Abstract: This mini review is conducted to provide insight on assessment and evaluation of non-formal Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) education. The main guiding research question is how have assessment and evaluation of non-formal STEM education been conducted? Over nine studies were selected using the method of systematic review process. These nine studies were then analyzed. This mini review discovered that those studies have greater tendency to focus more on evaluation and summative assessment than formative one. Further action is proposed to address the need for use of more formative assessment to provide a holistic view on assessing non-formal STEM education programs.
Keywords: Non-formal STEM Education; Evaluation; Assessment.
