QUT ePrints (Queensland University of Technology)

Urban Farm DB summary

A textbook for pre-service teachers in Australia introducing STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) education through project-based learning, using a school-garden case study to integrate topics such as health, shelter and space into the Australian Curriculum across year levels F-6. It covers assessment, learning spaces, community engagement and the future of STEM education, and includes classroom activities, short-answer questions and downloadable templates. It is a teaching text, not an empirical study.
