there are a number of subjects that enter the curriculum in their own right for
the first time at VCE eg Legal Studies, Accounting, Health and Human
Development, Psychology to name a few. Subjects like Maths, English and LOTE do
need to have the foundations built in the lower years but I am not so sure about
many other subjects including IT.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

little, is that whenever we come up with a Year 7/8 course for example (and I
admit to being very guilty here) we fall back on those hoary old chestnuts -
Word, Excel, Powerpoint and (for heavens sake) Access. It is little wonder that
other KLAs cry out that they can do that as well as anyone else - a lot of it
is monkey see monkey do. And don't get me started on Access -no one in their
right mind would ever use seriously in business or anywhere else for that

that is subject specific to be taught ? Eg SDLC, Hardware and Software. I see
IT curriculum as important as any other subject area. We have a curriculum that
culminates in a VCE study either IPM or IS. It is ridiculous to say that
students can turn up in Year 10/11 and suddenly acquire the full range of
skills and knowledge to pass these VCE exams. We do not do that to students of
English. (My College teaches the basis of programming concepts and the SDLC (and
other like topis) as low as Year 5 – this provides the basis for a steady
build up of skills and knowledge through Year 5, 6, 7 , 8 , 9 (compulsory IT)
and Years 10,11, and 12 (optional).<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

I have concerns with ICT according to VELS. Our IPM classes are
down from 3 this year to 1 next year. My principal is talking about
removing IT from Years 7 and 8, making 9/10 as electives and teaching ICT
skills across the other subject. Many teachers seem to have
concerns. What are the navigator schools doing? What is their
approach to ICT according to VELS? Please advise.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p><font size=2 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>Thanks
for the post Leanne, sad to read some of these changes going on<br>
around the traps. How do they fit into the broader context of the<br>
implementation of VELS into your school? We may need to watch that we<br>
don't inflict up on students a new ailment of "IT death by Google or<br>
powerpoint". It has taken some convincing here that IT has been much<br>
much more ever teaching kids how to use PowerPoint.<br>
<br>
Somebody asked what it would take to replace an ICT trained teacher. I<br>
have been a wag to respond in kind if there was a 2 hour workshop that<br>
an ICT teacher could do before teaching a year 10 English class ..<br>
afterall, don't we all speak, read and write English? (no disrespect<br>
intended to English staff) I have also insisted that I embrace my
work<br>
as part of a professional learning team but will be offended if I am not<br>
consulted or it is assumed that I have been.<br>
<br>
I like some aspects of VELS but also understand that most IT trained<br>
teachers have studied long and hard to qualify for their method area.<br>
Naturally they may feel quite alone and humiliated if they are sidelined<br>
and marginalised from any discussions about these changes.<br>

period per week.<br>

of this just related to me, but there have been up to 5 others taking a class
or 3 here and there. I have done curriculum where there were parallel
classes to mine, and suggested units in the classes that I don't teach, but I
am not officially responsible for curriculum and neither are any of the other
program managers. Who is? I don't know!!! I think that it is assumed that
curriculum just hapens!<br>
><br>
>Next year my role will change - to help deal with VELs. I will be a
teaching and learning coach with a focus on ICT and still have the program
manager's responsibilities. I will have 9 periods per cycle. We have lost
IT at years 8 and 10, and have had a semester block at year 7 in all of my time
at this school. My role next year will include going into other classes
to help students / staff to cover the integrated IT and to help students to
progress in their skills there. I guess I will be asked advice as well,
since there will not be time to go into as many classes as would like to
utilise my presence.<br>
><br>
>We'll see how it goes next year. I see it as a postion full of
potential and positives, but it may all fall over. I despair that
students will only use the skills that they come in with initially, and I hope
to help them progress.<br>
