I am starting a new job in the New Year as an Ultranet Coach in the BSW region. I can't wait to share with you my learning and ideas as this project progresses, so stay tuned.
What is Ultranet you ask?
According to the DEECD http://www.education.vic.gov.au/management/ultranet/about.htm
The Ultranet will provide an online space to manage the running of schools. It will also allow teachers, parents and students to access the information they need via the Internet.
The Ultranet will establish a schools environment for the future that improves the educational outcomes of all Victorians.
Objectives of the Ultranet:
- improve responsiveness to individual learning needs
- provide better information to parents, the school system and Government
- improve efficiency of the learning environment and school administration
- adopt an enterprise approach to intranet development
- exploit previous ICT investments
Key benefits of the Ultranet to the community:
- establish a school environment for the future
- improve the educational outcomes of Victorians
- reduce the administrative burden on teachers and school leaders
- reduce the future cost of education
- improve educational opportunities for regional, rural and remote Victorians
