The Learning Place is offering this free online course that gives you a look at the C2C digital technologies curriculum:
In a rapidly changing world, the influence of technology has never been more evident. The demands of this changing landscape require serious consideration and timely action to ensure our schools, our staff and our students are able to engage with a future that will demand and celebrate creative problem-solvers, innovators and entrepreneurs.
From 2016, all State Schools in Queensland from Prep through to Year 10 will commence offering Australian Curriculum: Digital Technologies as part of their curriculum. Schools will be supported through a number of departmental initiatives including:
- Curriculum into the Classroom (C2C) materials
- Queensland Coding Academy (for students).
Both these initiatives are central to the Advancing Education action plan in which Coding and Robotics are identified (in paper #codingcounts ) as key to developing the capacity of our students as future digital thinkers, creators and innovators.
