• Work with a researcher on our team to identify topics for which we might want to develop new resources
• Briefly outline some learning design basics to propose for potential new resources
• Learn about background research and collaborative learning design processes for educational resources

What you'll bring

You will be enthusiastic about education and designing engaging resources for students and teachers to use in classrooms. The ideal candidate will have some interest in and ideas about the aims of climate education.

To be successful in this role, the following skills, values and behaviours are desirable:

• Collaborative: Good communication skills and willingness to develop ideas in a group setting
• Organised: Able to apply a systematic approach to tasks
