About the Fellowship
The Sydney Grammar School in partnership with the State Library of NSW is pleased to announce the new Digital Learning Fellowship.
The Sydney Grammar School and State Library of New South Wales Fellowship was previously offered to primary and secondary teachers to develop curriculum focused learning resources based on the collections of the Library .
The Sydney Grammar School and State Library of New South Waless Fellowship has been reinvigorated as a Digital Learning Fellowship for web developers who are passionate about English and History. This opportunity is ideal for developers in the digital humanities particularly within the Gallery, Library, Museums and Archive (GLAM) sector. The award has been redesigned to support the creative and innovative use of the Library's Visionaries program with a specific emphasis on promoting collections and items that are relevant to a K-12 schools audience and curriculum. The Fellowship is generously supported by the Sydney Grammar School.
Further information can be found on the DX Lab website.
