Movie Magic

Movie Magic – This theme was based around the STEM skills in the movie industry with each school developing a 3D printed company logo, dynamic spreadsheet model to demonstrate flexibility within movie budgets, engineering and prototyping a camera rigging device to navigate a set track within a specified time limit and creating an Arduino coded display for the launch of their fictional film company at the Regional Showcase.

Activities commence each year for Year 9,10 and/or 11 students from secondary schools in Metropolitan Adelaide, Whyalla, Mount Gambier, Victorian, Queensland, Western Australia, New South Wales and Australian Capital Territory regions. We had over 500 students from schools across South Australia, Queensland and Victoria, involved in STEMIE and hope to see this number grow as we introduce more interstate teams. Schools can engage one or more classes, or a targeted group of students. Schools will need to select up to six (6) students as their representatives at their Regional Showcase event. 

The STEM Innovation Experience has three major components. 

This UniSA STEMIE Moodle is a central place where students and teachers can access resources,  assessment information and updates throughout the Experience. 

Schools that have returned a signed acceptance letter will receive sponsorship in the form of some seed equipment from The University of South Australia.
