| Summary: | The aim of this study is to investigate the impacts of Arduino-based STEM education on cognitive domain level of mechanics and scientific creativity regarding mechanics, specifically on vectors, kinematics, dynamics and work-energy sub-topics. Throughout the study, one group (32) pre-test post-test research model was involved. The cognitive domain level of mechanics progress is measured by using the Cognitive Domain Scale of Mechanics (CDSM) and the scientific creativity is measured by means of Scientific Creativity Scale (SCS). Concerning cognitive domain level of mechanics, statistical analysis has revealed that STEM education has positive impact and statistically significant effects. The average scores of male participants have additionally indicated greater increase compared to the females based on CDSM regarding all sub-topics, however only work-energy has presented a statistically significant difference. Statistical analysis on scientific creativity has revealed 6.76% improvement between the pre and post measurements, nevertheless no statistically significant discrepancy has been detected. Analysis on gender has exposed no difference regarding the scientific creativity. Finally, a positive and significant correlation has been detected between pre and post scores on both scientific creativity and cognitive domain level of mechanics.
