Try our free teaching resources
Our teacher resources are second to none. See for yourself and try our free unit of work.
At She Maps, we made it our mission to help teachers engage a greater diversity of students in STEM using the latest technology, such as educational microdrones. Our online portal of learning and teaching resources – our She Maps Membership – includes a diverse range of units of work. Each unit of work was co-designed with industry and is aligned to the Australian Curriculum, covering a real-world STEM challenge which uses drones to solve it. Our units of work and teacher resources are one-of-a-kind, and are loved and trusted by thousands of teachers around Australia and beyond. See for yourself how we make teaching with drones easy, effective, and inclusive, by trying our free unit of work “Drones in Forestry” and downloading our complementary series of career posters, highlighting the work of females in STEM roles and inspiring young women in the classroom.
