SEAQIS conducts its own research and supports teachers and education personnel through the SEAQIS Research Grant, generating new knowledge in science education.
Research is not a side activity at SEAQIS — it is one of the three core pillars that underpin all of SEAQIS's programmes and services across Southeast Asia.
Through its research, SEAQIS generates new knowledge that feeds directly into the development of training programmes, the creation of learning media and regional science education policy recommendations.
Science teachers and education personnel from the 11 SEAMEO member countries. Priority is given to teachers who have previously attended SEAQIS training and have a clear research plan.
Science education research on Inquiry-Based Science Learning (IBSE), STEM integration, digital transformation in education, and strategic topics linked to the current year's SRG theme.
A research report, a presentation at ICON SEAQIS and publication in SciEd Journal. Participants are also mentored by expert reviewers throughout the research process.
Year after year, SRG themes have reflected the most pressing science education issues in the region.
Funded by Kemendikbud, this round invited science teachers to research digital learning innovations in the classroom, with a focus on STEM learning.
Grant coordination took place by video conference during the pandemic. Assessors: Prof. Agus Suyatna, Dr. Dewi Lengkana, Dr. Sediono, Dr. Harry Firman.
Research on implementing STEM approaches in formal science learning in schools across SEAMEO member countries.
Focused on science learning rooted in local contexts and on environmental sustainability issues in Southeast Asia.
The inaugural and follow-up editions of the SRG, laying the foundations for a research community of science teachers in Southeast Asia.
Latest theme: exploring the role of artificial intelligence in supporting science teaching and learning. Registration details will be announced soon.
All SEAQIS research outputs are published in SciEd Journal — an indexed science education journal published regularly by SEAQIS. It is free to access for all academics and teachers.
