25.01.2022 ACU have 16 more placements that need mentoring. If you or a staff member could be of help there is some flexibility, for example if there is a specialisation that you do not offer that isn’t a problem as they can teach Tech Mandatory, Design and Technology and IST/Stage 5 Computing and the placement location can be 50 minutes from home. ACU contact is Miriam Tanti - please message for email details or see ESNET for contact info.

25.01.2022 This is Sandy. He lives in Ballarat. He's co-founder of Gekko Systems manufacturing. And he invented a portable ventilator. ... In his backyard shed. In less than seven days. He had some help from a local anaesthetist and a 3D printer business. A few pieces of equipment were donated from the hospital to make sure it would work with a standard set-up. And a Victorian Government development grant helped to cover the early costs. By the end of the week, a balloon was hooked up to the scratch-made ventilator, inflating and deflating, just as a lung would. Since then it's been fast-tracked through approval, with over 150 on order already. And because Sandy's design is fully portable and can run off a car battery, it could change the game in developing countries. It's projects like these that demonstrate the ingenuity of Victorian manufacturing. And we'll back them all the way.

13.01.2022 We are all highly capable makers, some of us are investors, many like to tinker and most can fix anything. . . . Surely that's an invitation to apply! https://www.mediaweek.com.au/making-it-australia-2021/

13.01.2022 Teaching Technologies Online During Covid-19 The COVID-19 pandemic rapidly plunged Australian teachers into the world of online teaching and learning - and still is for our Victorian colleagues. As a profession we need to have a broad-based snap-shot of what actually occurred during 2020 from the teachers' perspective in both Digital and Design and Technologies.... Through this short survey we are hoping to identify challenges, successes and innovative and engaging practices that evolved. This survey should only take 10 minutes to complete and it will be shared throughout national memberships of DATTA (iTE, DATTA VIC, DATTA QLD, DATTA SA, DATTA WA) and ACCE - all members and mailing lists of these associations are encouraged to respond individually. https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/TeachingTechnologiesOnline

10.01.2022 Hope you have all had a restful break, welcome to 2021! I would like to congratulate Mark Tyler for his work as NESA Inspector, Technology Education for the past 5 years. Mark has announced his retirement from the position, but will continue teaching for a while yet. It will be great to have him back in the classroom where his students and colleagues can continue to learn from him. Thanks Mark, for the work you've done with NESA and your support of Technologies education. Tow...ard the end of 2020 and already this year I've had a few people ask me about developing a faculty handbook. This seems to be required by more and more schools, and so this will be available for members to download, check out the iTE Resources section on our website. If you need help with programs, workbooks or other resources we are here to support. If you'd like to contribute anything to share let us know. 2021 is looking like another interesting and busy year, with the Curriculum Reform development, professional learning changes, teacher training and the continued impact of Covid-19. If you have questions or comments for the iTE don't hesitate to contact us. The more people are involved the more we can get done. Have a great 2021 and keep promoting the great work you and your students are doing within the school, in the wider community, with your local MP and with the iTE. Yours sincerely, Grant Byrne Institute of Technology Education President

10.01.2022 After I finished school I used to work in a factory that made these aluminium cans at Wetherill Park. What I enjoyed about this job was the numerous processes that were involved to make something as simple as an aluminium can. The narrator in this video does a great job in describing and justifying the individual processes.
