SEMINAR: Secrets of our STEM Success: Penrhos College

SECRETS OF OUR STEM SUCCESS: PENRHOS COLLEGE PLEASE JOIN THE MURDOCH SCHOOL OF EDUCATION FOR A SEMINAR PRESENTED BY A PANEL OF PENRHOS COLLEGE STEM EDUCATORS. As winners of the Leadership Excellence in the 2017 Governor’s Schools STEM Awards (Primary and Secondary), PENRHOS COLLEGE WILL SHARE THEIR JOURNEY IN STEM AND FUTURE FOCUSSED LEARNING, including: * key initiatives undertaken in STEM education  * how the school is shifting to be more 'future focused' * strategic directions leading to an increase in student and staff performance * methods to improve student engagement in STEM and beyond * our unique Maths Mentor Program. Today’s students have a legacy awaiting them—they will face critical issues that impact our entire planet, in addition to challenges that we can not yet imagine. We can empower students to solve these challenges for present and future generations now, in our own classrooms. To do this we must move our focus beyond literacy and numeracy, and into the realms of critical and creative thinking, ethical action, and a deep awareness and understanding of our global culture.
