It is much less prescriptive, allowing Seminar held at Scotch College, Val Baird and more judgement by the cataloguer. I gave a presentation on the basics of Resource Description and Access (RDA). Being a qualified RDA is also format neutral, meaning you no Library Technician at the International School longer have to fit your resource into a physical of Western Australia, and solely carrying out the format. It has greater emphasis on intellectual cataloguing, both original and copy, I decided content rather than physical format. While it would be wise for me to get acquainted with format is still important, it is no longer the RDA. After completing a short RDA course primary consideration.

    An overview of Stile, Australia’s #1 science resource provider EXECUTIVE SUMMARY FOR SCHOOL LEADERS Stile | Executive summary for school leaders 2 Table of contents Welcome letter 3 How we are rethinking science education > Our principles 5 > Our pedagogy 7 > Our approach 9 A simple solution > Stile Classroom 12 > Squiz 14 > Professional learning 15 > Stile Concierge 16 Key benefits 17 The Stile community of schools 19 The rest is easy 24 Stile | Executive summary for school leaders 3 It’s time to rethink science at school I’m continuously awestruck by the sheer power of science. In a mere 500 years, a tiny fraction of humanity’s long history, science – and the technological advances that have stemmed from it – has completely transformed every part of our lives. The scale of humanity’s scientific transformation in such a short period is so immense it’s hard to grasp. My grandmother was alive when one of the world’s oldest airlines, Qantas, was born. In her lifetime, flight has become as routine as daily roll call. Disease, famine and the toll of manual labour that once ravaged the world’s population have also been dramatically reduced. Science is at the heart of this progress. Given such incredible advancement, it’s tempting to think that science education must be in pretty good shape. Sadly, it isn’t. We could talk about falling PISA rankings, or declining STEM enrolments. But instead, and perhaps more importantly, let’s consider the world to which our students will graduate. A world of “fake news” and “alternative facts”.

  • Camp Hero, Schools Program and Hero Events Programs, There Are More Than 30 Leaders, Volunteers and Mentors Driving the Zero2hero Mission Forward
    1 PAGE PAGE 4 OUR STORY 18 OUR PROGRAMS 6 MISSION 30 FUNDRAISING 8 VISION 32 STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT 10 STRATEGIC APPROACH 34 FINANCIALS 12 MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN 36 CAMP STORIES 14 MESSAGE FROM ASHLEE 42 SUPPORT SERVICES After losing her stepfather to suicide, Ashlee Harrison was immediately compelled to do something about an issue that affects and devastates so many. Driven to make a meaningful and tangible difference, Ashlee harnessed her conviction and focused on bringing people together to run events and fundraisers that spread the message of suicide prevention, and in 2009, zero2hero was born. Although the initial events were successful, when Ashlee saw the statistics on when mental health issues are formed, she knew that the team’s focus needed to be at the source of the issues – it needed to be on educating young people. The conversation around youth mental health was one that couldn’t be ignored, and in 2012, zero2hero moved into the youth sector, starting a school’s program, launching a camp for students, partnering with other organisations to deliver support, and creating youth focused fundraiser and awareness events. Since then, the reach and impact of zero2hero has grown, and so too has the team. Today, zero2hero is reaching more than 70,000 young people each year, and through the Camp Hero, Schools Program and Hero Events programs, there are more than 30 leaders, volunteers and mentors driving the zero2hero mission forward. 4 5 We provide innovative school- based programs for children and young people that develop their understanding of mental health issues and awareness of mental health services.
