The ACA is joining forces with Grok Learning to form a new organisation Grok Academy. This new organisation will be your one stop shop for all your digital technologies needs. For more information go to grokacademy.org
In this webinar we’ll explore the Impact key concept.
Impact examines the uses of technology, how it meets our needs and impacts us positively and negatively, so we can prime students to create thoughtfully in the future.
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.
The webinars will be recorded and made available on our website.
Is there a cost?
No.
