How you use meriSTEM is up to you, but you’ll find that with it you can extend, support, coach each student to become an independent learner. Our resources are created to help you flip learning.
Adaptable
A collective effort of over 200 volunteer contributors, the meriSTEM online and offline resources are aligned to the Australian Curriculum and have been mapped to syllabuses in all states on our courses pages.
