Australian Curriculum

History- Year 10

Year Level Description

The Year 10 curriculum provides a study of the history of the modern world and Australia from 1918 to the present, with an emphasis on Australia in its global context. The twentieth century became a critical period in Australia’s social, cultural, economic and political development. The transformation of the modern world during a time of political turmoil, global conflict and international cooperation provides a necessary context for understanding Australia’s development, its place within the Asia-Pacific region, and its global standing.

The content provides opportunities to develop historical understanding through key concepts, including evidence, continuity and change, cause and effect, perspectives, empathy, significance and contestability. These concepts may be investigated within a particular historical context to facilitate an understanding of the past and to provide a focus for historical inquiries.

The history content at this year level involves two strands: Historical Knowledge and Understanding and Historical Skills. These strands are interrelated and should be taught in an integrated way, and in ways that are appropriate to specific local contexts. The order and detail in which they are taught are programming decisions.

A framework for developing students’ historical knowledge, understanding and skills is provided by inquiry questions through the use and interpretation of sources. The key/big inquiry questions at this year level are: what were the global influences and how did they impact on Australian culture and society after 1945? How do social, economic, cultural and politics influence present day Australia? How does culture shape our view of the world? How does culture provide us with ways of seeing and also blind us to other perspectives?

Historical Knowledge and Understanding

Overview The following content is taught as part of an overview for the historical period. It is not intended to be taught in depth. An overview will constitute approximately 10% of the total teaching time for the year. Overview content identifies important features of the period (1918 to the present) as part of an expansive chronology that helps students understand broad patterns of historical change. As such, the overview provides the broader context for the teaching of depth study content and can be built into various parts of a teaching and learning program. This means that overview content can be used to give students an introduction to the historical period; to make the links to and between the depth studies, and to consolidate understanding through a review of the period. Overview content for the Modern World and Australia includes the following:

Historical Skills

Analysis and use of sources

• Evaluate the reliability and usefulness of primary and secondary sources (ACHHS189)

• Process and synthesise information from a range of sources for use as evidence in an historical argument (ACHHS188)

Chronology, terms and concepts

• Use chronological sequencing to demonstrate the relationship between events and developments in different periods and places (ACHHS182)

• Use historical terms and concepts (ACHHS183)

Explanation and communication

• Develop texts, particularly descriptions and discussions that use evidence from a range of sources that are referenced (ACHHS192)

• the nature of the Cold War and Australia’s involvement in Cold War and post-Cold War conflicts (Korea, Vietnam, The Gulf Wars, Afghanistan), including the rising influence of Asian nations since the end of the Cold War (ACOKFH023)

Depth Studies

There are three depth studies for this historical period. For each depth study, there are up to three electives that focus on a particular society, event, movement or development. It is expected that ONE elective will be studied in detail. A depth study will constitute approximately 30% of the total teaching time for the year. The content in each depth study elective is designed to allow detailed study of specific aspects of this historical period. As part of a teaching and learning program, depth study content can be integrated with overview content and/or integrated with other depth study electives.

The Globalising World

Students investigate one major global influence that has shaped Australian society in

depth, including the development of the global influence during the twentieth century.

Students study ONE of these electives: Popular culture or The environment

movement or Migration experiences. Popular culture (1945 – present)

• Australia’s contribution to international popular culture (music, film, television, sport). (ACDSEH123)

• Continuity and change in beliefs and values that have influenced the Australian way of life (ACDSEH149)

• Developments in popular culture in post-war Australia and their impact on society, including the introduction of television and rock ’n’ roll (ACDSEH121)

• The changing nature of the music, film and television industry in Australia during the post-war period, including the influence of overseas developments (such as Hollywood, Bollywood and the animation film industry in China and Japan) (ACDSEH122)

• The nature of popular culture in Australia at the end of World War II, including music, film and sport (ACDSEH027)

• Select and use a range of communication forms (oral, graphic, written) and digital technologies (ACHHS193)

Historical questions and research

• Evaluate and enhance these questions (ACHHS185)

• Identify and locate relevant sources, using ICT and other methods (ACHHS186)

• Identify and select different kinds of questions about the past to inform historical inquiry (ACHHS184)

Perspectives and interpretations

• Identify and analyse the perspectives of people from the past (ACHHS190)

Year 10 achievement standard

By the end of Year 10, students refer to key events, the actions of individuals and groups, and beliefs and values to explain patterns of change and continuity over time. They analyse the causes and effects of events and developments and explain their relative importance. They explain the context for people’s actions in the past. Students explain the significance of events and developments from a range of perspectives. They explain different interpretations of the past and recognise the evidence used to support these interpretations.

