This study focuses on teaching and the learning development in mathematics through the collaborative design of technology-enhanced science lessons with STEM Education. The purposes of this research were as follows. The first purpose was to develop learning activities for the surface area and volume by organizing learning activities with STEM Education for Mathayomsuksa III students. The second was to compare achievements before and after for the surface area and volume by organizing learning activities with STEM Education for Mathayomsuksa III students. The third was to compare the ability to solve problems before and after on the surface area and volume by organizing learning activities with STEM Education for Mathayomsuksa III students. Finally, the fourth purpose was to study students’ satisfaction in learning about the surface area and volume by organizing learning activities with STEM Education for Mathayomsuksa 3 students. The research samples consisted of 30 Mathayomsuksa III students at Kapong Pittayakom School, under the Jurisdiction of the Office of Region 14 Secondary Education Area. These students studied in the first semester of the academic year of 2017. 25 classrooms were acquired by a specific selection. The research instruments were: 1) a learning plan; 2) an achievement test; 3) a problem solving ability test; and 4) data that was analysed by percentage, mean, standard deviation and standard deviation. The results were as follows: 1) A plan for learning about surface area and volume for students of Mathayomsuksa III by organizing learning activities with STEM Education where efficiency was 86.31 / 89.47. 2) The learning of surface area and volume for students of Mathayomsuksa III by organizing learning activities with STEM Education had significant differences at a level of .05 after the study. 3) The ability to solve surface and volume problems for students of Mathayomsuksa III by organizing learning activities with STEM Education yielded significant differences at a level of .05 after the study. 4) The satisfaction of learning about surface area and volume for students of Mathayomsuksa III by organizing learning activities with STEM Education was observed. The learning activity was conducted based on the level of education.
