STEM in ACTION’s vision is to become a recognized non-profit leader in the provision of services and innovative solutions for the teaching and learning of Science and Technology.
STEM in ACTION offers Physical Science support to Grade 10 – 12 learners as well as their educators. It aims to promote and develop critical Mathematics and Physical Science skills within this focus group, to ultimately increase the number of learners qualifying to enter degrees studies in Science and Technology in the Eastern Cape.
This holistic Science education support programme, uses hands-on Science experiments with a constructivist’s approach, as a teaching tool to support the Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statements (CAPS) of the Department of Education. This approach is further blended with a strong e-learning component, using data-logging equipment with electronic sensors, as well as appropriate simulations to most effectively promote the enthusiastic teaching and learning of the Sciences. The promotion of the subject is further enhanced by offering learners, and their educators, career exploration opportunities with regards to Science and Engineering career pathways in South Africa.
