Dissappointingly, it seems the North Western region of Victoria has missed out on a venue for these 'rural' PD sessions. My nearest is 2hrs away!

What about the PLN network...we didnt seem to hear anything about this before this email.

Scratch up another PD downer for us country folk!

A great PD opportunity is coming to rural and regional Victoria

Integrating ICT Pedagogy into School Communities Workshops

The Federal Government though DEEWR is funding professional development opportunities for teachers in rural and regional Australia. [These are not available in any capital city]

They are targeted at Primary and Post Primary teachers of Mathematics, History, English and the Sciences who wish to integrate ICT more fully into there teaching

As distance is always a consideration for teachers in rural and regional schools, this project has a large online component.  While teachers are bought together for a one day workshop, the rest will build on online support of the workshop convenors and the school teams throughout Victoria [and Australia]

This program joins together school teams who wish to be supported in action learning projects that will more fully integrate ICT into the curriculum

Pre requisites, ..this program is for

1.   Primary teachers and Post Primary teachers of Mathematics, History, English and the Sciences

2.     School teams of 2-5 teachers, [not necessarily from the same faculty or learning team, although they can be!]

3.     Teachers who would like the opportunity to improve the quality of their curriculum design

4.     Teachers who want to meet other like minded teachers

There are no pre-requisites of ICT skill levels, just and interest and desire in integrating ICT into the curriculum

Integrating ICT Pedagogy into School Communities Workshops has three phases

Phase One: Signing up to the project. Joining up with the workshop online site and completing some pre workshop tasks [about 3 hours time commitment between now and October 16th]

Phase Two: Participation in a workshop in which you can bring along a curriculum project that you are working on and get input and online resources to integrate ICT into it. This session will be lead by Hanan Harrison [a noted educator from Queensland] and myself.

Phase Three: A chance to work on your project back at school, but also have the support of the workshop presenters and other teachers involved in this nation wide project

There is a choice of three Victorian workshops

A one day workshop is at Brauer Secondary College, Warrnambool on Tuesday October 13th 2009

A one day workshop at Bairnsdale Secondary College on Thursday October 15th 2009

A one day workshop at Bendigo Senior Secondary College on Friday October 16th 2009
