problem solving by integration learning following STEM
education. The sample used for experimental group consisted of
33 undergraduate students in the Strategic Information
Management course in the 2016 academic year, at Suan Dusit
University. The research instruments was the problem solving
skills evaluate and problem solving achievement. The data
obtained were analyzed by using mean, standard deviation, and
t-test dependent. The results of the study were as follows: 1) the
problem solving skills of experimental sample increased
13.03 %. The comparison of problem solving skills before and
after undertaking integration learning following STEM
education was different at significant 0.05. Over all problem
solving skills after undertaking teaching (X = 8.47) was higher
than before teaching (X = 3.91). 2) The learning achievement
in problem solving of experimental sample increased 17.92 %.
The comparison of learning achievement in problem solving
before and after undertaking integration learning following
STEM education was different at significant 0.05. Over all
learning achievement in problem solving undertaking teaching
(X = 13.85) was higher than before teaching (X = 7.58).
Index Terms—Problem solving skills, STEM education,
higher education, integration learning.
