<p class=MsoNormal>Hi everyone (and apologies for the cross posts)!,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>It is my please to announce the opening of the VITTA
Programming Awards for 2009!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><a href="http://www.progawards.vitta.org.au/">http://www.progawards.vitta.org.au/</a><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>This year we have tried to make the awards as open as
possible by allowing any software type to be used! There are four student
categories of entry: Primary Programming, Primary Games Programming, Secondary
Programming and Secondary Games Programming. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>There is also a Teacher category this year!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN>Students are challenged to write a general
purpose or game program that addresses one of the <b>United Nations Millennium
Development Goals</b> in some way. The amount to which the program is
linked to one of these goals could vary immensely, but students should be able
to describe and justify this link. You can find the Millennium Goals
here: <a href="http://www.un.org/millenniumgoals/">http://www.un.org/millenniumgoals/</a>
and you will also find them listed on the Programming Awards web-site as well
as some program ideas!</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Schools can send in as many student entries as they like –
but must register by the 24<sup>th</sup> August. If you do not have a
good idea of how many entries you will be sending in – have a rough
guess. The main purpose of the registration process is so that I can
email updates and reminders out to you (or the person who will be managing the
student’s entries from your school).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Entries may be new or existing programs (as long as they
have not been entered into the Programming Awards previously) – and (or course)
must address the theme. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>All the best – and good luck!<o:p></o:p></p>
