This newsletter from the Digital Technologies in Focus project includes information about an On Country staff development day with Leonara District High School, cybersecurity, the Australian Curriculum, and useful resources.
Collect data on the biodiversity in garden beds around your school to measure the biodiversity (that is the different types of plants and animals). Explore ways to represent and present data. This lesson was devised by Linda McIver, Australian Data Science Education Institute.
Retell the story of the Three Little pigs using a light sensing robot such as Ozobot.

A glyph is a pictorial representation of data, in this case, to be presented as a digital artwork. The task caters for students at different levels. Teachers use the checklist provided to assess students and record observations.
This lesson provides an opportunity to incorporate representation of data using a relevant context being studied in the classroom. Students represent an object using a line drawing, focusing on the features of the object that enable it to be easily recognised. Students experiment with creating representations using an AI ...
In this lesson students use BeeBots and Scratch Junior to synthesize what they know about Bees and are introduced to mapping concepts. This lesson idea was created by Karen Butler.
Students are introduced to the Bee-Bot as a robotic device. They learn about what the Bee-Bot is, the functions and how the Bee-Bot can be used for specific purposes. They learn how to develop a sequence of steps for the Bee-Bot to follow. This lesson idea was created by Rebecca Vivian.
Play a variation of the game ‘Simon Says’ to develop understanding of sequencing and instructions in programming.
Students explore a sequence of steps using Bee-Bots in the context of familiar narratives. They navigate a Bee-Bot to events within the story, first as a whole class and then in small groups. This activity can be integrated with English and the exploration of narratives. This lesson idea was created by Rebecca Vivian.
Use these challenges created by Kylie Docherty, QSITE to provide opportunities for students to learn how to design and follow a series of steps to program Blue-Bot.
Write a set of instructions that program a Bee-Bot to move to letters to spell out a word on an alphabet grid.
In this activity, students learn about digital systems and how a circuit works using the Makey Makey toolkit. They sort conductive and nonconductive items into groups using an experimental approach. This lesson idea was created by Rebecca Vivian.
Order images to show a sequence of personal events or milestones such as birth, first tooth, beginning to crawl.
Discuss emotions as a class, and introduce the idea of artificial intelligence (AI). This lesson can also be used to introduce image classification – a key application of AI. Developed in collaboration with Digital Technologies Institute.
Create a model using snap blocks 1 block high and create a code so someone else can build your model.
In this lesson sequence, students learn about the characteristics and needs of living things. They recognise that living things have basic needs including air, food and water. Students apply their learning by investigating the growth of a living thing.
In this lesson sequence, students focus on the observable features of living things and their environment. Students follow and represent sequences of steps and decisions (algorithms) to solve problems.
In this lesson, students will explore a story by an Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander author that has a sequence that can be followed. Students will sequence the main elements or steps in the story in their own way and share with peers.
This sample assessment task has been prepared to assist teachers with the implementation of the Australian Curriculum: Digital Technologies, with a particular focus on data. It shows how aspects of the Digital Technologies curriculum related to data can be assessed using contexts from other learning areas and subjects. ...
