From the desk of DLTV’s President
Digital Learning and Teaching Victoria are pleased to announce that Dr. Jo Blannin has been elected as our new President. With Jo stepping into this role, this marks the end of Ben Gallagher's term leading our organisation. Over his term, Ben spent many long days and nights working to serve DLTV's members while also teaching in his school. When you consider everything that Ben has achieved while we experienced a global pandemic, it really is worthy of celebration.

Our new virtual modules Digital Technologies in your school are designed to help you and your school get oriented for delivering Digital Technologies, with an emphasis on pedagogy and challenges for delivery. The modules include informative and discussion videos, activities to complete, and opportunities for reflection. Those undertaking the modules can book to attend a live session to discuss the material with others. We didn't want to reinvent the wheel by providing a basic introduction to Digital Technologies curriculum, though we do provide links to recommended starting points. 5 of the 10 planned modules are now available, with others to be released progressively. This resource was made possible with support from the Victorian Department of Education and Training. |
