Feedback from participating teachers:

LOVED this session.. Love hearing from others and what they plan/do

This PL is broken into several sessions via Zoom, which was excellent. First of all, it removed the feeling of “information overload’ and it made attendance possible for more busy teachers, such as myself. The sessions invited involvement of the attendees which promoted engagement. Adam has a wonderful manner as convener.

Another great session. Thanks for recording the session so I could watch it today. I love the real life examples of bridges to share with students, both successes and failures.  Providing engineering knowledge into bridge design has been very useful when thinking of ways to implement this in schools. They make the design process more realistic for students. 

Fantastic having time to ask questions and share ideas for the classroom. I also liked seeing the data about women engineers. This would be great to share with the staff and students. Empathy building images are very inspiring for our teaching and action.

A fantastic PL program. It was great being able to attend from school as it didn’t impact as much on the school routine. The ‘real life’ STEM projects across the globe were also inspiring. This PL was very well organised and time was well utilised. A variety of online tools used were fantastic to keep everyone engaged.

STEM For humanity is an excellent program and I have already implemented or in the process of implementing STEM programs in my classes.
