[Design and Technology] a few spots still available in the Grad Dip Technology Education at La Trobe University

[Richard Bazeley]

Michael,

Good luck with your recruiting. I have been teaching VCE/Vet Furnishing for
the last 5 years and I have enjoyed it very much. 

Sending you a link to a blog that advocates  Hands on Learning. 

http://wisdomofhands.blogspot.com.au/

I support what he is saying and have had some success with this approach to
teaching and learning.

It is also interesting to compare our situation here to what has happened in
the USA in regard to testing and what impact that has had on hands on
learning.

Technology Education at La Trobe University

 

Welcome back to all the Technology teachers returning to work for the new
school year.  

 

I am the Course Coordinator for the Graduate Diploma of Technology Education
at LaTrobe Uni at Bundoora. We have been told by staff at the Planning
Department of the DEECD that Technology teachers are in great demand across
the state yet as you probably know we are the last program left standing
training technology teachers in Victoria.  Our program is designed to take
in participants from a wide range of qualifications and industry experiences
(trade backgrounds up to degrees).

 

Details on our program are available on the university website at 

http://www.latrobe.edu.au/handbook/2012/postgraduate/education/coursework/ed
gte.htm

We still have a few spots left in our program for the 2012 intake.  Most
classes are provided in weekend mode to cater for mature age students who
work.

Should you know of anyone interested in becoming a Technology teacher, then
please pass this email and my contact details onto them to follow up.

 

Regards 

Mike Brown
