  • share and develop pedagogical strategies to promote excellence in pre-service teacher Technologies education
  • share and develop resources that help teachers teach the Technologies Curriculum in Australian schools
  • identify research needs and collaborative research opportunities in the Technologies teacher education area
  • ensure that ATTEN becomes a sustainable organisation, providing a strong voice in the advocacy of Technologies teacher education.

All materials will be disseminated via the ATTEN Google Drive folder. A Gmail account has been setup for this purpose.
