    This one will only be useful for Australian teachers (except in the astounding event of Aus'n history being taught outside the sunburnt country) and looks like it might be a little chest-thumpingly patriotic. That's not always a bad thing though is it and there are some primary sources you could pinch and then use for more subversive purposes if that's your thing.

    This quiz focusses quite a bit on Australian history (how parochial!) and requires some quite detailed factual knowledge, however might be useful as part of a whole class game show or something like that...

    Good example of using an LMS (Learning Management System [cool jargon to know!]) for a class. My school uses Moodle and BlackBoard is popular at Australian universities. I organise mine by lesson and direct the students to go through the materials before the lesson, usually podcasts, PowerPoints, links to a source site, etc, depending on what materials I'm using for the lesson. After the lesson I put the podcast of it up there for the students to use for revision, along with the notes they've taken during that lesson. Much more effective than a textbook, I reckon!

    I was looking for sources earlier this year for Native American history while I was teaching a unit on Australian indigenous history (I wanted to show the similarities and develop a fresh perspective in my students) and with both topics I struggled to find quality teaching materials, printed or digital. At least this can provide some background information and neat visuals for the students if you're doing a unit on indigenous peoples in the New World.

    Hi Mary, Thank you for this amazing share. Down here in Australia there has been a similar event regarding monuments in the news, just after the Charlottesville monument events unfolded. We can definately incorporate and contextualise this for Australia as a combined or global event. A link to an Australian news article that could also be utilised to expand young American minds in understanding that this is a global issue also. http://www.abc.net.au/news/2017-08-26/australia-day-argument-intensifies-as-vandals-hit-captain-cook/8845064 Thanks again Faye Goodwin pre service teacher

    Dear Faye, Thank you for your comment and the link you posted. It will be interesting to look at this as a global issue. Recently I also saw some articles about similar events in Canada. Hope you have a good school year! Mary

Cartoon PD in a package - 16 views

  • Exam markers have identified cartoon interpretation as an area of weakness in the teaching of History in Australian schools. Cartoon PD in a Package is a resource from the John Curtin Prime Ministerial Library, developed with the support of a grant from the Public Education Endowment Trust. The package is designed to develop confidence and proficiency in teachers and students using cartoon resources. The value of this resource lies in its self-contained nature which allows it to deliver quality professional development without a presenter and at a time that suits the individual teacher. Teachers will find this package invaluable.

    This is the education section of the National Archives of Australia. It contains digitised resources from the archives grouped into topics related to 20th century Australian history. Many of the resources have commentary.
