The symposium brought together members of the Australian and Indonesian scientific academies, early- and mid-career researchers, and representatives of government agencies and private sector partners.

The Science by Doing website has just had a facelift to capture the latest approaches in web technology.

While many education websites are only available to teachers, Science by Doing is available to all Australian students and teachers simply by registering.

New website visitors can explore many aspects of the Science by Doing program before registering, including some of the program’s videos.

The workshops provide science education for pre-service teachers in a supportive environment.
