Introduction

Inrecentyears,withtherapiddevelopmentofscienceandtechnologyandthegrowingdemandforinnovativetalentsintheglobalmarket,STEMeducationhasbeengainingincreasingattentionandrecognitionworldwide.ManycountriesandregionshaveformulatedrelevantpoliciesandimplementedvariousmeasurestopromoteSTEMeducation.Asbothaneducationalphilosophyandanapproach,STEMeducationaimstocultivatestudents'integratedandinnovativethinkingabilities,practicalskills,andscientificliteracy,whichisessentialfortheirfuturestudy,work,andlife.However,inChina,STEMeducationisstillinitsinfancy,anditsimplementationremainsasignificantchallenge.Moreover,thereisagapbetweenthetheoryofSTEMeducationanditspracticalapplicationinschools,especiallyintermsoftalentcultivation.Toaddressthesechallenges,thisstudyproposesaSTEM-basedtalenttrainingmodelforjuniorandseniorhighschoolstudents.Themodelaimstopromotethedevelopmentofgiftedstudentsandtoenhancetheiroverallcompetitivenessinthefuture.

Background

ThecurrenteducationsysteminChinaemphasizestheimpartingofknowledge,withrelativelylessemphasisonskilltrainingandcompetencedevelopment.Thisapproachhasresultedinasignificantgapbetweenthetheoreticalknowledgeandpracticalapplicationofstudents.Inrecentyears,theChinesegovernmenthasissuedaseriesofpoliciestopromoteinnovationandentrepreneurshipeducationinschools.However,mostofthesemeasuresfocusonthecultivationofgeneralstudents'abilities,andthereisalackoftargetedtrainingprogramsforgiftedstudentsintermsofSTEMeducation.Giftedstudentshaveauniquesetoflearningcharacteristicsandspecialneeds.Theyrequiremorechallengingandstimulatinglearningenvironmentsandopportunitiesforcreativityandinnovation.Thus,thecurrenteducationalsystemneedstoplacemoreemphasisonthedevelopmentofhigh-abilitystudents.

ProposedModel

TheSTEM-basedtalenttrainingmodelforjuniorandseniorhighschoolstudentsaimstointegratethecurriculumofScience,Technology,Engineering,andMathematics.Itincorporatesfourcomponents,namelySTEMPractice,STEMInnovation,STEMEntrepreneurship,andHolisticDevelopment.

STEMPractice:ThiscomponentaimstoprovidestudentswithasolidfoundationofknowledgeandskillsinSTEMdisciplines.Throughthedesignofthecurriculumandteachingmethods,studentsacquiretheabilitytomonitor,understand,andapplyscientificknowledgeandscientificthinking.TheSTEMPracticecomponentincludeshands-onactivities,laboratoryexperiments,fieldtrips,andcasestudiestoencouragestudentstoexploreanddiscovertheworldaroundthem.

STEMInnovation:Thiscomponentfocusesonfosteringstudents'creativityandinnovativethinkingskills.Studentshavetheopportunitytoworkonreal-worldproblemsandchallengesusingtheknowledgeandskillslearnedintheSTEMPracticecomponent.Throughthedesignandexecutionofauthenticprojects,studentsdeveloptheircriticalthinking,problem-solving,anddecision-makingabilities.

STEMEntrepreneurship:Thiscomponentaimstopromotestudents'entrepreneurialspiritandcultivatetheirentrepreneurialabilities.Thecomponentisbasedonthebeliefthatthecreationandapplicationofscientificandtechnologicalknowledgeareinseparablefromentrepreneurship.Inthiscomponent,studentslearnaboutinnovation,designthinking,andprojectmanagement,andtheyhavetheopportunitytoworkinteams,developprototypes,andpitchtheirinnovativeideas.

HolisticDevelopment:Thiscomponentemphasizesthedevelopmentofstudents'softskills,suchascommunication,teamwork,leadership,andculturalawareness.Thecomponentaimstohelpstudentsrecognizeandengagewithvariousperspectives,cultures,andcommunities.Throughthiscomponent,studentslearnaboutethics,socialresponsibility,andtheimportanceofsustainabilityinthecontextofSTEM.

Conclusion

Inconclusion,basedontheprinciplesandgoalsofSTEMeducation,thisstudyproposesaSTEM-basedtalenttrainingmodelforjuniorandseniorhighschoolstudents.Theproposedmodelaimstocultivatestudents'comprehensiveandpracticalabilities,includingtheirknowledge,skills,attitudes,andvalues.It
