Australian Indigenous Mentoring Experience

Online game to inspire young Indigenous students to learn maths and science

Indigenous students in Australia are graduating from school at nearly half the rate (41.5%) of their non-Indigenous peers (81.2%). Australian students' performance in maths and science has declined over the past 10 years, and Indigenous students are on average 2.5 years of schooling behind the national average in these subjects. AIME will develop an immersive online game, AIMESTAR, that sparks the interest of young Indigenous students to learn and excel in maths and science, connecting them to possible career paths in science, engineering, technology, design and innovation. In three years, AIMESTAR will be used by 10,000 Indigenous students across Australia to increase ability and interest in maths and science.
