[Year 12 IT Apps] AusVELS and Digital Technologies

[Christophersen, Paula P]

Dear colleagues

I'm just alerting you to a VCAA Notice to Schools, which outlines the curriculum and reporting responsibilities that government and Catholic schools have with respect to AusVELS in 2015. Regarding Digital Technologies (one of two subjects within the Technologies Learning Area), schools are expected to begin implementing the curriculum from 2015. This can mean many things for example, a staggered implementation beginning in 2015, with whole-school coverage achieved within three years; a full implementation across a school from 2016 etc. How this done is a school decision. As yet no 'final date' for complete implementation has been published.
