Teachers in the Latrobe Valley and surrounds are invited to participate in a Game Lessons professional development day on Thursday 15 November. Participants will in turn become founding members of the Australian Centre for the Moving Image’s (ACMI) new Game Lessons Victoria-wide network, which helps develop teaching and learning resources to activate the untapped potential of videogames in the classroom. Game Lessons is designed to support teachers to create, access and share well-designed lesson plans for impactful and meaningful learning experiences.
ACMI wants primary and seconary teachers across all learning areas to be aware that they don’t need to be gamers to bring fresh, engaging, real-world learning to the classroom, using videogames.
This session, for primary and secondary teachers, will run from 9.30am – 2.30pm on Thursday 15 November at 138 Commercial Road, Morwell. Limited funding is available towards casual relief teacher costs. Contact vincent.trundle@acmi.net.au
