ME Program iSTEM Workshop
Event Information
Description
RDA Hunter’s ME Program iSTEM Workshop is about preparing schools to introduce iSTEM into their curriculum. The program starts with the acclaimed film Most Likely to Succeed which offers an inspiring look at what students and teachers are capable of, if we have the vision and courage to transform our schools. After a discussion on the implications of the film, Dr Sleap will conduct a workshop on how to effectively teach, program and timetable for an integrated approach to STEM. The program also includes advice on how to develop partnerships with industry and tertiary institutions, followed by a hands on STEM taster lesson which can be easily implemented at your school.
