[Year 12 SofDev] 2016 Transition for Software Development

[Laurie Savage]

I’m using the transition period to try to get the students familiar with PHP so they don’t hit 2016 too cold. I’m going to use Codeacademy and its teacher tools and set some tasks for completion for holiday homework. My kids have a long journey ahead of them but they’re excited!

Year 12 Transition begins next week for us and even though I will not be the teacher of this subject next year, I will be taking the orientation classes. I have never taught this subject before and don’t even know where to start. As it is a new study design, just wondering if anyone has thought about what they will be doing for orientation time and might be so kind to share with me (and others).
