Further information regarding the theme, keynote speakers, submissions to present and registration will be available soon. ACSME 2023 is an opportunity to share ideas and gain new insight into how you can contribute to the changing climate of science education. 2023 ACSME theme: The changing climate of science education The theme alludes to the rapidly changing environment in which educators from all STEM disciplines operate, with disruption caused by the pandemic exacerbated by rapid technological change. While this has provided many benefits, there are also new challenges including academic integrity, equity and the rise of generative artificial intelligence and its impact on our students and teaching practices. The theme also alludes the role of STEM educators in building knowledge and capacity about climate change and sustainability more broadly. Where better to explore this year’s conference theme and other issues impacting higher education in STEM than Tasmania? We look forward to welcoming you to Hobart in August 2023. 2023 Organising Committee Chair – Professor Tina Acuna (UTAS) tina.acuna@utas.edu.au Professor Emerita Susan Jones (UTAS) s.m.jones@utas.edu.au Associate Professor Jiangang (Johnny) Fei (UTAS) jiangang.fei@utas.edu.au Dr Jo-Anne Kelder (UTAS) jo.kelder@utas.edu.au Dr Stuart Corney (UTAS) stuart.corney@utas.edu.au Dr Susan Turland (UTAS) susan.turland@utas.edu.au Dr Fiona Taylor (UTAS) Fiona.taylor@utas.edu.au Ryan Brunton (UTAS) ryan.brunton@utas.edu.au Professor Susan Howitt (ANU, ACDS) susan.howitt@anu.edu.au Ana Lopes (Conference Proceedings, University of Sydney) at.lopes@sydney.edu.au Glenda Key (ACDS Liaison) glenda.key@monash.edu Contact ACSME organisers acdsteachinglearning@gmail.com
