It will also provide resources and example learning activities for the Digital Technologies section of the new national curriculum, from Kindergarten to Year 6. The University’s Computer Science Education Research Group is using Google’s open source platform to build the course.
The course will run for 8-10 weeks and will be open for access at any time once released online. Participants will complete a portfolio of activities to be assessed, with feedback, and a certificate for successful completion. Any educator interested in participating can register here.
We believe successfully implementing this curriculum will be an important first step in preparing students to become the creators and innovators of the future and want to do our part to support Australia’s teachers.
