The present study was conducted with the aim of evaluating the current state of research in relation to STEAM education for gifted students in elementary school. This study was conducted as a systematic review to analyze (1) how STEAM education is used for gifted students, (2) opportunities and challenges in this type of education, and (3) the impact of STEAM education implementation on the progress of gifted students. A search was conducted in reputative databases including Scopus, Web of Science, and Wiley for articles published from 2010 to 2023. After the initial screening steps, among the 634 extracted articles, finally 17 articles were selected according to the research criteria. In this review, various dimensions including methods, participants, data collection tools, and research fields have been examined. The results of the research reveal that STEAM education can play an important role in promoting the learning and ability of elementary gifted students, and despite various challenges, there are various opportunities to strengthen it in the future.

Introduction: Technological education as one of the educational areas of the fundamental transformation of education should initially be established for teachers so that these technological teachers can provide opportunities for their students to be educated in this area. Therefore, the present study sought to identify the components and subcomponents of technological education and to draw a learning model for this issue for student teachers at Farhangian University.Materials and Methods: The method of this research is mixed. In the qualitative part, inductive content analysis was used, and in the quantitative part, experts' opinions were used. The statistical population in the qualitative part was written sources and the content of professors' interviews, and in the quantitative part, experts. The selection of samples in both parts was purposeful. Data collection in the qualitative part was carried out using content analysis of sources, and in the quantitative part, using a researcher-made questionnaire.Findings: According to the content analysis, five main layers were identified and a conceptual and process model of technological education was presented. These categories include: theoretical components of technological education, steps that underlie the technological environment, characteristics of the technological environment, factors involved in technological education, and the outcome of technological education.Conclusion:The results of internal validation based on the opinions of experts have shown that the presented learning model based on technological education has a desirable internal validity and has the necessary effectiveness for students and teachers of Farhangian University.sought
