19. Impossible to Possible
• Not being able to work
together TO working in teams
• Not being able to complete a
written story TO a fully
scripted short film
• Not having the means to
share learning TO sharing at
Federation Square!
• Not thinking parents will
accept the film making TO “I
never thought my child could
do such a thing!”
26. Don’t buy any more stuff (technology)
until we get the teaching and learning
right.
It can create problems if teachers do not
have the teaching and learning right!
