Author(s): Dr. Parma Nand Tripathi

Abstract:

STEM education refers to developing abilities in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. It has become important in modern society since, in the future ten years, 80% of employment will require some level of science and math proficiency. Despite having exceptional talent, India's exam-focused educational approach has traditionally prevented its pupils from developing their creative, problem-solving, managerial, and social abilities. The most significant contributor to people's social mobility in India is thought to be education, particularly in the field of STEM education. In addition, science and technology have long been the foundation of education because they are seen as the means of bringing about development. There are several obstacles that come along with every transformation. It is accurate for STEM education implementation in India. After that, let's discuss the various difficulties India is having implementing STEM education. Infrastructure, and the resources required to build it, is one of the biggest challenges facing STEM education. It’s a fantastic program for a nation's progress. India, the second-most populous nation on earth, nevertheless has a long way to go in terms of STEM education. To provide its future generations with the advantages of STEM education, the political, social, and economic spheres of society must work closely together. India faces many significant obstacles when it comes to offering high-quality STEM education, including the provision of adequate infrastructure, financial resources, appropriate instructional equipment, skilled teachers, and scientific developments. In order to provide high-quality STEM education, India faces a number of significant issues that must be handled at the national level. These include the provision of strong infrastructure, financial resources, appropriate instructional equipment, well-qualified teachers, and breakthroughs in the scientific area.
