Volunteer experts create online and offline (=blended) learning resources.
Teachers are able to flip their classrooms using the meriSTEM resources.
Students learn more because they can do more in a flipped class.
meriSTEM is free to all teachers and students, thanks to the countless volunteers, sponsors and the Physics Education Centre at The Australian National University.
Founder of meriSTEM, Professor Joe Hope, was a recipient of a 2015 Australian Award for University Teaching - Award for Teaching Excellence.
