[Yr7-10it] Games programming conference

[Tony Forster]

Attached is the provisional program for the Inaugural Game Programming in
Schools Conference to be held in Melbourne on Friday September 9th 2005.
This project is supported by funding from the Commonwealth Department of
Education, Science and Training under the Australian School Innovation in
Science, Technology and Mathematics (ASISTM) Project.

This conference will explore the learning theory underpinning game
programming in schools. Speakers from around Australia will share best
practice in using game programming as a relevant, authentic and highly
motivating task which develops higher order cognitive and metacognitive
skills. It is a unique opportunity to network with leaders from around
Australia in this rapidly growing area.

We are now taking registrations for this conference. Please contact me if
you would like to present a paper at this exciting conference.
