DARTEF has co-authored the Scientix Observatory paper: “STEM goes digital: how can technology enhance STEM teaching?”
The STEM Alliance brings together Industries, Ministries of Education and education stakeholders to promote STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering or Mathematics subjects) education and careers.
DARTEF will be moderating a workshop during the 4th Scientix International Conference. The workshop name is “Fun of DNA Extraction” which will take place on Friday, 18th of November at 14:00 CET. Check conference programme for more details.
DARTEF will be the speaker at the webinar “STEM goes digital” organized by Scientix on 28th September 2022. The results of the discussion will be published in a Scientix Observatory.
DARTEF has created and localized a set of computer simulation for Estonian schools, that help students to build the connection between school curricula and their future jobs. Materials can be found in e-Koolikott.

In September 2021 DARTEF has launched a pilot testing in local schools. During this testing students 310 students (aged 12-15) used DARTEF simulations from September till December 2021. Then we measured change of students attitude towards STEM careers.
The results have shown us, that after using DARTEF software, average percentage of students who would like to have STEM job similar to what software has simulated was 26.1%. For comparison – only 9% of students currently (PISA2018) in Estonia select STEM job. Therefore, the growth is almost triple. It must be noted, that for some grades, the percentage of students who would select STEM career has even reached 45%.
