Hi all,

An exciting opportunity has come our way, for showcasing how new age technology could be used in increasing student engagement within the education sector for K-12 schools.

Therefore we are looking for teacher volunteers who are seeking a Professional Development opportunity to work with new age technology.
The involvement will be hands-on, require lateral thinking, intellectually stimulating and fun.
Estimated availability required: 2 weeks in early January 2017.

There may be a requirement post the initial development & collaboration stage to present a demo within a school environment (possibly in February 2017 - timeframes To Be Confirmed)

Teacher requirements x 2 with experience in the following areas -


  *   Familiarity with the Australian Curriculum and actual teaching experience (5 to 8 years minimum)
  *   Willingness to explore with technology in the classroom
  *   Upper Primary (Class 4-6), Middle School (Class 7-8) or Senior Years (Class 9-10)
  *   Subject areas of expertise: English, Social Studies, Science or Art
  *   Reasonable proficiency levels in Microsoft Word, Excel, Powerpoint, Publisher, Adobe Photoshop or other popular Graphics packages
  *   Any instructional design knowledge / experience or understanding would be a bonus
