What's new at the VITTA Annual Conference?

New events this year include Pre-conference workshops delivering hands-on training in a variety of programs, as well as workshops in leadership strategies. VITTA will also be hosting the inaugural Music and Media program throughout the conference, showcasing the very latest developments in digital music and media technology.

Meet Ty and Blake in the Nintendo Games Room where they will share their tips and tricks for introducing games for learning and how this can be mapped to VELS.

Thought Leadership
A Thought Leadership Q & A forum led by a panel of leading thinkers and educators promises to be an unmissable event at this year's conference.

ICT for every teacher
The Slide to Open - digital learning conference will offer a rich and exciting program for all teachers.  We have sessions for teachers delivering the core VCE and VET curriculum in both the Information Technology and the Multimedia domains, sessions on VELS, a focus on primary school teachers on the Tuesday and special programs for Principals, ICT Leaders and Early Years educators that run concurrent to the general program. The conference will continue to provide exclusive seminars and workshops with keynote speakers Larry Johnson, Steve Hargadon and Sandy Phillips, delivering expertise in innovative teaching and learning approaches for contemporary learning.
