I would be grateful if my Australian connections could share this research survey with primary school teachers. It is my PhD student, Lucy: CALLING ALL PRIMARY SCHOOL TEACHERS AUSTRALIA-WIDE! My PhD Phase 1 Questionnaire is open for another two weeks. I am seeking 20 more responses and am hoping you could spare 15-20 mins of your time to complete a Questionnaire on STEM Education. I will share the professional development framework created in my thesis publication for you to access. Thank you for your time in advance. I really appreciate it.
