Abstract Creative Convergence Science Lab (CCSL), which is based on the master plan of science education during 2016-2020, is a project for enforcing future science learning environment through innovating old science laboratory into high-tech science lab in which students can do STEAM related inquiry activities with digital inquiry tools. In 2016, a design of conceptual model for CCSL and teaching and learning model for CCSL were developed. As a result of field study and conceptual design, the project team divided spaces of science lab into several modules such as coaching/presentation module, learning module, experiment/inquiry module, team-based cooperation module, container/preparation (data-point) module, and moving module, which can be combined flexibly according to the context and the need that every school are facing. Various types of instructions which can be done in CCSL were also developed and suggested. These instructions are curriculum based instruction, high-tech (IoT, wearable machine, digital technology, etc.) based instruction, and open source data/big-data based instruction. In 2017, 50 model schools including primary and secondary schools were selected and the models developed is being applied. In this talk, the design and implementation process of CCSL will be presented.
