[Yr11 Information Technology] Curriculum Enrichment Programs for Schools at Swinburne (apologies for cross posts)

[Robert Mercer]

Hello Everyone,

I have been working with Swinburne's Faculty of Information and Communication Technologies to develop curriculum specific and innovative programs for students in Years 9-12.  My goal as an ICT educator is to raise the profile of ICT in schools, whilst developing new programs and workshops to assist current secondary school students and their teachers.

In conjunction with Swinburne's academic staff, new hands-on VCE curriculum focussed workshops have been designed and are now available for students and teachers.  These workshops are linked to VCE Business Management, IT Applications, Physics and Software Development and will give students hands on experience and theoretic knowledge to enrich their current learning. In addition to these programs we also have workshops and presentations available to years 9 and 10 students (full details can be seen in the attached guide).

Having worked as a secondary school IT teacher I know first hand how beneficial such workshops are for students and teachers.  

Attached to this email is the Swinburne ICT Education Programs guide that contains information for all programs. For further information visit:

Please contact me to if you would like to discuss these workshops further.


Cheers,
