stem.T4L Learning Library
The stem.T4L program provides trial kits, resources, professional learning and support to all schools across NSW Education. This program empowers schools to teach students the skills they need to solve the problems of tomorrow.
The library can also be found under My Learning Tools in the staff portal. A range of resources including learning activities mapped to curriculum.
The objectives of this program are to:
- Raise awareness of the effective use of technology to improve student learning
- Enable teachers to understand, experience and embed stem technologies into teaching and learning
- Support students’ capability in using technologies for learning and to build digital resilience
- Create a sustainable STEM community of practice
Through this program, we provide trial kits, resources, professional learning and support to all schools across NSW Education.
stem.T4L research
Research is an integral part of the stem.T4L Project. Our research team has a wealth of experience in educational research. Through our research, the overall effectiveness of this initiative is rigorously evaluated. We use surveys and focus group interviews with teachers and students in K-12 schools as a base for our work.
In each phase of the research, different variables are investigated. These include students’ and teachers’ attitudes toward STEM, interest, self-efficacy beliefs, and students’ 21st century skills. As well as the extent to which such variables experience changes over the course of the project as the research participants implement the stem.T4L equipment.
All stem.T4L research will be published here with supporting audio books (available on Spotify).
