The unemployment of high-school graduates continuously increases because they do not have the required skill to work. Life skill training is not programmed for such general schools; however, entrepreneurship practice is introduced in the regular curriculum. Life skill learning, which integrates science and technology, is known as STEM learning. This study aims to investigate the implementation of STEM learning with the topic of’the increase of value-added on banana chips" to enhance student motivation and entrepreneurship attitude in rural senior high schools. The STEM module was previously developed with the research and development method and ADDIE model. The module was validated before being used. Several student worksheets were used to collect data on motivation and entrepreneurial attitude before and after STEM learning was conducted. STEM-based student worksheet had been validated, and it was valid to be used. The scale of student creativity during the implementation of STEM was categorized high with the component of elaboration (83.3 %), originality (87.5%), and fluency (75%). The accumulation of mean score indicators of student motivation and entrepreneurship attitude increase from 46.8% to 75.6%, which means students are very interested in entrepreneurship. Entrepreneurship character can be induced by STEM learning.
