The Faculty of Education was involved in the launch of the National Virtual School of the Emerging Sciences (NVSES), an online platform that works as a virtual classroom for regional and remote students, who then have the opportunities to learn from the same leading scientists and educators as their inner-city peers.
Students connect with leading experts at Monash to discuss STEM (science, technology, engineering and maths) topics and complete weekly classes with peer-to-peer interaction in real time. This online platform means that students anywhere in the world with access to a computer and internet connection can be part of a class.
Project impact: NVSES has shown how to create new and engaging ways for students and teachers to access cutting-edge STEM education regardless of location.
