In this session, students will work through the following two activities as part of the brand new 'Superhabitats' Tech School program.
Tuesday August 5th. For students of secondary school age. Free,
Resilient Responses
Students will get hands-on with industry-use Geographic Information System software Nearmap and interact with an AI-powered resident bot to explore how habitats might remain resilient to both naturally-induced and human-induced environmental change. They will be tasked with gathering evidence to support hypotheses for what might have occurred in specified areas, and suggest a relevant response, appropriate to their resident.
Bridging Biodiversity
Students will use accessible classroom robotics solution Ozobots to better understand how biodiversity supports a sustainable habitat for their resident. They will learn about keystone species and the impact that they have in keeping an ecosystem balanced and healthy.
This is a great opportunity to visit the Monash Tech school site, which has over $8 million invested in facilities and technology. This is our first workshop with Monash Tech School. Spaces are limited. A wait list will become available if the event books out.
