WF1 BRACElet
A Multi Institutional Study of Program Reading and Writing Skills in Novice Programming Students

This full day workshop follows on from the inaugural BRACELet workshop held at AUT in December 2004. During this workshop an instrument (a set of multi choice and short answer questions) was established. Participants discussed the key ethical considerations and provided the participants with the tools they would need to proceed with the study at their own institutions.

WF2 SoDIS Symposium and Workshop

WF2a SoDIS Symposium
The SoDIS symposium will enable current and prospective participants in this CITRUS sponsored collaborative research programme to meet and share experiences, materials, practices and plans. Industry members, educators from polytechnic and university sectors, local and overseas, and students have all participated in previous symposia.

WF2b SoDIS Workshop
The SoDIS workshop is particularly intended for those unfamiliar with the SoDIS process, who may be interested in learning about it or using it in their teaching. Also, for those symposium attendees already involved in using SoDIS, the workshop will provide an opportunity to trial the latest version of the SoDIS Project Auditor CASE tool.

WHM1 Tips and Tricks when using a Managed Learning Environment (MLE)
This workshop will share strategies which minimise tutor workload to ensure the success of an online course. The workshop will invite participants to try out a range of strategies that will be useful for using a MLE:

WHM2 Introducing WLAN Standards and Technologies
Teaching network and LAN administration courses using WLAN technology shares many of the same concepts as cabled based LANs but it extends the concepts of planning the network infrastructure and the implementation of security in unique ways. .

WHM3 “DEMONSTRATING VS.NET 2003” – Console and New GUI controls
This workshop introduces VS.NET 2003. The session has two parts, each oriented towards the teaching of a paper from Dip Level 5:

Using VS.NET Console tool in PP490:
Using VS.NET in ID-500 to illustrate the principles of GUI design

WHM4 Fluency in IT New Zealand (FIT NZ)
A national project supported by the NACCQ executive that involves the ICT industry, tertiary institutions, secondary schools and Government

The aim of this workshop is twofold; to inform the NACCQ membership about this major project and to provide an opportunity for participants to contribute to the consultation process.

WHA5 Curriculum and Quality Workshop
The aims of the Curriculum and Quality Working Group are to:

Promote and support the development, delivery and quality of NACCQ ICT qualifications and ‘local’ qualifications, including degree and graduate diplomas
Provide a co-ordinated approach to supporting the development, maintenance and assessment of ICT unit standards and qualifications on the NQF

This workshop will provide you with an opportunity to participate in a variety of discussions that support the Working Group’s focus on achievement of these aims.

WHA6 “Work Anywhere” - Realising the dream with SOA.
“Work Anywhere” offers the promise of working where we want, with the device we want and with the applications we want. The participants will be introduced to the concept of a service oriented architecture and identify the key challenges faced by use of SOA. They will also will be introduced to the issues of developing software for smart devices and will develop a basic PDA application for the Pocket PC using Microsoft’s DotNet compact framework.

WHA7 Workshop Title: Exploring the Teaching/Postgraduate Study Nexus in Computing: A National Polytechnic Project
In this half-day workshop a national research project will be initiated to gain information on the numbers of computing academics who have upgraded or are upgrading their qualifications, and explore the impacts of the considerable number of staff at polytechnics who are teaching as well as upgrading their qualifications. This research project will result in valuable information for policy planning within the NACCQ community and perhaps within the secondary schools as they develop there own computing curriculum.

WHA8 Yipes, this semester you have to team teach on a subject your knowledge of which is dated: An innovative approach to upskilling quickly
There has been a sudden reduction in the number of students attending institutions across New Zealand and Australia . Lecturers have to be versatile and whilst they may have the ‘knowledge’ of course content some staff members may lack recent experience in the field. This workshop will invite participants to offer their strategies and to try out a range of the presenters strategies.
