Biography
Little Scientists provides professional development workshops in STEM topics to early childhood educators and teachers, aiming to promote their confidence in recognising STEM learning opportunities and implementing playful, inquiry-based experiences in children’s daily lives.
The workshops include topics such as acoustics, water, computer science, and the human body, where educational concepts such as co-construction, language development, peer group learning and metacognition are explored.
Little Scientists Australia is a not-for-profit initiative of FROEBEL Australia Limited. The program is an adaptation of the progressive educational approach of the German not-for-profit Haus der kleinen Forscher Foundation.
