Student ICT Conference at MacRob

Mac.Robertson Girls’ High School is one of the highest achieving schools in Victoria. The school’s ICT Captains Amna & Grace invited me to keynote their 2024 ICT Conference on Friday 16th August which was organised by a committee of students from Years 9 to 12.

The event commenced with an expo featuring displays from The University of Melbourne, RMIT and Monash. Then the students listened to my keynote which included a number of interactive activities involving a range of Adobe applications.

The Victorian government provide the Adobe Creative Cloud to all of their secondary schools.

Ivanhoe Grammar – Staff PL

I was invited to run a series of workshops at the Ivanhoe Grammar staff Professional Learning Day on August 9 titled “Transforming Learning: How to flourish in a digital world”.

The focus of my most of my workshops was introducing the teachers to Adobe Express and sharing how and why it is such an amazing creativity and productivity tool for any subject and year level.

Jacinta Patterson (Head of Pedagogy ‑ The Arts) also invited me to run a special ‘What’s new at Adobe’ session with the Arts teachers.

Special thank you to Brayden Stone (Director of Ivanhoe Institute), Steve Brophy (Director of Digital Transformation) and Jacinta Patterson for inviting me to be involved.
