To encourage students to think creatively and critically, applying Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) in STEM Education (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) is very suitable to be adapted in the teaching method or pedagogy of Science teachers. This study aims to analyze technological approaches in pedagogy based on the TPACK model that is most often used based on past studies. The next objective is to analyse the teaching and learning (T&L) approaches that utilize technology in Science education. This systematic literature review focused on empirical studies published from 2018 to 2023 using SCOPUS and Google Scholar databases. This study based on Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) involves four phases, namely identification, screening, eligibility and included examination. The Scopus database is used to filter 19 final articles between 2018 and 2023 according to the criteria set. The study implies strategies for enhancing the use of technology among STEM teachers, grounded in the TPACK Model.
