Subject: Fwd: PixelEd Copyright PD Thursday August 27



Dear DATTA VIC representative,
My name is Marian Stoney and I'm on the Executive of PixelEd, the organisation of Teachers of Multimedia. We are hosting a PD  called Copyright in the Digital Age  presented by Copyright expert  Zoe Rodriguez, on Thursday August 27. It will directly target the knowledge base that teachers require to be able to teach this complex area effectively now that it has such a prominent place in curricula.  Details are below.
Would you please consider passing this information on to your members in the near future? The timeline on this PD is a bit short, but we would like to promote it to as many teachers as possible. It is very reasonably priced as we are not for profit like yourselves,
Thank you,
Yours sincerely,
Marian Stoney
