Science Teachers' Association of Western Australia Inc
The Science Teachers' Association of Western Australia Inc (STAWA) is an independent, nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting science and science teaching in Western Australia. Established in 1944, STAWA has evolved to include pre-service, primary, secondary, and tertiary teachers, aiming to enhance the quality of science education across the region[5].
Mission and Objectives
STAWA's primary mission is to inspire quality science teaching and learning by providing effective leadership, advocacy, professional learning opportunities, quality teaching and learning resources, and engagement and enrichment opportunities for students[5].
The association focuses on sustaining and promoting excellence in science education through various initiatives, such as organizing conferences and workshops that cater to different teaching levels and backgrounds[3].
Events and Programs
STAWA hosts several events throughout the year, including conferences and open lab afternoons designed for primary teachers. These events are aimed at providing professional learning opportunities and fostering collaboration among educators[1]. Notably, STAWA is part of CONASTA 72, the 72nd Conference of the Australian Science Teachers Association, scheduled to take place in Perth in July 2025[1].
Membership and Structure
STAWA is comprised of members from diverse educational backgrounds, including government, private, and independent schools, as well as science education colleagues from industry and government[5]. As part of the broader Australian science education community, STAWA is affiliated with the Australian Science Teachers Association (ASTA), which serves as a national federation across states and territories[4].
Role in Australian Science Education
STAWA plays a significant role in Australian science education by contributing to national initiatives such as National Science Week. This annual event encourages students and teachers to engage with science through thematic activities and resources[4]. STAWA's commitment to improving science literacy and educational standards aligns with broader Australian aims to advance scientific understanding and application.
