Discovery STEM Education is a not for profit organisation with a STEM Centre at
Kelham Island Museum and a STEM Academy at Sheffield College. Working in
partnership with leading STEM organisations from across the globe, we have
developed Invent Future Global and World Educational Robotics UK. We are an
international hub of interaction between schools, colleges, university
departments, STEM organisations and current technology industry. Discovery STEM
Education is a member of a UK Robotics and Autonomous Systems Education and
Skills Task Group which has been awarded EPSRC funding to develop robotics and
autonomous systems education in the UK. Working in collaboration with Abilix UK,
Consequential Robotics and The University of Sheffield, we have developed
educational robotics curriculum and supported more than 200 schools to
incorporate robotics into their existing curriculum. A major focus of our STEM
career building strategy is to develop opportunities for young people to
collaborate and problem solve with children from across the globe. Since July
2018 we have organised three international robotics events at Sheffield
University for schools from the UK, Mexico and China with support from
Rolls-Royce UK, Sheffield robotics and the Advanced Manufacturing Research
Centre. We also organise onsite and online international robotics and invention
conferences for young people from multiple countries.
