EngQuest new in 2014

STEM Education (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) is gaining ground in schools. Many future jobs, some not even invented yet, will demand high levels of understanding and skill in STEM fields.

Natural Maths is embracing STEM and will be flagging existing problems and activities that relate to STEM as well as designing specific problems and activities to promote STEM.

Did you know that February launches the 2014 EngQuest?

EngQuest is a challenge from Engineering Australia designed to be hands on and cross curricula.
Two challenges, simple machines and water wheels, are already outlined on their website and both have a suite of support materials. Registration to EngQuest is free and there is a free support pack available from Engineers Australia at http://www.forteachersforstudents.com.au/Events/engquest.php

Go take a look and get ready for the best school year ever.
