The Graduate Certificate of STEM Education at Deakin, is a newly developed program, responding to international and national calls for educators and others to be adept and efficient in dealing with the STEM challenges in schools and workplaces. The four units will provide the opportunity to deepen knowledge of STEM Curriculum, including Digital Technologies, reflect on teaching and leadership practice in STEM, learn more about STEM pedagogies that support engagement in learning, and enact and research these practices in work situations and with STEM colleagues. The sequence of units is designed to move from personal insight into the nature of STEM learning and teaching and curriculum activities to support quality engagement, through to a focus on leading curriculum development and monitoring their own and school/workplace innovation in STEM.
