ANNOUNCEMENTS

From the desk of DLTV President Ben Gallaher

Hi All,

As the year draws to a close, on behalf of all the DLTV staff and committee members I’d just like to take this opportunity to wish you and your families  a happy and safe Christmas.

We have some exciting ideas for 2022 and hopefully school will be returning to a more normal setting.

Don’t forget to register at our website for DigiCon in February and take advantage of our early bird pricing before the 20th of December

We will be taking a short break, but the office will reopen on the 3rd of January 2022 of you need anything.

Thanks, Ben

President of DLTV and ACCE

SURVEY REQUEST: AI In the Classroom

Have you thought about using Augmented Reality in your classroom?

If you’re an educator and you’ve heard of Augmented Reality (or are considering using it in your classroom), please consider filling in this survey and sharing it with anyone else you know that might be interested. Your thoughts - good or bad - are appreciated. The survey will take approximately 15 minutes to complete and responses are anonymous. http://go.unimelb.edu.au/8cgi

PROFESSIONAL LEARNING: Microsoft's Back to school EduDay

Start 2022 strong by attending Microsoft’s Back-to-School EduDay virtual teacher training event on Monday, 17th January 2022 12PM- 4PM AEST.

If we have learned one thing recently, it is the power of technology in teaching and connection in learning.

Join us for our upcoming EduDay on Monday, 17th January 2022, an event that will equip K-12 teachers with the tools to enable even more impactful teaching and lasting learning.

Start the new school year with a clean slate; hear Microsoft specialists and experienced Microsoft Innovative Educators Experts share how you can make the most of educational technologies you already have.

Whether you’re just getting started or wanting to do more with your existing Microsoft tech, we’ll have two streams for you to choose from – beginner or more advanced.

Join us for this free interactive session to:

1. Learn how to use the Office 365 suite to its full potential in your classroom, or if you are in the advanced stream learn how you can take it to the next level.
2. Discover new Office 365 features that will help you save time and empower your students.
3. Hear about Microsoft’s vision for the Inclusive Classroom and how you can support all your students in 2022, with technologies like Immersive Reader, Learning Tools and more.
