The PPT begins with a warm up to help students to retrieve prior knowledge. This is followed by Carlton university’s tips for analysing and evaluating primary sources. Students are then given a worksheet which contains the O-P-V-M chart with some elements removed which students will fill in as the lesson takes place. The PPT goes through each source type beginning with letters giving information about things to keep in mind regarding origin, purpose, value and limitations. There is a letter from Nelson to Winnie which we read and discussed the language choices. There was also one from Winnie to Nelson (1970). Following this information about Winnie Mandela from the South African History website was provided. The next source type was photographs. I utilised a range of photographs about Winnie Mandela. Following this, political cartoons. This was followed by an acronym called P.I.C.T.U.R.E which is handy for unpacking visual sources. There is information about techniques which cartoonists often use to convey meaning (including allusion, symbolism, irony). Then some cartoons from Zapiro and Len Sak were included for students to get an idea of different styles. The next source type was news media which covers newspapers, tv reports, radio reports and eye witness accounts. Following this, official government documents and other government records e.g. speeches and memorandas. Resources designed for the new senior Modern History syllabus (implemented in QLD in 2019). The syllabus objectives would also be useful more broadly for English students in other states and countries with an interest in the Anti-Apartheid movement in South Africa (1948-1994).

This PPT was used to introduce an alternative sequence class (11 and 12 students in the same class) to the external assessment. It includes information from QCAA’s subject reports which explains the assessment conditions. This is followed by a series of slides explaining each criterion and looking at example questions. For some of the question types there are recommended response structures and sample answers. Resources designed for the new senior Modern History syllabus (implemented in QLD in 2019).

A word document (Cornell Notes template) which I explain to students before the lesson. I then deliver the lesson in a lecture style format where students choose what to write down. A PPT which I use for my lecture-style lesson. It introduces students to the Dutch East India Company and their influence in Africa. Terms like Boer and Afrikaners are introduced. Information about the conflict between the British colonisers and the Boers is provided. This is followed by information about how the Boers attained self government. The use of language as propaganda is explored e.g. terms like ‘kaffir.’ The PPT ends with some checking for understanding questions.

A PPT which explains the lead up to the Sharpeville Massacre including the formation of the PAC. There are terms for the students to add to their glossary including separate development and bantustans. There are images from the massacre, a brief YouTube Video and information from written sources including the Hodder textbook, various newspaper articles. Students read these sources and have a table that they must complete where they list the source and describe the perspective evident in the source.

A PPT used to combine information from a range of sources about the aftermath and the formation of Umkhonto weSizwe. Information about international reaction to the images of the massacre is provided. The subsequent riots are explained. The government’s reactions including declaring a state of emergency and banning the ANC & PACs are explained. The reasons why ANC decided to adopt armed struggle as a strategy are explored using a range of source. After reading through and discussing these sources, there is an EA style synthesis activity for the students to complete.

A worksheet to go along with viewing the SBS Viceland tv series ‘Rise Up’ which had an episode about the anti-apartheid movement. The episode is also available on ClickView. The questions have been written to go in the order that the information is provided in the episode. A scanned copy of my handwritten answers is provided.
