Transcript

The Science Learning Hub Pokapū Akoranga Pūtaiao is more than just a website. We're a community. One way we build our community of educators, students, scientists and STEM experts is through our social media.

Our social media exists to share our resources, free webinars, and also to share and celebrate other excellent outreach and activities offered by the education and science community.

We're active on Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn, and we post regularly to Pinterest and YouTube. On our active channels – Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn – we'll keep you updated on events, activities, and resources. We're able to respond to queries and direct messaging on these platforms.

Pinterest and YouTube are where we collate and curate resources. On Pinterest, we curate our resources, as well as robust third party resources, under a variety of boards.

We know educators are time poor, and we work to provide content in useful groupings. We have dedicated time to run social media channels, and we want to help you. Just reach out on our enquiries email, or direct message us on our active channels.

We can recommend resources, curate content for you, and help you to connect with experts and scientists.

When you're communicating with us on social media, you're not just communicating with me, you're communicating with the whole team. We have staff with a range of strengths. So between us, we'll try and get you what you need.

So sign up and follow us and we'll follow you back because we're all about connections and supporting our education and science communities.
