The learning process that is synergistic with the development of the current era is very necessary. Local wisdom that is aligned with technology is a challenge. Therefore, this study aims at developing a tool which is functioned to measure students’ readiness towards developing instruments related to etno-STEM based Science Education courses. The selected items were given to the expert team for validation. The initial trial of the initial instrument was done using the main component analysis and Cronbach alpha coefficient. The results of a strong coefficient on each instrument can be used as a reference for implementing etno-STEM based Science Education. The wisdom of the Indonesian people towards the wealth of natural resources and their use is influenced by the lifestyle of the Indonesian people who still tend to be weary. Human resources that are aware of local wisdom and technology and its impact on the environment are needed. Students are as agents of change; developing or not a culture of maintaining etno-STEM based technology friendly local wisdom.
