The STEM Alliance is currently producing research materials on key issues
such as the shortage of STEM teachers and the innovative use of ICT in STEM
education.
The findings are based on surveys and ‘state of the art’ analysis carried
out by the Knowledge Centre/Observatory of STEM Trends in Education, with
the additional consultation of both Ministries of Education and industry
partners.
The main aim of these publications is to further a debate on key issues in
STEM education and to support calls for action at both national and
European levels.
