520    The second decade of the 21st century has seen governments
       and industry globally intensify their focus on the role of
       science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) as
       a vehicle for future economic prosperity. Economic 
       opportunities for new industries that are emerging from 
       technological advances, such as those emerging from the 
       field of artificial intelligence also require greater 
       capabilities in science, mathematics, engineering and 
       technologies. In response to such opportunities and 
       challenges, government policies that position STEM as a 
       critical driver of economic prosperity have burgeoned in 
       recent years. Common to all these policies are consistent 
       messages that STEM related industries are the key to 
       future international competitiveness, productivity and 
       economic prosperity. This book presents a contemporary 
       focus on significant issues in STEM teaching, learning and
       research that are valuable in preparing students for a 
       digital 21st century. The book chapters cover a wide 
       spectrum of issues and topics using a wealth of research 
       methodologies and methods ranging from STEM definitions to
       virtual reality in the classroom; multiplicative thinking;
       STEM in pre-school, primary, secondary and tertiary 
       education, opportunities and obstacles in STEM; inquiry-
       based learning in statistics; values in STEM education and
       building academic leadership in STEM. The book is an 
       important representation of some of the work currently 
       being done by research-active academics. It will appeal to
       academics, researchers, teacher educators, educational 
       administrators, teachers and anyone interested in 
       contemporary STEM Education related research in a rapidly 
       changing globally interconnected world. Contributors are:
