[Year 12 SofDev] Please thank Mark Kelly for all he has done for us

[Simone Tynan]

Hi all,

When I started teaching IT to seniors in 2004 it was a daunting task. I was lucky to stumble over Marks pages in the internet. During my first years I used the site to ensure I was on track. Today, the link is one I introduce all my students (both in SD and ITA) to in their first lesson. They are shown how to use it as another resource to consolidate their understanding. It has been a blessing throughout the comparatively short time I have been teaching VCE IT. 

With thanks (and I have not been hit by a falling elephant, yet! Thanks for the warning!!)

Simone

Hi folks,
 
  It may or may not be entirely in the public sphere that our very special colleague Mark Kelly has decided to retire from the day to day pleasures of teaching teenagers in the school system.  He stresses this is retirement from the Department and not from our community for which we are grateful.
 
It would fill many pages to itemise all that Mark has done for us to help with our VCE IT teaching, assessment and exam preparation.
So how do we do justice to all this selfless giving, hundreds and hundreds of hours of preparation to make available web content that we can just lift and use in class ?  We certainly cannot repay Mark for all he has done but in our own way express our thanks for his assistance, moral support and ever present community contribution to support everyone in their day to day challenges of delivering a fast changing IT curriculum.
 
Please feel free to express your thanks here and also detail how Mark’s help has influenced and supported your work as a teacher.
 
 
Kind Regards
