Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of integrated education research conducted in Korea and to propose a meaningful discussion for further research. Among the studies conducted for last five years, the relevant 69 research articles were selected, and 211 effect sizes were calculated. Effect sizes were analyzed with different dependent variables including creativity, problem solving ability, inquiry skills, scientific recognition, attitude, interest, motivation and self-esteem. In addition, effect sizes with different moderating variable, such as samples sizes, characteristics of subjects, class types, core disciplines were compared. The conclusions of this study was that STEAM education had a relatively middle effect size. Finally, researchers discussed the results related with previous results, and provided the implications and suggestion for future studies.
