Subject: [Informatics] Digital Technologies F-10 Course Semester 1 and Essential Learnings documents

Hi there all fellow list subscribers,

At the tail end of last year I requested any samples of course outlines etc. that anyone had developed around the new F-10 Digital Technologies Victorian Curriculum.

Like many schools, IT in our school had almost gone the way of the dinosaur until the decision was made to take on the VC from day one this year, thereby requiring the instant introduction of Digital Technologies F-10 and virtually zero current documentation to rehash it from.

Starting with virtually nothing, I have developed the attached outline for Semester 1 and am keen to share it with the Year 7-10 IT list as it seems little seems to happen on that list (at least compared to the Informatics list).

For those of you who are in schools who are using the PLC (Professional Learning Communities) model I have also attached an Essential Learnings spreadsheet for Digital Technologies F-10 that may be useful to you as well.

Both of these documents are my best attempts and are subject to revision, especially the Essential Learnings one. It was incredibly difficult to tell what was essential and what was not, as there were little if any current documents on the ground to base decisions around.

Hope they're helpful to someone else out there - there's 2 week's of holiday work in them.

Feel free to have a gander and let me know what you think. Positive comments are especially welcome.
Enjoy.

Cheers,
