The paper will clarify STEM education learning activity of making simple tool to produce analong rice. The developed lesson plan is developed as collaboration among Physics, Chemistry and Biology teachers to address the issue on rice issue. The STEM education learning activity will be developed based on Sutaphan and Yuenyong [11] the context-based STEM education learning approach. The activity will start from identification of social issue of consumption of rice. The issue will engage students to develop projects for solutions. Consuming rice can trigger several types of diseases. Display the disease that will be suffered because of excessive consumption of rice. Starting from that thought, it would be very suitable if STEM was applied in the development of ideas related to making simple tools to produce analog rice. Through the context-based STEM education learning approach, students may motivate students to apply knowledge about physics, chemistry, and biology in order to design some technology prototypes or products through engineer design process. To design a tool for making simple analog rice, students may apply the principle of thermodynamics, classifying the nutritional content of the ingredients, and mixing the ingredients in terms of the tools. This paper may have implications for designing STEM education learning activities.
