STEM is an integrated, interdisciplinary learning approach in which academic scientific and technical concepts are studied in the context of real life. Within the framework of the installations of this method, the student learns to find solutions to specific problems and create prototypes for new mechanisms, techniques, programs. The article describes a study aimed at establishing the effectiveness of the implementation of the STEM approach in chemistry lessons in 8th grade as part of the updated content of education based on the results of checking the progress of students. The results showed that the use of STEM technologies in chemistry lessons had a positive impact on the academic performance of the participants of the experiment. At the same time, it has been proven that the use of STEM increases the motivation of students to study and understand the theoretical and practical aspects of the topic being studied. The application of the method will also make it possible to establish strong links between school, society, work and the whole world, contributing to the development of STEM literacy and competitiveness in the global economy.
