About this Event
The Einstein-First Project is an exciting initiative aimed at modernising the school science curriculum by introducing the concepts such as curved space, warped time, and gravity, which have direct relevance to our daily lives.
On 13 June the project is being launched nationally, and with it a brand-new national project called Quantum Girls. The teams behind these projects are presenting information workshops in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane.
Quantum Girls project expands Einstein-First science education by combining with UWA/Pawsey Quantum Computing to create a national education program designed to enhance female participation in all aspects of modern quantum science which underpins the STEM economy.
Einstein-First emphasises everyone's right to share in our best understanding of physical reality. By inspiring students and teachers to think beyond 19th century concepts, and embrace Einsteinian thinking we aim to empower the new generation with the skills and enthusiasm to shape the future of science and technology.
Our revolutionary hands-on activity-based learning creates a continuous spiral of learning from year 3 to year 10. It inspires students and teachers alike; teenage girls especially.
