Digital Technologies
Back to Art, Design and Technologies

What will be in the course?

Digital Technologies is extremely flexible at the Year 12 level with a focus on student choice, initiative and entrepreneurship. The course content is based on student interest and is centred around programming skills. In the past, students have used Arduinos with Raspberry Pis to collect and analyse sound data in the Centre for Senior Learning, created interactive voting websites for Triple J and applied facial recognition to automatically sort and tag party photographs. Depending on student interests and skills, it is also possible to explore game and app development. The course culminates in a term-long major project, where students make a software solution to help others. This course also includes the necessary skills of data analysis and the research of ethical issues in digital technologies, so that students are empowered to develop products that improve the lives of others.
