This research objectives were to study 1) the development STEM education on the learning unit on sound when E1/E2 was 80/80, 2) the physics learning achievement before and after using STEM education, as well as after using STEM education and to compare learning achievement with the criteria (70 percentage), and 3) the creative problem solving thinking ability before and after using STEM education, as well as after using STEM education on the learning unit on sound. The research design was a one-group pretest posttest design. The samples consisted of 39 students in 11th grade who studied in Sciences and Mathematics program. The sample in this study was selected by propulsive sampling technique. The instruments used in the research included the following 1) the learning unit sound, 2) Physics tests, and 3) creative problem-solving ability tests. The statistical analysis were mean, standard deviation, E1/E2 efficiency process balance, and t-test for dependent samples and one sample.
The results of this research were as follows 1) STEM Education on the learning unit on sound of 11th grade level was qualified at 83.60/84.35, according to 80/80 criteria, 2) students learned by STEM Education had higher learning achievement than before learning with statistical significance at the level of 0.01 and passing the specified criteria (70 percent=14 points), and 3) students learned by STEM Education had better creative problem solving ability both in the overview and each area with statistical significance at 0.01.
