At STEM in the Early Years, we focus on children’s natural curiosity about the world around them. The learning experiences we present are play-based and intended to arise from young children’s interests and actions. We encourage you to explore everyday science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) with your children – and to have fun!

The Conceptual PlayLab is Australia's first programmatic study that aims to test ground-breaking play-based models of teaching science, technology, engineering and mathematics to young children. It aims to create significant shifts in the ways STEM concepts are taught to young children in Australia, and around the world.
The non-profit Stiftung Kinder forschen (Little Scientists Foundation) is Germany’s largest early childhood education initiative in the domains of science, technology, engineering/computer science, and mathematics (STEM). With an accompanying focus on Education for Sustainable Development (ESD), the aim of the programme is to strengthen children for the future, provide them with important skills, and enable them to act in a sustainable way.

本計畫的主要教學理念是以建構式教學理念進行,中心理念如下:
學習是發生在學習者主動投入參與知識的建構之中
教學呈現包含:主動學習、發現探索、討論協調及合作學習等
教師主要是一個促進者,鼓勵學生探索並建構知識
教室的學習文化鼓勵好奇心、討論和實驗分析
重視學生創意思考、動手實作、自我學習
翻轉課室中的「教學者」和「學習者」角色,以學生為主體
培養學生創意思考、動手實作及自我學習等未來必備的重要能力
