The South Western Region is characterized by isolation, small schools, high teacher and principal turnover, teacher and principal inexperience, student mobility, pockets of social and economic deprivation, and many students of aboriginal origin. For the past 2 years, advancements in the region's educational technology has been dominated by the Queensland Department of Education Learning Systems Project. The project encompasses: (1) establishment of business education centers in secondary schools, focusing on use of computers and other modern business technologies;(2) implementation of electronic learning centers in primary and secondary schools; (3) introduction of a practical computer methods course into years 11 and 12;(4) installation and establishment of telelearning sites in remote areas, thereby greatly expanding curriculum options; and (5) extensive professional development for classroom teachers and school communities. Regional initiatives have provided equipment and training related to electronic communication since 1987, supplied facsimile machines to all of the smallest and most isolated schools, and created an integrated program for the repair and maintenance of all computer hardware and accessories.

The South Western Region extends approximatelyelevenhundred kilometres from east to west and five hundred kilometresfrom north to south. The area may be regarded as a broad transition zonebetween the fertile farming lands of the Darling Downs, through themulga scrub and open grasslands, to the desert marginsof Central Australia.

Introduction In the South WesternEducational Region thearea of technology over the past two anda half years has been dominated bythe Queensland Department of Education LearningSystems Project. The Learning Systems Project in the South Western Regionencompasses: * the establishment ofBusiness Education Centres insecondary schools antsecondary departments; * the implementationofElectronic Learning Centres inprimary and secondary schools; 188 4 Learning Technology Programs in an isolated Region - ClassroomApplications of Technology * the introduction of the subject Practical ComputerMethods into Year 11 and 12; )k the installation and establishment of Tele learningsites for remote areas; and * extensive professional development forclassroom teachers and school communities. The South Western Region adopted theseprojects and a plan for implementation over a three year period wasdevised by the regional consultants, one full-time person based in Roma and onepart-time person based in Charleville. These consultants cover vastdistances each week working in secondary schools through to preschools,classrooms to property homes. Quality communication is essential in our region whereisolation is caused by distance and lack of facilities.For this reason, a regional initiativeof providing equipment and training for the use of electroniccommunication via Key link was approved, and a program put in place in1987.In 1990 this program has been extended to the supply offacsimile machines to all class four and five schools (one to four teacher schools) in theregion. Due to the location of these schools and irregular, infrequent mailservices, this type of technological equipment attempts to overcome some ofthe frustration caused by the isolation and distance factors. This highprofile program must be continually maintained due to the high turnover ofstaff in our small schools. In addition to these projects, an integrated programfor the repair and maintenance ofallcomputer hardware and accessorieshas been continually serviced and maintained. The South WesternRegion is the only educational region in Queensland which can boast that everyschool in the region has their own computers, modem and printersfor daily use by students. With this large volume of equipment, this maintenanceand repair program is very necessary. We are verylucky that the South Western Priority Country Area Program assists our isolated schoolsin this matter. Finally,theprovisionandinstallationofcomputers andelectronic communication facilities for use by children on propertiesstudying through 5 169 Learning Technology Programs In an Isolated Region- Classroom Applications of Technology the School of Distance Education isan important facet of technology in our region.Both the Queensland Department of Education and the Priority Country Area Program have contributed to thisinitiative which has proven to be a success. Learning Systems Project The Learning Systems Project isa $20 million, three year project initiated by the Queensland Government to enhancethe use of technology in education. Rather than distribute computer equipmentwidely across as many schools as possible, the strategy adopted in the Learning Systems Projectis to concentrate critical masses of equipment and skillsto ensure effective change in the outcomes of learning. The Learning Systems Projectwas planned to build expertise, layer by layer, throughout the state.Equipment has been deployed where itcan best sow the seeds of future developmentin learning technologies.Early work in computer education isnow providing the basis for the continuing implementation of this important project. Business Education Centres Technological change over the last decadehas transformed the office environment.Businesses have introduced multi-functioncomputers, new telecommunication networks and copyingdevices to facilitate operation and management of modern offices.As a result, business practices have changed from manualor mechanical operations to the use of sophisticated computer and telecommunication systemsand their associated software applications. These applicationareas include: * word processing; * graphics; * desktop publishing; * electronic time management; * spreadsheets; * electronic mail; * accounting packages; * teleconferencing; * electronic filing; * videotext;

  • Resilience, Vulnerability and Adaptive Capacity of an Inland Rural Town Prone to flooding: a Climate Change Adaptation Case Study of Charleville, Queensland, Australia
    Nat Hazards (2011) 59:699–723 DOI 10.1007/s11069-011-9791-y ORIGINAL PAPER Resilience, vulnerability and adaptive capacity of an inland rural town prone to flooding: a climate change adaptation case study of Charleville, Queensland, Australia Diane U. Keogh • Armando Apan • Shahbaz Mushtaq • David King • Melanie Thomas Received: 5 July 2010 / Accepted: 15 March 2011 / Published online: 29 March 2011 Ó Springer Science+Business Media B.V. 2011 Abstract Australia is currently experiencing climate change effects in the form of higher temperatures and more frequent extreme events, such as floods. Floods are its costliest form of natural disaster accounting for losses estimated at over $300 million per annum. This article presents an historical case study of climate adaptation of an Australian town that is subject to frequent flooding. Charleville is a small, inland rural town in Queensland situated on an extensive flood plain, with no significant elevated areas available for relocation. The study aimed to gain an understanding of the vulnerability, resilience and adaptive capacity of this community by studying the 2008 flood event. Structured ques- tionnaires were administered in personal interviews in February 2010 to householders and businesses affected by the 2008 flood, and to institutional personnel servicing the region (n = 91). Data were analysed using appropriate quantitative and qualitative techniques. Charleville was found to be staunchly resilient, with high levels of organisation and cooperation, and well-developed and functioning social and institutional networks. The community is committed to remaining in the town despite the prospect of continued future flooding. Its main vulnerabilities included low levels of insurance cover (32% residents, 43% businesses had cover) and limited monitoring data to warn of impending flooding.

  • 2021 Land Valuations Overview Murweh
    Land valuations overview: Murweh Shire Council On 31 March 2021, the Valuer-General released land valuations for 2,358 properties with a total value of $508,701,560 in the Murweh Shire Council area. The valuations reflect land values at 1 October 2020 and show that Murweh Shire has increased by 75 per cent overall since the last valuation in 2018. Rural land values have increased significantly due to the strength in beef commodity prices as well as a low interest rate environment. Due to the decline in western towns and the effects of a prolonged drought, residential values in Charleville have experienced moderate to significant reductions. Inspect the land valuation display listing View the valuation display listing for Murweh Shire Council online at www.qld.gov.au/landvaluation or visit the Department of Resources, Hood Street, Charleville.
