STEM Ideation for Primary Teachers
Event description
STEM Rapid Upskill!
We’ve all heard of the acronym STEM… so what does that really mean in practice? We’ll look at rapidly co-creating STEM lessons & projects that will make a meaningful difference for your students. The program will be highly collaborative and fast-paced, where you’ll gain ideas from teachers from a variety of grades in a design-thinking environment. Importantly, time is spent looking at how to realistically implement these ideas using the tools, budgets and resources you have at hand.
- Suitable for all primary teachers at the proficient Level
- Bookings essential
We apply design thinking and ideation principles in a group-think environment to help you create meaningful STEM projects for your students.
Design thinking is a way of creatively solving challenges using materials in a set timeframe. Importantly, there are three steps involved
- Identifying; what the actual problem is that you’re trying to solve?
- Ideation; coming up a large array of ideas that could solve the problem
- Iteration; prototyping and testing multiple ideas, getting ever closer to the solution
This session is highly collaborative and fast-paced; be prepared for ideas to flow quickly from everyone in the room as we work together to make STEM in your school shine!

EpiPens
We take anaphylaxis seriously. Anyone that requires an EpiPen must bring a minimum of 1 on the day in association with the ASCIA Guidelines. This is so that in the event of an emergency we have the required dose (we cannot borrow someone else's EpiPen or rely on an onsite backup EpiPen working or being available). Please also give all information of the allergic condition to our presenters.
