THE 4^th  INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE

ON EDUCATION IN MUSLIMS SOCIETY (ICEMS)

“New Perspective on STEM Education in Muslim Society:

Current Issues from different lenses”

INTRODUCTION

Science has been a part of the Muslim world. From everyday lives to the invention of sophisticated natural law, Muslim scientists share their contribution to the world. While religious education commonly understood as mere teaching of religious subject, Islamic education does not separate science to the broader education context. Therefore, science education has been and will continue to be an important aspect of Islamic education.

Science teaching in Muslim schools has been developed to meet the expectation on how young Muslim generation can learn and practice science within the context of Islamic teaching. While scientists, such as Hoodbhoy (1991) argues that there is no such things as Islamic science as well as science of other religions, integrating science into the whole context school curriculum is very important. In that case, educators in the Muslims worlds offer various perspectives on how science is bet integrated into the curricula of Muslim schools.

The 4^th International Conference on Education in  Muslim Society (ICEMS) 2018 is designed not only to share the research but also offer recommendations for the governments, educational intitutions, and other stake holders to improve the quality of STEM education. It is conducted by the Faculty of Teaching Sciences of Syarif Hidayatullah Islamic State University (UIN) Jakarta. The committee invites scholars, researchers, policy makers, teachers, and students from various countries to participate and work together to improve the quality of STEM education in Muslim community. Hosted by UIN Jakarta, the 4^th ICEMS 2018 is intended to provide an opportunity for various stakeholders of STEM education especially in Muslim Society around the world to share their works, opinions and experiences in an open academic forum.
