Abstract:
An exciting new field is emerging within pedagogy as we know it. STEM (science,
technology, engineering and mathematics)although predominately in the United
States Secondary and vocational systems, the benefits of a stem based curriculum are
only just being considered here in Australia as far as integration into the secondary
education system.
Within this report we will consider how STEM can be incorporated into the present
curriculum, how it can influence art and creativity (and why it should) as well as
being practical. The influence of industry upon resources and curriculum and
Potential career paths in several STEM based trade disciplines will also be considered.
