RiAus PDplus
Overview

PDplus is a resource pack for teachers focusing on topical issues in science, such as low level speeding, the SKA (Square Kilometre Array), food security, regenerative medicine, wind technology and more. There are two components to each pack. The first component is a set of teacher notes including background information on the topic, careers profiles and lesson plans. The second component is a live PD session for teachers featuring experts in the field discussing the topic, their own careers and answering audience questions. Both components are available to watch, print and download for free, in perpetuity.
Live PD sessions are always livestreamed on the RiAus website and may include an in-house audience, too. Certificates of attendance are available for those watching online and attending on the day: just follow the instructions for each event.
