NCEA UPDATES: Work is underway to rearrange our L1 content to meet the format of the new standards, but will take some time. In the meantime, teachers may direct students to the relevant sections within the existing courses as needed.
The Standards
The goal of STEM Online NZ is to create interactive online teaching and learning resources for all NCEA externally assessed standards in the following subject areas; Physics, Mathematics and Chemistry.
A list of our current and future resources is below. NZ teachers can visit the ‘Register‘ page to sign up for any currently available courses. Free to New Zealand schools!
