- This is following on from the Term 2/3 camp. Further develop this group.
- Recruit new year 8's to help the Yr 9's
- Support kids with their recycling ideas.

# data[].attributes.body
Purchased more STEM equipment for classes to use:
- Drones
- Data loggers
- more Graphics calculators

Trailed STEM tasks in Science such as holograms, earthquake buildings, energy transfer design prac, volcano activity.

Maths - measurement units of work in Yr 8 involved students creating /building things digitally or physically. Have done a lot of work developing our maths curriculum - including problem solving, using manipulatives and questioning techniques.

Ag - Bush Tucker unit of work utilising the Home Ec facilities to cook the food, Cows Create Careers. Many STEM things covered here - animal health records, weight charts etc.

Tech - robots, flight and aviation, electronics/Stemsell, Drones, 3D printing, laser cutting, CAD software

# data[].attributes.body
- STEM teachers: need to be upskilled in how to use the software which drives the Adobe InDesign, 3D printers and the laser cutter so that we can then work on incorporating these into our teachings.
- Work out how we are going to use the new STEM space when complete.
- Curriculum development! How could we use the Stage 1 digital technologies framework within our school? Should we create a Stage 1 Science Skills course? Should we build on the choice STEM subject - keep this in Yr 9 and offer an entrepreneurs course to the Yr 10s?
- Whole School Staff: need to be upskilled on what STEM is, how it can be utilised across the curriculum, equipment available to be used, upskilling to use the equipment.

Yr 9/10 STEM class

What can we do to enhance this???
- Entrepreneur  choice subject (yr 10 level, leads on from current STEM course at Yr 9).
- digital literacies curriculum in draft form at the moment for SACE, how could we utilise this in stage 1 in the future.
- what can we do with Maths and Science Curriculum? Could we do it in 3 terms? Then have a STEM term??
- encourage links between other faculties: home ec linking with Ag, Art/tech - jewelry making, other links??? Needs to be questioned in whole school STEM T&D
- further develop robots into higher year  levels, done in Yr 8 what about Yr 9 and 10. Tonsley Campus has some great robotics stuff.
- integrate STEM snippets into our teachings

# data[].attributes.body
I believe we need a mixture of core subjects and STEM work. Kids need to learn a certain amount of content before they can apply the knowledge in a meaningful way

# data[].attributes.body
How do we make kids more creative? Big stumbling block at the moment.

# data[].attributes.body
- SACE have a big push on students doing investigations which arent 'googleable'....need to get some real life problems to solve
- chemical hazards? Flinders Uni: water contamination), Defence Science group.
- how do we clean up oil spills?

# data[].attributes.body
- aeronautical connections

# data[].attributes.body
- maths behind the yield value (estimation)
- and other ideas (shaun to follow up

# data[].attributes.body
- kids could do work for them in woodwork.
- could make furniture for the local communities

- where students can solve a problem they have and post on the website to gain community funding.

How do we solve the intermittent power problem SA has?
- crowd sourcing battery on houses

# data[].attributes.body
- link to the Community Office Peter McGinn to extend STEM class already happening.
- Community Gardens - get one up and running (use with Ag to design one)
Yr 8 Science: sustainable housing (term 4) come up with link.
- Yr 8 Measurement: housing estate, get a real map from council about an upcoming estate.

# data[].attributes.body
- look on website for the different  projects they can offer each year

# data[].attributes.body
- 4x4 Competition - remote control
- Formula 1 in Schools
- REA
- Subs in Schools
- Maker Space
- 3D printing competitions
- Drones competition (big prize money)
- launchbox
PICSE (SIA Awards)
- In future could link to Virtual Reality things there.

STEM Learning refers collectively to the disciplines of science, technology and mathematics integrated with engineering as a process to solve complex problems.  STEM learning encompasses cross-disciplinary approaches to learning that increases student disposition in STEM related fields and their development of skills in collaborative problem solving, creative thinking and critical analysis. STEM Learning challenges traditional delivery and explores new ways to identify evidence of learning.
