Australian Curriculum Resources
The Australian Computing Academy provides the intellectual, technical, and practical leadership needed to fulfil the ambitious goals of the Australian Curriculum: Digital Technologies.
The ACA collaborates regularly with education, industry and the broader tech community to champion a deeper understanding of Digital Technologies and their applications in a range of fields, including computer science, data science and cyber security.
The Digital Technologies Challenges are online and unplugged classroom resources that last around 4-5 weeks of classroom time. They will typically require 1-3 hours of classroom time per week. The DT Challenges have been developed by teams of Australian teachers, curriculum experts and computer scientists. DT Challenges come with lesson plans, a curriculum mapping, teacher notes, support and dashboards.
Dive Into Code Mini Challenges
The Dive into Code Mini DT Challenges are online and unplugged classroom resources produced by Australian teachers, curriculum experts and computer scientists that can help your class getting started with Digital Technologies. Compared to the DT Challenges, they are a bit shorter: 1-2 weeks or around 4 hours of class time. DiC Mini DT Challenges come with lesson plans, a curriculum mapping, teacher notes, support and dashboards.
Activities designed to be completed at home with minimal teacher interaction and without computers/internet! Suitable for parents looking to engage their children with Digital Technologies concepts, or for teachers looking to set work for students learning from home.
