**Professional development of teachers.**
Tanya and Deirdre participated in a 40 hour Participant [|Intel Teach to the Future] in 2006 run at Wedderburn College by Anne Baird who is a Senior Trainer with Intel Victoria as well as the Leading Schools Manager at Wedderburn College. Through that course they developed their unit around //**minibeasts.**// They created a set of Curriculum Framing Questions that established and directed the learning and outcomes that they wanted to achieve. You can view a version of this unit of work here.

A goal of the course was to help teachers use the power of eLearning and ICT to spark student imagination and ultimately move them toward greater learning. There is an emphasis on hands on learning and the creation of a unit of work with assessment tools that adhere to the state curriculum.
