...mathematical and physical insights into black holes have been astonishing, which at some level synthesised general relativity and quantum mechanics. Hawking’s work has inspired deep questions in physics and astrophysics, which has had a bearing on plans to build telescopes to explore the Universe, including the Square Kilometre Array in Australia. Alice Gorman, Senior...

...mathematics. Compared to traditional STEM programmes, arts are included, to foster innovation, critical thinking, problem solving and collaboration. STEAM focuses on using imagination and creativity through the arts in ways that bring value to STEM learning. During my field trip in Nepal, I was invited to join some sessions of the year-long programme that FabLab Nepal and...

...Mathematics (STEM). SoTL involves educators using their disciplinary knowledge to investigate a question about learning and teaching, gather evidence in a systematic way, submit their findings for peer review and make the findings public for others to build upon. The course will help you plan, conduct, and evaluate a SoTL inquiry. In this video Diane Butler, Associate...

...mathematical knowledge and skills using everyday examples. The course takes a look at measurement of length, mass and volume, negative numbers and how to use these, scientific notation (based upon powers of 10), shapes and how to calculate their properties before finally turning to how to construct and read from tables, charts and graphs. It provides a solid foundation...

...Mathematics for some time, she moved on to local government, and then the national government within the Government Statistical Service. Can you tell me about your background in statistics? "In the Civil Service in Scotland, you move departments a lot and get to work with all sorts of experts. You might work with the fisheries and go out on the boats or within housing and...
