It examines major events, individuals and circumstances that have shaped modern Australia, including cultural achievements, scientific discoveries, economic booms and depressions, arbitration, the trade union movement, race relations, immigration, political scandals and wars - real or imagined. Students will learn how history texts of the past are challenged by fresh perspectives on what is significant and relevant in Australia's history, and they will be encouraged to reflect on the relationship between changing social values and ways in which we understand the past. |
