Presentation description
In this workshop, learn how to apply the suite of STELR (Science and Technology Education Leveraging Relevance) resources available from the Academy of Technological Sciences and Engineering (ATSE) in your technology classroom. STELR provides hands-on resources focused on renewable energy, with kits relating to wind, solar and hydro energy generation, as well as solar powered electric vehicles and sustainable house design. The resources are designed to be used in-curriculum in Years 7-12, and are developed and endorsed by ATSE's over 900 fellows that are leaders in Science and Technology in Australia.
Learn how STELR resources can form the backbone of project-based learning in your classroom, and the range of possibilities they offer agains the Design and Technologies curriculum.
