ABSTRACT
This study aimed at determining the level of teacher readiness on implementation of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) in Elementary School, Singkawang City, West Kalimantan. This study used quantitative descriptive as the method and a Likert-scale questionnaire as the data collection techniques. The results of the questionnaire data were collected, processed, and categorized based on the percentage range. The results of the data analysis showed that the teacher readiness for the implementation of STEM learning which was related to attitude, emotional, cognitive, and behavior readiness indicated that most teachers were ready to implement STEM learning for children. This research is highly useful for the teachers in preparing student to become professionals in the fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics in which in the 21st-century, student are expected to have those skills. Teachers as educators must be able to create an education that can produce human resources who can build new ideas and also form active communication.
