Implementing Novel STEM Partnership in Indigenous and Rural Education (INSPIRE)

INSPIRE INSPIRE 2018 brings final year QUT STEM undergraduates together with an experienced science communicator/mentor/lecturer to develop a teaching plan with indigenous/rural high school science teachers from Longreach, Mt Isa or Normanton. This will involve hosting the high school teachers in Brisbane 25-26 June to workshop this plan which will be tailored to their curriculum and learning needs of their students, and for the teachers to benefit from existing QUT-teacher support programs. Each QUT duo will then visit the high schools for 5 night stay (23-27th July or following week) to deliver STEM workshops and activities to year 9 and 10 students, with the added opportunity to donate QUT STEM-related equipment.
