<DIV>Hi Harry,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>We're looking at having 3 guest speakers.</DIV>
<DIV>One has been confirmed, he is an Apps developer at lookout Mobile (mobile apps). </DIV>
<DIV>The other is in the field of eForensics and someone who's in change management at Qantas/Jetstar. (not confirmed yet)</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Furthermore, the students will look at 'hot topics' such as health, entertainment, policing and work in groups to 'solve' a case study, where they will find out what the role of ICT is in today's society and how they can make a difference with technology.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks</DIV>
<DIV>Bianca</DIV>
