Pawsey After Hours: Making Data Accessible to Students

This event is aimed at all teachers, in particular, Secondary Science teachers.

Feed your creativity (and your stomach!) while exploring ways to engage your students with real-world data.

Join us for an interesting and interactive discussion with Rob Hollow – a leading outreach educator in astronomy – known for his innovative teaching practices (think PULSE@Parkes).

We also invite you to browse the many real-world, data-driven case studies – in astronomy, food supply, life sciences, medicine, and more – showcased at the Pawsey Supercomputing Centre, one of Australia’s two Tier 1 high-performance computing facilities.
