Queensland STEM Education Network
The Queensland STEM Education Network (QSEN) website has now been transferred to the Queensland Science Network. Funding for QSEN expired at the end of March 2018. The project assembled a number of valuable resources including posters and a glossary of terms. QSEN was a consortium of Queensland universities providing a range of high quality programs and initiatives designed to build STEM capacity across the State. A statement of objectives and outcomes has been furnished by former Coordinator and Member of the Society Kay Lembo (syllabus AT royalsocietyqld.org.au).
We acknowledge the enormous investment of time and talent by Ms Lembo and her colleagues, and especially thank Griffith University for hosting the project originally.
