The Australian Centre for Student Equity and Success acknowledges Indigenous peoples across Australia as the Traditional Owners of the lands on which the nation’s campuses are situated. With a history spanning more than 60,000 years as the original educators, Indigenous peoples hold a unique place in our nation. We recognise the importance of their knowledge and culture, and reflect the principles of participation, equity, and cultural respect in our work. We pay our respects to Elders past, present, and future, and consider it an honour to learn from our Indigenous colleagues, partners, and friends.

Event information

EdTechPosium is an annual Canberra-based educational technology conference with a focus on higher education and VET.

The conference is organised by a volunteer committee with members from the University of Canberra, Canberra Institute of Technology, the Australian National University, Australian Catholic University, the University of New South Wales and the Australian Defence Force. This year will be the 10th ‘posium’ and will be hosted by Australian Catholic University at Watson in Canberra.

The theme for this year’s conference is “Design, Develop, Play!”. It encompasses our vision for diversity and innovation in the use of technology for teaching and learning. It is the recognition of the importance of pedagogy and evidence in the choice and implementation of tools and technologies, as well as the role ‘play’ or ‘playfulness’ has in higher education.

We invite academics, designers, researchers, and practitioners with an interest in creating, shaping or incubating innovative and playful learning designs, tools, technologies and experiences to join us in this growing conversation.
