AC History Units. The Australian Curriculum: History introduces a discipline-based approach to teaching history in primary and secondary classrooms.

This marks a shift away from more integrated approaches associated with Studies of Society and Environment (SOSE).

Literacy is changing–not at its core necessarily, but certainly at its edges as it expands to include new kinds of “reading.” Digital media is quickly replacing traditional media forms as those most accessible to most 21st century learners.