Students sequence events and developments within a chronological framework, and identify relationships between events across different places and periods of time. When researching, students develop, evaluate and modify questions to frame an historical inquiry. They process, analyse and synthesise information from a range of primary and secondary sources and use it as evidence to answer inquiry questions. Students analyse sources to identify motivations, values and attitudes. When evaluating these sources, they analyse and draw conclusions about their usefulness, taking into account their origin, purpose, and context. They develop and justify their own interpretations about the past. Students develop texts, particularly explanations and discussions, incorporating historical argument. GeSTE

In developing these texts and organising and presenting their arguments, they use historical terms and concepts, evidence identified in sources, and they reference these sources.

Cross-curriculum priorities Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander histories and cultures Students will develop a knowledge, deep understanding and respect for Aboriginal peoples' and Torres Strait Islander peoples'

history and culture and build an awareness that their histories are part of a shared history belonging to all Australians.

The embedding of Aboriginal peoples' and Torres Strait Islander peoples' histories and cultures into the curriculum can be a

challenging task. For further information including pedagogical approaches refer to C2C: Aboriginal peoples & Torres Strait Islander peoples Cross Curriculum Priority support.

Asia and Australia's engagement with Asia Students will:

• develop an understanding of the diverse histories of Asia and build an appreciation of Asia's importance and its historical

contribution to Australia and the world • develop an appreciation of the history of Australia-Asia engagement and how this influences contemporary relationships.

Relevant prior curriculum Students require the following prior knowledge, understandings and skills from their study of Rights and freedoms (1945-present):

• an understanding of the changes in the rights and status of Aboriginal peoples and Torres Strait Islander peoples in the 20th century

• an understanding of evidence, continuity and change, cause and effect, perspectives and significance • the historical skills of analysing, interpreting, and evaluating sources and developing texts incorporating historical

argument.

Curriculum working towards The teaching and learning in this unit works towards building the following knowledge, understandings and skills in the next unit of

Year 11 Modern History: Movements for change in the 20th century: • an understanding of the key features and significance of 20th century movements for change • an understanding of evidence, continuity and change, cause and effect, perspectives and significance • the application of historical skills as part of an inquiry.

including ESL, gifted and talented, and students requiring additional support.

Start where students are at and differentiate teaching and learning to support the learning needs of all students. Plan and

What do my students already know? What do my students need to learn?

How do I teach it?

Why is important for student’s to know about this?

Feedback is information and advice provided by a teacher, peer, parent or self about aspects of someone's performance. The aim of feedback is to improve learning and is used to plan what to teach next and how to teach it.

Teachers and students use feedback to close the gap between where students are and where they aim to be. Teachers use self-feedback to guide and improve their teaching practice.

Document how you will cater for individual learning needs.

The learning experiences within this unit can be differentiated by increasing: • the frequency of exposure for some students • the intensity of teaching by adjusting the group size • the duration needed to complete tasks and assessment.

For guided and/or independent practice tasks: • student groupings will offer tasks with a range of complexities to cater for individual learning needs • rotational groupings allow for more or less scaffolding of student learning.

Feedback to students Establish active feedback partnerships between students, teachers and parents to find out:

• what each student already knows and can do • how each student is going • where each student needs to go next.

Ensure feedback is timely, ongoing, instructive and purposeful.

Feedback may relate to misunderstandings and common alternative conceptions. In this unit this may include: • Students may think that primary sources are always better than secondary sources. Explain to students that this is not the

case and that secondary sources often have been developed based on a thorough examination of primary sources. This provides a more comprehensive picture than some primary sources are able to do. Additionally, secondary sources have the advantage of being more distant from the event or period, thus allowing for a different perspective and the benefits of hindsight.

• Students may have opinions about recent popular culture and dismiss it as continuity rather than an evolving mode that

challenged more traditional beliefs and values. • Students may dismiss popular culture as ephemeral.

Use feedback to inform future teaching and learning.

Reflection on the unit plan Identify what worked well during and at the end of the unit for future planning. Reflection may include:

• activities that worked well and why

Assessment

What do my students understand and can do? How well do they know and do it?

What evidence do we gather?

Assessment is the purposeful, systematic and ongoing collection of information as evidence for use in making judgments about student learning.

