Australia faces critical problems in science education with student attitudes to science in decline and a shortage of science teachers. We also face significant problems in indigenous education. This project will determine the ability of science enrichment centres to change student attitudes and to motivate them towards science using exciting and innovative new education facilities. Results will provide valuable data to allow future funding priorities to be optimised.

澳大利亚在科学教育方面面临着严重的问题，学生对科学的态度在下降，科学教师短缺。我们在土著教育方面也面临重大问题。该项目将确定科学强化中心是否有能力改变学生的态度，并利用令人兴奋和创新的新教育设施激励他们学习科学。结果将提供宝贵的数据，以便优化未来的供资优先事项。
