Teaching STEM: Science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) affect almost every aspect of our lives. Innovations driven by people skilled in STEM are changing how we live, work and understand the world. STEM education fosters students' skills and prepares them to participate in a rapidly changing world and contribute to Australia's future development and prosperity. The delivery of Sydney Metro provides a context for STEM learning. The Sydney Metro project is an opportunity for students to explore an identified problem and the creation of a solution, building their understanding of how the design process is used in real-world situations.
