STEM Community Partnerships Program (STEM CPP): 2024 Teacher Professional Learning Day - Eveleigh

At the session, we will:

• Outline what the STEM CPP involves and the activities your students will be able to participate in this year
• Run a workshop on the project inquiry process, where you will have hands-on practise of the question formulation process working with a local challenge scenario
• Help you plan how the STEM CPP could fit into your class program
• Provide details about the many resources available to help you throughout the program and finalise access to them
• Answer any questions you have

Please bring along your laptop and a program with you that you hope to embed the local challenge into. If you are an existing STEM CPP school, please bring your existing program along.

Generation STEM provides teacher relief for two new teachers from schools in the STEM CPP, to attend.

About the program

The STEM CPP aims to create strong partnerships between local schools and industry, with the goal of highlighting local STEM careers and opportunities and providing avenues for students to develop their STEM skills in an engaging and rewarding way.

As part of the program, Stage 4 and 5 students work on STEM inquiry-based projects to address challenges faced by the local community. The program is flexible in its delivery and is mapped against the curriculum.

Students will be able to present their solutions to the local community in an end-of-year project showcase.

In addition, selected students will have access to STEM industry visits throughout the year and will be invited to apply for STEM work experience opportunities in Year 10. These opportunities will expose students to a range of different STEM opportunities and education pathways that lead to exciting local STEM careers.
