Hi John, 
You will have seen details sent to the mailing list re our Gear Up PD for new teachers on Sat MARCH 5th.
We have plans for other sessions that specifically target the needs of VET IDM - details of which will be published soon. 
We are hoping for a good response to our Gear Up Day, where we will gather input on what teachers are after in their professional learning.
As far as planning your PD budget, we try and keep our prices down as much as possible eg with weekend or holiday sessions when venue hire costs are lowest and CRT cover is not needed 
(I know this does not suit everyone but just getting us, the PixelED committee, out of school to manage weekday sessions adds a substantial cost to anything we offer)

We also plan to continue free online sessions using Elluminate.

Sorry not very specific, but watch this space!
Cheers
Claire Bloom

List members - please feel free to let us know your areas of interest/concern as far as PD is concerned

Hi Marian and IDM colleagues,

I understand the following request may be difficult to answer but it doesn't
hurt to ask.

Is there somewhere or someone who knows about the proposed PD opportunities
offered this year for IDM.

With limited money and time off from school I'll try and best target those
areas I'd find useful.

Thanks

John

Hi Diane,
Announcing Gear Up for 2011, PixelEd's first professional learning event for
the year.

This day is aimed primarily at teachers new to VET IDM and teachers who have
taught Year 1 of the course and are  now teaching Year 2 for the first or
second time. As a bonus, we are offering a new session on ways of utilising
the extensive resources of the NGV, who are hosting the day at their St
Kilda Road site.

National Gallery of Victoria, St Kilda Rd, Melbourne

Sessions on Unit 1-2 and 3-4 of the Cert 3 course.
The PixelEd Committee will offer advice on approaches to teaching VET IDM,
resources, sample work, assessment, administrative requirements and
discussion of any issues of concern to new and inexperienced teachers.

Including a special session and tour to explore ways in which the NGV can be
used as a resource in developing projects for IDM / multimedia classes.
Former multimedia teacher and NGV educator Ingrid Wood will help us explore
possibilities!
. Why bring my class to the NGV?
. What can the NGV add to my programs?

visit?

Plenty of opportunities to network with other teachers and feel free to

ideas to share with others!
