[vet-mm] DEECD request for software used in schools

[Arnott, Suzanne S]

Hey Kevork...
I had a look and all of my preferred software was there...
sounds like this may be the basis for the software roll out through the Dept...
can we put the photoshop/adobe suite stuff in big letters? hehehe to make it more emphasised? It really is a lynch pin for most of our creative works.

As NSW's rollout of S/W included the Adobe Suite I am hoping our dept will also include this (how it works on the netbooks is beyond me)

Hi Folks,

 Sorry for the cross posts.

This request comes from Cecilie Murray , from Delphian Learning and formerly with VITTA .

DEECD  is working on rolling out a new image  to be  a default list  of all software including standards, free and commercial software that can be used across the curriculum in all learning areas for all computers - notebooks,netbooks and desktops.

They request the 9-12 area in particular as it is proving to be tricky. We are asked to advise on software products that should be included on the list for any
year level, but particularly for 9-12s?

In order to manage this process reasonably efficiently I  have set up a wiki at www.edulists,com.au  called Software Yr 9 - 12 that anyone can post to once registered.
 Please add you input if you wish to have a say on this process.


With thanks
