About

Are you a Tasmanian STEM educator with an interest in building your networks with other educators?  With the support of local teachers, Questacon has established the Tasmanian STEM network and is hosting regular meetings across the state.

Each meeting you’ll hear from local educators about their best STEM practice in the classroom, connect to your local Questacon Regional Leader, complete a hands-on STEM activity and discuss how you can extend and enrich your STEM teaching. This session we’ll focus on Country – gaining insights on best practices on incorporating First Nation’s perspectives and knowledges and focusing on environment and sustainability in STEM!

Questacon Regional Leaders are in every state and territory across Australia to help you build confidence and capacity in STEM education wherever you are.

  • Meet other educators to share and learn from each other.
  • Gain insights on the best resources and programs in STEM.
  • Get practical classroom activity ideas that you can implement immediately.
  • Join Q.Ed Community, the online community to connect educators across the state.
