This study aims to examine the effect of applying the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) approach through simple technology on the technology literacy of students in a simple harmonic motion content. This research method is one group pretest-postest design. There are two classes involved, namely the modeling and implementation class. Both classes use the STEM approach through simple technology. The research subjects were grade X students at MAN 1 Yogyakarta. The research sample consisted of 26 students in the STEM modeling class and 24 students in the STEM implementation class, which were determined by random sampling. The research instrument used a technology literacy description test. Data were analyzed quantitatively using the SPSS 21.0 program. The analysis shows that there is an increase in the results of the pretest-posttest technology literacy ability of students in both classes. Technology literacy of students in both classes shows the same N-Gain which is 0.46 (in the moderate category). These results indicate that the STEM approach through simple technology on simple harmonic motion content can influence students' technology literacy enhancement. © 2020 Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
