If you want to know how to use Scratch more effectively in your classroom, how to assess a Digital Technologies content description, you want to learn about the Master of Education (Digital Technologies) degree or just need help debugging a tricky programming problem, then we can help!
Drop in during this webinar session to ask questions about the Digital Technologies curriculum and how to teach it. This is your oppurtunity to speak with experts about teaching the DT curriculum and programming in general.
If you would like you can send your question in advance. Just email (help@aca.edu.au) or talk to us on social media. We'll discuss your questions during the webinar!
Who Should Attend?
ACA Webinars
For the past 3 years, the Australian Computing Academy has been providing comprehensive professional development for teachers, supporting the implementation of the Australian Curriculum: Digital Technologies. We are pleased to be able to continue this work in a modified online mode whilst we are facing current social distancing requirements.
Our webinars will provide an overview of the Australian Curriculum: Digital Technologies and explore some of the key concepts of the curriculum.
You may attend one or all of the seminars, it is up to you! If you have been unable to attend one of our PD workshops in person this is a good opportunity to take part. It is also a great chance for a refresher on the curriculum if you have already attended one of our in-person workshops.
Our webinar series are recorded and made available on our website. This "office hours" webinar is available for attendees only.
Is there a cost?
No.
