<font face="Calibri">Hi Janet,<br>
Don't worry about Office 2007, you will adapt quickly. I have been
using it for as long as it has been in schools (can't remember exactly
when it arrived) and when I go back to 2003 on my old home desktop it
feels weird.<br>
Yes FrontPage is dead as the bloated and w3c non-compliant code it
created were surely an embarrassment to MS<br>
<br>
Expression Web has now replaced FP and will give Dreamweaver a run for
its money. if you are a DEECeaseD school your tech should have it in
stock now!<br>
<br>
See <a href="http://www.vitta2008.wikispaces.com" target="_blank">www.vitta2008.wikispaces.com</a> for the ppt from the EW session 1208
presented at the conference (contains some basic instructions and links
to more tutorials etc)<br>
<br>
Remember as an alternative to MS Office and Expression Web you can
always use OpenOffice.org, and a great OS web design program to use
(WYSIWYG) is Kompozer<br>
<br>
Cheers<br>

<pre>I think you'll find you have a bit more time up your sleeve, Kent, the study design is current for 2007 - 2010 (inclusive), so you don't have to worry about the new course until 2011. Also, our technician is dragging me (kicking and screaming) into Office 2007 next year and I believe that Front Page no longer exists - does anyone have experience with the replacement program, Expression Web (or something similar)

Subject: Planners for next year...
Yes, I know its probably a bit early but hey, just figured I'd post this planner for IT Apps Unit 3 so those who 'may' wish to spend 10 seconds over the break thinking about what they will do next year can have a starting point. Also, there may be some first year or returning to teaching personnel out there who could use it.
etc..etc..etc..
As per usual, if you dont want it..there's probably a key on your keyboard with DEL or similar on it (use it if you wish!).
Oh, BTW, I was happy with the 'content' at the conference..just so you know peoples, but plenty of people have already thanked VITTA and sponsors so I'll just move on now....
Its always nice to be stopped, cornered and chatted to (as Phil did to me whilst I was munching on a quiche! - so its true...real I.T. teachers DO eat quiche!!!!) Plus, I bumped into some former colleagues..its always nice to see some previous faces..
Anyone out there have any ideas on what some of the new content in the 'revised study design' may contain for our courses? It'd be nice to know early so we could actually train/PD/study up for the new bits during the 2009 year for 2010. (crash course learning isn't a big skill of mine, but its one I am getting familiar with! )
Also, anyone with a VET Cert II / III in I.T. ICA2/30105 course planner they may wish to share I'd be happy to have a copy to 'assist' my planning over the break. Naturally, it will be tailored to cover my student's needs / and software available here.
Cheers folks..

The one I need is, essentially, a curriculum based role (I think?). A system manager role statement would be handy too, if you have one available.

It varies from place to place.
Is it a curriculum role, a systems manager role, or both?

Anyone got one handy they would care to share?
