8.6 More conscientious efforts would be made on identifying innovative pedagogies and student projects for dissemination and knowledge transfer. Apart from the PDS of the 2016/17 school year, the participating schools of the QTN would also help disseminate good practices not necessarily funded by the Quality Education Fund (QEF).
It is hoped that these STEM centres would be located strategically to enhance accessibility to schools.
8.7 STEM education has been included in the “Priority Themes” of the QEF to encourage the education sector to apply for funding to foster innovativeness.
8.8 Experiences from STEM education related QEF Projects and other quality projects would be researched to generate new knowledge and insights so that they can be transferred to other situations.
8.9 To monitor the progress of implementation of STEM education, ongoing collection of feedback and evaluation will be conducted on the six strategies and on the impact of STEM education. Advisory curriculum committees, the school sector, tertiary institutions, professional organisations, parents and employers would be engaged in the process.
