Hi folks,

Apologies for the cross posting.

The 6 hours of creativity, fun and learning has started. Some schools are spreading the load, some are doing the 6 hours in a day.

There is still time to register for the 2012 VITTA Video Challenge<http://timkitchen.net/vittachallenge/>

At this stage there are only about 8 schools in each of the 3 categories so there is a big chance of sharing in the $3000 worth of prizes on offer.

The completed 1 minute animation or 3 minute film needs to be posted to VITTA<http://www.vitta.org.au/> on the 18th May.

Register today<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dHZQaWFPM2szNUtjdDR4S1RUc3dKdkE6MQ>

COSGAME 2012 - Melbourne Attempting World Record

Melbourne, Australia: The Academy of Interactive Entertainment (AIE),
specialist educator in games, film and 3D animation, are attempting to break
the Guinness World RecordT for 'Largest Crowd dressed as Video Game
Characters' on Saturday the 5th of May 2012, from 11am to 2pm at Federation
Square, Melbourne.

AIE is inviting residents and visitors of Melbourne to attend COSGAME to
help break the world record currently held by Wisconsin, USA with 425
participants. 

Mr. Laurie Costabile, Head of School at AIE Melbourne said, "What a
fantastic event for Melbourne's creative industries. Such a fun way to
support our thriving video games industry. Attempting to break this World
Record will be an enjoyable and entertaining experience for everyone
involved. We are providing show bags for the first 1000 people that register
with many other prizes and giveaways to hand out, that have been generously
donated by our partners".

AIE is demonstrating its support for the Video Games Industry and raising
further awareness for our respected and prosperous industry in Australia.
"The Australian Games Industry is behind some amazing, top selling and award
winning apps created right here in Australia. It is important for us to be
proud of the standard of work we are producing in our own country and this
is one of many unconventional ideas that we've come up with to celebrate
this!", explained Mr. John DeMargheriti, CEO of AIE, Big World, and Micro
Forte Studios. 

All participants must register for this event and abide by the Guinness
World RecordT guidelines in order to be successfully counted towards this

Good afternoon.

 

The new Tomorrow Sport competition for Term 2 is getting underway.  There is
a competition for Years 5 & 6 students and another for years 7 & 8.  We have
new Challenges for the students. 

The Challenges all require some ICT skills and some require mathematical
work and may involve physical education related activities.

 

There is still time for you to sign up and have your students participate in
the competition. There are six new engaging and easy-to-complete Challenges
in the Term 2 competition.  

The Challenges can be completed in a lesson and the results uploaded by your
team captains to the Tomorrow Sport web site. The first Challenge is
available this week.

 

So far all of our teachers have signed up for the Football competition and
we hope you will be able to join up as well. If you send us a list of your
students we will enter the details into the competition. Then you can log in
and manage your students, create teams and team captains and so on.

 

Tell other teachers at your school about Tomorrow Sport. The more teams we
have the better the competition and the better the prizes! So, please tell
the other teachers at your school that there is still time to enter.

We look forward to seeing your students on the Term 2 Leaderboard.

 

You can read about the Tomorrow Sport Pilot in the recent April edition of
INSPIRE the DEECD magazine . The online version of the magazine can be found

Subject: [edugames] Personal digital device use at secondary school surveys

Hi Folks,

Apologies for any cross posting

I'm wanting to gather some data on the use or personal digital devices at secondary schools.

I've linked 3 short (mainly multiple choice) anonymous surveys to this email. One for secondary students, one for secondary teachers and one for parents/guardians. If possible, can you please pass these surveys on to as many secondary students, teachers and parents as possible and ask them to complete them by Wednesday 5pm  this week.


I will be sharing the data as part of my presentation at both the ICT in Education Conference<http://ictev.vic.edu.au/pd/2012/05/26/ictev-2012-creative-connections-state-conference>, the VITTA Conference<http://www.vitta.org.au/2012conferenceinfo/vitta-annual-conference-2012> and the Gender Matter's Conference<http://www.criticalagendas.com.au/20120110544/Victoria/learning-and-teaching-with-technology-gender-matters.html>.

Hi Edulist Folks

I would like to introduce myself. I am Peter Wakefield, Professional
Learning Officer, at  the Victorian Information Technology Teachers
Association (VITTA). I have been fortunate  in joining the dynamic VITTA
team and look forward to developing productive relationships with teachers
and students across the state.

My role at VITTA is to develop Professional Learning in all sectors of
education. My background is in Arts education teaching, branching into
digital arts with early versions of Photoshop. I completed further study in
digital media in the late 90's and have designed and developed an Applied
Design Education Centre in a secondary setting with ICT learning at its
core. I have recently been the program manager at the Digital Learning Hub
at Arts Centre Melbourne. 

 I see ICT as a key element in all learning across and I am looking forward
to playing a role in the development of ICT education, and feel privileged
to be able to facilitate the development of my colleagues in education to
achieve great outcomes for students in emerging and increasingly pervasive
technology.

I am very keen to provide assistance with  the professional learning needs
of   teachers and students and will continue to foster excellence in ICT
education  and look forward to developing strong relationships  within this
community. I would love to get feedback on all of  professional learning
offerings including  VCE IT programs and all relevant areas in this domain.

I am in the office Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Please feel free to contact me.

 

 

Peter Wakefield
