S2, EP23: Science Week

Why is it important to immerse students in Science?

Science forms an integral part of our lives and is an important component of the teaching and learning that occurs in classrooms in Australia. 

In episode 23, the Teacher Takeaway Podcast discuss all things Science in recognition of National Science Week, including:

• National Science Week Theme - Glass: More Than Meets The Eye 
• Engagement in the Sciences
• Integration across the curriculum
  
• Our favourite experiments
  

This year's National Science Week theme is 

Glass: More Than Meets The Eye 

​It is based on the UN International Year of Glass. It will celebrate the many roles that glass plays in our lives – from phone screens to optical fibre to glassware in labs – plus investigating glass as a part of our sustainable future. The uses for and intrinsic nature of glass in science make it a suitable topic for investigation across all strands of science education.
