Building Teacher Capability Using STEM Partnership Models (Old ID 22736)
Role
Principal Investigator
Description
We propose to establish and pilot two QSTEM Hubs - one metropolitan and one regional. Each hub will consist of three to four schools. Industry partners will be identified via our links with the Australian Industry Group (AIG) and in consultation with the school principals and Regional STEM Officers, and invited to participate. The AIG has a strong commitment to building STEM capital through industry partnerships with education, demonstrated through its STEM Skills project and STEM Program Index 2016, and has agreed to facilitate industry participation in our project. Other suitable partners such as museums, science centres, research institutes, community groups etc. will be identified through QUT connections as well as those of the schools and the department, and invited to participate.
