MAJOR RESOURCE FOR AUSTRALIAN
CURRICULUM LAUNCHED
 

achistnav

The History Teachers' Association of Australia (HTAA)
has just launched a unique website: AC History Units
www.achistoryunits.edu.au

Developed by classroom teachers from around Australia,
it is designed to support the implementation of the
Australian Curriculum: History in primary and secondary
years.

The site presents eight units. The first, Teaching History,
is a foundation unit, providing a brief introduction to the
discipline of history and designed to 'unpack' the skills,
concepts and historical understandings of the Australian
curriculum. The remaining seven units focus on specific
topics relevant to particular year levels and provide
sample learning sequences, a wide range of resources
and assessment ideas.

A major goal has been to provide the conceptual background
(in Unit 1) and concrete examples (in Units 2-8) to assist
teachers in designing their own programs and learning
sequences for other topics and year levels. It is expected
that this resource will be welcomed by teachers at all levels
and teacher educators.
