We are now onto our third cohort of students!
Challenges were immense, but the payoff was amazing. The students are now teaching teachers and teaching students STEM. So amazing to see all the different projects they’re doing.

[Qld_ScienceWeek @QLD_ScienceWeek]

So I thought I’d share some of the cool things I’m involved with at the moment - the intersection of my current role and my background in science is pretty awesome and some exciting stuff has been happening.

[Qld_ScienceWeek @QLD_ScienceWeek]

Delivery was successful: a mixture of weekly zoom workshops, a concentrated workshop in PNG (students went to Port Moresby and teaching teaching took place online at QUT), and finally final workshops in Port Moresby once borders opened.
