Constawa – Science Teachers Assoc of WA

“Joanne has floated the possibility of a return to the West. For the hundreds of members who missed her at the conference, this is a terrific opportunity, don’t miss out a second time.”
George Przywolnik, Penhros College Perth
“Joanne, what science needs is a young, female presenter to start improving the image of science. They’d have the credentials to gain respect, so let them know what yours are. They’d be a role model for females and be appealing for the males… As a stunningly capable and interesting female science presenter… you fit the bill.”
Ian Sanders Executive Officer, STAWA
“Her opening presentation, filled with energy, humour and simple yet effective audience-grabbers, was a recurring topic of conversation around the morning tea urns… Joanne’s workshop was often cited as a conference highlight.”
