SISP is delivered in partnership with Academies of STEM Excellence and iSTEM program in regional NSW.
STEM education is the learning of science, technology, engineering and mathematics in an interdisciplinary or integrated approach. Students gain and apply knowledge, deepen their understanding and develop creative and critical thinking skills within an authentic context. It may include inquiry and project-based learning.
A vibrant capacity in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) is pivotal to increasing our nation’s productivity.
"Australia’s STEM teachers at all levels, from primary to tertiary, must be equipped to deliver course content with confidence and inspiration and develop all students to their full potential. Curricula and assessment criteria should prioritise curiosity-driven and problem-based learning of STEM - STEM as it is practised - alongside the subject-specific knowledge that STEM requires."
Professor Ian Chubb, Chief Scientist
Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics: Australia’s Future 2014
The SISP team is fortunate to collaborate with many organisations and individuals who act as contributors to and ambassadors of the program, via the Academies of STEM Excellence in regional NSW.
iSTEM is a student-centered elective for students in Years 9 and 10 that delivers Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) in an innovative and integrated way.
