SiMERR TASMANIA

Science, Information and Communication Technology and Mathematics Education for Rural and Regional Australia

 

Welcome to SiMERR Tasmania

 

SiMERR SUMMIT Tasmania

SiMERR Tasmania has just concluded three years of innovative educational projects in rural and regional Tasmania. The findings of the projects can be found in our publication.

 

We also organized a summit on June 4th, 2008 to discuss the issues and findings arising out of the projects with a key purpose of building networks and partnerships to develop projects further or to initiate new ones. We are currently looking for partners interested in developing ideas which will assist in improving educational outcomes for rural and regional areas in Tasmania.

 

Our Vision

 

SiMERR Australia works with rural and regional communities to achieve improved educational outcomes for all students in the areas of Science, ICT and Mathematics so that:

 

·     Parents can send their children to rural and regional schools and know they will experience equal opportunities for a quality education;

 

·     Students can attend rural or regional schools and realise their academic potential in Science, ICT and Mathematics: and

 

·     Teachers can work in rural and regional schools and be professionally connected and supported.
