[Yr7-10it] [Informatics] Digital Technologies F-10 Course Semester 1 and Essential Learnings documents

Tue Mar 1 09:31:34 AEDT 2016

Hi everyone,

Yes, I'm reading it, and there have been only a few posts since I joined, but some useful info from people implementing Digital Technologies. Hopefully I will have some material to share soon too. Informatics list is quite busy at the moment with the new study design keeping us occupied!

Cheers,
Richard
