Microplastic pollution is one of the biggest threats to aquatic wildlife and the human food chain. To understand the impact of this growing problem and develop solutions, we need extensive data collection to record microplastic pollution from Australian shorelines. As a part of National Science Week, AUSMAP are holding an event at the Marine Discovery Centre…

STEM Design Challenge at Zoos Victoria
Celebrate National Science Week in your school by taking part in Zoos Victoria’s online STEM Design Challenge. Foundation – Year 10 students are invited to use their STEM skills, knowledge, and an engineering framework called Design Thinking to design enrichment for zoo animals. Students will bring their enrichment ideas to life using the materials around them and…
Sound in Space: String Theory
Live performance of science-inspired music with conversations between scientists, composers and performers. The science topics will include string theory (physics) and relationships between invasive and endemic species in Tasmania’s Cataract Gorge (ecology). Using the Hive’s planetarium resource, the music will be accompanied by projected visual images related to each topic. It is designed for the…
Creating Music From Science Ideas
This will be a practical workshop about turning science ideas into music compositions led by composer-educator, Karlin Love, violinist-educator Suzy Turner, and retired physics teacher, Jason Dicker. It is aimed at upper primary through secondary students, but will work fine for adults and thoughtful younger students. We’ll explore how to turn ideas into sound, and…
