ASE Conference 2025 in UK: Shift in emphasis from science education to STEM education

 The ASE hosted its three-day Annual Conference-2025 sponsored by AQA at the University of Nottingham from 9th to 11th January. International sessions are incorporated throughout the event’s 3 days and we will have a great exhibition with lots of exclusive Conference offers. It is believed the ASE conference is the UK’s largest event focussing on science education professional teaching and learning'  at the University of Nottingham’s University with  'over 250 sessions from the best science education speakers and practitioners – all in one place' along with more than 50 science education organisations, full of activities, equipment and resources with exclusive competitions and giveaways.

During the conference, the names of the Findel CASTME Awards for the preceding year are usually announced for innovative STEM education and awareness projects carried out in institutions, among communities and sustainable development.

In the UK, STEM education is viewed as a 'multidisciplinary approach' to learning that integrates 'science, technology, engineering, and mathematics' to develop 'real-world skills like problem-solving, critical thinking, and collaboration' among students in order to overcome the 'shortage of STEM skills in the UK workforce' and fulfil the 'gap between education and industry.' Further, in the UK, designed skill courses provide 'in-depth knowledge and practical skills necessary for careers in STEM fields.'

The British Council's 'STEM Education Programme' is supporting 'knowledge exchange and partnership opportunities between the UK and partner countries on STEM education approaches and in doing so build the human resource capacity in a vital area for economic development and social well-being' by providing help in improving 'STEM education approaches' and 'curricula for primary, secondary and tertiary STEM education.'
