Title Students must be able to engage in critical analysis of sources of information Degree of recognition National Media name/outlet MCERA - Media Centre for Education Research Australia Media type Web Country/Territory Australia Date 22/10/21 Description "Minister Tudge accused the Draft Australian Curriculum (History), especially in regards to the Years 7-10 History and Civics curriculum, as providing students with a ‘miserable, negative view’ of Australian History since 1788.
This is a confounding view of a curriculum from which students learn about ... critical analysis of sources of information. Fortunately, the Draft Australian Curriculum (History, 7-10 in particular) requires students learn about ‘different historical interpretations and contested debates’. It seems that the Draft History Australian Curriculum is well on the way to developing critical thinking students with the capacity to enter into active citizenship."Producer/Author MCERA Persons Kim Wilson
