<p class=MsoNormal>Hi everyone (and apologies for the cross posts),<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>The Call for Papers for the 2009 VITTA Conference is now
open! <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I want to encourage you all to get involved in what is
arguably the premier IT education conference in Australia – and a great
showcase of the fantastic things that VITTA members and others are doing at
their schools.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>You can follow the link below to get more information on the
conference and the strands that we are promoting:<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>We are continuing our support for Primary and Secondary
teachers, Multimedia teachers, Early Learning staff, Principals and ICT
Leaders, Technical staff, Tertiary Institutions as we have in previous years –
and our Conference continues to grow in ways which are very exciting. We are
offering a dedicated strand on music technology this year which is shaping up
as quite a dynamic and exciting area. A new VCE study design is just
around the corner, and there will be sessions that focus on VCE IT studies.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>The rewards in presenting are many – it is an
opportunity to network with colleagues, share ideas and resources, get some
feedback as well as add an item to your CV! So have a go and put in an
abstract today – by yourself or with a colleague – remember that
you also save yourself registration fees! All the best – and hope
to be reading some of your abstracts soon! <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
