This one day, free intensive for years 7-10 Design & Technologies teachers nurtures excellence in design education in Victoria. Supported by Creative Futures Ltd, it is free for educators and jointly facilitated by Museums Victoria Education and DATTA Vic. 

This workshop is a hands-on experience, where participants collaborate to identify new and engaging ways to deliver the Design & Technologies curriculum in the classroom.

The day will start with a visit to Rome: Empire, Power, People to explore the ground-breaking inventions that were developed over 2000 years ago. Then through a series of design sprints, you'll consider what innovations we will need for a sustainable tomorrow while learning from yesterday's innovations . You'll gain confidence in getting your students to use the design process and speculative thinking to create designed solutions for future communities.
