The Technologies - ICT/Digital technologies

Have your say!

ACARA has just released a draft shape paper for The Technologies, which
provides a proposal for the direction of the Australian Curriculum for
ICT/IT. This proposal is in addition to the learning continuum that has been
published for ICT as a general capability.

Come along to consultation forum held at Melbourne High School to provide
feedback on the proposal shape and organisation of the ICT/IT curriculum
from F (foundation or first year of schooling) to year 12. Your viewpoints
will contribute to Victoria's response to the shape paper. The session will
primarily focus on providing feedback on key questions, following an
introduction to ACARA's curriculum design process.

This is a critical stage in the curriculum development process, and your say
is vital in shaping how ICT/IT will be represented in the Australian
Curriculum. Be proactive and have your opinions heard now.

Presenter: Paula Christophersen
Paula Christophersen is the VCE IT Curriculum Manager at the VCAA. Paula has
been involved in the review and development of many VCE IT study designs and
in the quality assessment procedures applied through coursework audits.

Hi Folks,

Please excuse any cross posting

The VITTA Video Challenge (formally 3in6/1in6) is coming up soon (entries due on 18th May)

Ideally we would like you to run the comp for 6 hours on the first week of May - if not possible, then make sure it is ready prior to the 18th May.

The new website has been delayed so I have put all the important info onto my site ...

http://timkitchen.net/vittachallenge/

Online registation is not available at this stage so email me<mailto:tkitchen at strathcona.vic.edu.au> with the name of the school and the category/s you hope to enter (use the email title 'Video Challenge 2012').

Note that this year only one entry per category is permitted - you may like to run your own mini film festival to decide which film in each category will represent your school.

Ta

Tim Kitchen

VITTA
