Using Microsoft OneNote to Transform Learning

Explore how educational technologies can be applied to promote student driven learning, develop creative and critical thinkers and promote strong 21st century collaboration.

About this event:

Lenovo, Microsoft and Swinburne have come together to deliver two practical, hands-on tours of Microsoft OneNote® and how it can be used to improve teaching and learning.

Participants will be provided with a Lenovo Tablet PC for the day and will have the opportunity to explore the pedagogical potential provided by devices which allow multi-touch and digitised pen functionality in a Windows 8 environment.

Facilitated by experienced Educators, each session will include a focus on how to use Microsoft OneNote® to collaborate, research and create curricula. Participants will explore how to set up a collaborative space, use audio and video to provide more powerful feedback and assessment, and use OneNote as a tool for research and organising data. The Consultants will provide practical classroom examples and ideas to assist teachers in applying new insights.

Amanda Frampton
ICT Education Specialist – Expanding Learning Horizons

View Bio...

Amanda has 7 years' experience as a primary school teacher. She has always led by example when implementing ICT into the curriculum, creating engaging and innovative digital learning environments for her students. During her time as ICT Coordinator, Amanda inspired and enabled staff to effectively integrate ICT into all aspects of their curriculum.

Amanda supported teachers on their journey to acquire departmental ICT qualifications and managed the implementation of Interactive Whiteboards and other technologies in the classrooms. More recently, Amanda has been working collaboratively with colleagues to plan units of work that meet both the requirements of the Australian National Curriculum and realise the potential of ICT as a tool to facilitate learning

Amanda believes that through the integration of ICT into the classroom, teaching will move from a focus of imparting knowledge-to-knowledge acquisition. This will equip learners with the necessary skills to be active participants in an evolving digital world.
