Non-Award
The increasing imperative to teach STEM education in Australian schools has left many teachers feeling challenged about teaching engineering as a concept. This professional learning course, presented collaboratively by the Faculties of Education and Engineering at Monash University, endeavours to support teachers in seeing the benefits of engineering in their enacted curriculum.
This one-day workshop will explore ideas around the nature and diversity of engineering and how links to this can be made to the curriculum. Relevant pedagogies such as problem-based learning and design-based learning will be explored in relation to authentic problem solving and participants will interact with engineering academics and students to explore engineering in practice.
