STEM education is a suitable model for innovating Vietnam's education, focusing on developing students' abilities and qualities. STEM-integrated teaching is essential in high schools to develop students' thinking and creativity, communication and cooperation abilities to meet the needs of the country's development. Building an integrated STEM topic (referred to as iSTEM topic) for single-subject teaching is an issue that many teachers are interested in, especially in the 2018 General Education Program. What criteria to build a topic integrating STEM in single-subject teaching of current general education curricula? This is the research question in this paper. Based on the survey, analysis and evaluation of the existing iSTEM topic criteria, we propose a set of criteria for implementing iSTEM topic design in teaching Physics at high schools in Vietnam.
