8 Why are STEM skills crucial: 1. STEM underpins the global economic transformation In the last 50 years. STEM advances have produced: roughly half of all US economic growth, and 65% of Australia s economic growth per capita Internationally, 75% of the fastest growing occupations now require STEM skills. 8

9 Why are STEM skills crucial: 2. Science is part of our everyday lives:...everyone needs to be technology literate science.uts.edu.au 9

10 Why are STEM skills crucial: 2. Science is part of our everyday lives:... We also need to see the difference between evidence and snake oil Truth is only as powerful as the trust in those who speak it. Nancy Gibbs, Chief Editor, Time Magazine nctr.pmel.noaa.gov/honshu / Radiation from Fukushima is coming our way! Sourced from AusSMC 10

11 And yet, we continue to see a fall off in interest in STEM About 65% of 15 year olds in South Australia are interested in human biology and 50% in chemistry and physics, but. University First Preference Female Male All Sciences 40% 54% Sciences without health 14% 40% Of 15 year-old students asked about their career aspirations, only 3% said ICT professional (<1% female) STEM skills strategy for South Australia: Factors that influence young peopleʼs decision making: Prof Martin Westwell,

13 Science is seen to be important Science is valuable to society Advances in science and technology usually help improve the economy Science is important for helping us understand the natural world Advances in science usually improve people's living conditions STEM skills strategy for South Australia: Factors that influence young peopleʼs decision making Prof Martin Westwell, % of students who agree 13

14 Science is seen to be important but not to me! S e l f When I leave school there will be many opportunities for me to use science Advances in science and technology usually bring social benefit Science is very relevant to me I will use science in many ways when I am an adult S o c i e t y Science is valuable to society Advances in science and technology usually help improve the economy Science is important for helping us understand the natural world Advances in science usually improve people's living conditions STEM skills strategy for South Australia: Factors that influence young peopleʼs decision making Prof Martin Westwell, % of students who agree 14

15 So, most students don t see themselves in a science-related career I would like to work in a career involving science I would like to study science after secondary school I would like to spend my life doing advanced science I would like to work on science projects as an adult % of students who agree STEM skills strategy for South Australia: Factors that influence young peopleʼs decision making Prof Martin Westwell,

16 Stronger subjectspecific focus in teacher training Teach science in context of applications Quality, accredited STEM PD offerings Strategies to encourage students to do STEM Better career opportunity information Leadership role of school principals Remove the perverse influence of the ATAR score 16

17 Building STEM skills and knowledge to drive innovation: The single most important factor in the classroom is the human up the front: Train teachers that are inspiring AND competent in their STEM subjects Provide and require quality ongoing professional development Partner with industry to ensure a real-world context 17

18 Australian Biochemist vol. 47 (3) Dec

19 Building STEM skills and knowledge to drive innovation We continuously find statistics such as: Only a minority of Australia s primary school teachers have a STEM educational background. Teachers surveyed in 2014 said digital technology was a particular source of anxiety, with many teachers unaware of the need to teach it, or how to teach it well. 19

20 PISA 2006 Science Score Science needs to be taught more in the context of the uses/applications Students are more interested in science when they see its application especially females Application Index Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) 2012: 20

Few have MBAs Charles Goodyear BHP Kathryn Fagg RBA Board Member Michael Chaney Wesfarmers Angela Merkel Chancellor of Germany Miriam Silva COO ANZ Pacific Leigh Clifford Rio Tinto Megan Clark, Chief Exec, CSIRO Ziggy Switzkowski Telstra Don Voelte Woodside 22

23 Challenges for Education Entrepreneurship matters more 23

24 Economic Complexity Index (ECI) predicts 73% of a nation s future wealth 24

25 Building STEM skills and knowledge to drive innovation Maths is not just the language of science and technology, but the foundation of commerce, the core of engineering, and the bread and butter of every trade from cooking to construction. In the 21st century, we can no more write off a child because he s not into numbers any more than we would accept that she s not keen on the alphabet. Alan Finkel, Chief Scientist for Australia 25