Principals, teachers and students use assessment information to support improving student learning. Feedback from evaluation of assessment data helps to determine strengths and weaknesses in students' understanding.

Monitoring student learning Student learning should be monitored throughout the teaching and learning process to determine student progress and learning

needs.

Each lesson provides opportunities to gather evidence about how students are progressing and what they need to learn next.

Specific monitoring opportunities in this unit may include: Observation Collect information about students' ability to:

• use historical terms and concepts correctly • sequence historical events, developments and periods. • relate events and developments in different times and places • research and develop questions.

Consultation Consult with students about their ability to:

• pose/develop questions, identify and locate relevant sources in independent research tasks • organise and record research notes/information from sources • draft and edit written work • use historical evidence effectively in responses • work with statistics, maps and other graphical interfaces in an historical way • use ICT tools for investigation, organisation, communication and creating.

Samples of student work Check student understanding via:

• quizzes and diagnostic testing • questions that elicit a range of responses from comprehension to evaluation Essential Questions • peer reviews • collection of student work and the provision of detailed written feedback relating to structure, style, language, and

Appropriate use of historical terms and concepts.

Assessing student learning Assessment task - Research: Popular culture

Students conduct an historical inquiry into the causes and effects, and developments as well as the relative importance of an Australian contribution to popular culture after 1945. They identify the relationship between events and the actions of individuals

and groups contributing to popular culture after 1945.

This assessment provides opportunities to gather evidence of student learning in: Historical Knowledge and Understanding

• Developments in popular culture in post-war Australia and their impact on society, including the introduction of television

and rock 'n' roll (ACDSEH121) • Australia's contributions to international popular culture (music, film, television, sport) (ACDSEH123)

Historical Skills Chronology, terms and concepts

• Use chronological sequencing to demonstrate the relationship between events and developments in different periods and

places (ACHHS182) • Use historical terms and concepts (ACHHS183)

Historical questions and research • Identify and select different kinds of questions about the past to inform historical inquiry (ACHHS184) • Evaluate and enhance these questions (ACHHS185) Essential Questions • Identify and locate relevant sources, using ICT and other methods (ACHHS186) GeSTE

Analysis and use of sources • Process and synthesise information from a range of primary and secondary sources for use as evidence in an historical

argument (ACHHS188) GeSTE

Sequencing teaching and learning

What do my students already know and can do? What do my students need to learn? How do I teach it? The relationship between what is taught and how it is taught is critical in maximising student learning. Start with what your students already know and set goals for the next steps for learning. Decide how to provide multiple opportunities for all students to explore and consolidate ideas, skills and concepts by considering how students learn best and by using a variety of teaching strategies.

Teaching strategies and learning experiences A suggested learning sequence is outlined below.

Overview • The changing world

Nature of popular culture • Understanding popular culture • Changing technologies and the impact on popular culture

Influences • Overseas influences on Australian popular culture

Australia's contributions • Australian popular culture on the world stage

Assessment • Introduction and posing questions • Historical inquiry process • Comparing, selecting and sequencing information • Reviewing and creating • Review, reinforce and extend learning

Making judgments

How do I know how well my students have learned?

Teachers and students use standards to judge the quality of learning based on the available evidence. The process of judging and evaluating the quality of performance and depth of learning is important to promoting learning.

Teachers identify the task-specific assessable elements to make judgments against specified standards on evidence.

Achievement standard In this unit, assessment of student learning aligns to the following components of the Achievement standard.

By the end of Year 10, students refer to key events, the actions of individuals and groups, and beliefs and values to explain patterns of change and continuity over time. They analyse the causes and effects of events and developments and explain their relative importance. They explain the context for people's actions in the past. Students explain the significance of events and developments from a range of perspectives. They explain different interpretations of the past and recognise the evidence used to support these interpretations.

Students sequence events and developments within a chronological framework, and identify relationships between events across different places and periods of time. When researching, students develop, evaluate and modify questions to frame an historical inquiry. They process, analyse and synthesise information from a range of primary and secondary sources and use it as evidence to answer inquiry questions. Students analyse sources to identify motivations, values and attitudes. When evaluating these sources, they analyse and draw conclusions about their usefulness, taking into account their origin, purpose, and context. They develop and justify their own interpretations about the past. Students develop texts, particularly explanations and discussions, incorporating historical argument. In developing these texts and organising and presenting their arguments, they use historical terms and concepts, evidence identified in sources, and they reference these sources.
