THREE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY dollars to present for two days?

</div>
<div>Golly. That's <b>real</b> incentive to spend many hours preparing a presentation or two.</div>

<div>Memo to DLTV: I offered to present if a cancellation occurred and you needed someone to fill in. I withdraw that offer.</div>

Well that's disgraceful.

</div>
<div>I would think that a speaker should get a delicious supper, a munchy meal and bubbly evening fellowship for their trouble - which has probably been several hours of preparation (and that's conservative). </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>That's a bit disappointing...</div>
<div>Not quite = yes. Calling it "just chipping in" is a little patronising.</div>

put their hand up to contribute.

<div>Medicine has an interesting “no free lunch” group has some very controversial but politically correct things to say about freebies including free conference invites. When I read this, I thought of the many teachers I have seen (including myself) gathering
up the free writing pads and pens. Ouch .. <a href="http://nofreelunch.org/news.htm" target="_blank">

<div>I agree Bill, it is never an easy decision for any group to charge speakers but it does keeps the cost down for those that do register. The program is quite full and worth glancing over on the DLTV website.</div>

<div style="word-wrap:break-word">Thanks Paula, it is certainly a great chance for us all to brush up on the new VCE study design beyond a casual read whilst networking with other VCE IT teachers who are similarly planning the 2016 courses. I have enjoyed going
over the show recordings too. Thank you for all your work with this and the DLTV office team for making this a focus at the conference.

Dear colleagues
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Digital Learning and Teaching Victoria is holding its second conference on 25 and 26 July at Swinburne University of Technology. In addition to a range of streams focusing on Prep to year 10, there is a stream dedicated to VCE IT/Computing (both Friday
and Saturday) and a stream for VCE Algorithmics (Friday only).</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I would strongly recommend that you come along to this conference, particularly as the new study design is being introduced in 2016. Even if you attended an Implementation workshop this term (VCAA/DLTV program) you will have a chance to both broaden and
deepen your knowledge of the study design at this conference. Also on Saturday there is a session focusing on past student performances in IT apps and Sof Dev, some of which is not typically available to the public.<br>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Have a look at the program and register!</div>
