Resources designed for the new senior Modern History syllabus (implemented in QLD in 2019). This lesson includes: 1 x list of source types for warm up evaluation activity (can be laminated with a magnet on the back for sorting activity) 1 x PowerPoint 1 x Source Booklet with sources about Hitler Youth 1 x Independent Work Booklet with various activities designed to help students practice the evaluation skill Context: My school runs this program in Alternative Sequence (yr 11 and 12s in together) due to the small size of the school. The lesson begins with some teaching that both grades can do together before the year 12s are assigned some independent work and the year 11s are given some more focused teaching. Then the year 11’s do independent work while the year 12s share their answers and receive feedback. The sequence of the lesson: The lesson begins with a warm up activity where students have to place types of sources on a grid in terms of how reliable and useful they typically are. Next students have to brainstorm some synonyms and antonyms for ‘reliable’ and ‘useful.’ Following this, year 12s are given a booklet which has evaluation activities (starting at simple activities and building up to those styled like the short response questions in the Term 4 exam). They begin completing these while the year 11’s get a more teacher centred lesson. In this portion of the lesson we begin with defining ‘evaluate’ before zooming in on the evaluation criteria we use in modern history – reliability and usefulness. There is information about what reliability is and that there are levels of reliability. There are tips for how to write a judgement of reliability and some things to look for when determining reliability. There is a list of reasons why a source may be deemed unreliable. There is an example reliability statement which has been colour coded to show how the writer has included various features of evidence in their evaluation. Following this, the gradual release method is used to engage with the first few sources in the booklet. (I explain the first activity, we engage with Source 1 and then complete the question together – with me modelling my thinking process via think alouds. Students then do Source 2 as a pair and Source 3 on their own). This is followed by explicit teaching on how to determine the usefulness of a source. There is also information about the importance of corroboration (including a video from the History Skills website). This is followed by some sentence starters which can be used when corroborating. This is followed by completing activities from the booklet (first as a we do, then students do one in a pair, then they do one on their own). Following this, the year 11’s continue doing the booklet independently while I go through the answers with the year 12s.

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 German Nationalism between 1914–1945 (World War I begins –World War II ends). This lesson includes: 1 x Worksheet – match the definitions 1 x PowerPoint 1 x Source Booklet – containing 8 sources (a mixture of types) for analysis 1 x Handout containing a graphic organiser for analysing sources 1 x Handout explaining CAMPORUM acronym with tips for what to look for when analysing sources The lesson begins with a matching the definitions warm up (historical concepts and other relevant historical terms). This is followed by a definition of ‘analyse’ and a 9 step process for analysing. A run down of the 7 features of evidence we look for when ‘analysing’ in history (based on those in the QLD syllabus). Students are then introduced to an acronym which will help them to remember what each of these are (CAMPORUM). Students are shown the A standard criteria for analysing and the are unpacked. The year 12 students then begin independently analysing sources in the source booklet and filling in the handout (CAMPORUM tables). The year 11’s then receive focused teaching about the difference between primary and secondary sources, things to keep in mind when discussing the source origins in a written analysis, how the origins of the source may impact its reliability and tips for evaluating the reliability of different source types. There is some information about historical context and why it is crucial to understand the creator’s motive when engaging with a source. This is followed by an explanation of what the sources will look like in the exam (i.e. a context statement, an excerpt from a source and an APA reference). Following this, the gradual release method is used to engage with the first few sources in the booklet. (I have done the first one on the slides to show how to complete the table, we do the second one together, they do the third one in pairs and they do the fourth one independently). The types of sources in the booklet: An extract from Mein Kampf, an extract from a textbook, an extract from the Alpha History website, an extract from The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum website, an infographic, a poem, an artwork and a history magazine. They were chosen to deliver content at the same time as teaching the analysis skill. Context: My school runs this program in Alternative Sequence (yr 11 and 12s in together) due to the small size of the school.

A PowerPoint used in a year 11 Modern History classroom focusing on the issues faced by women during the fourth wave of feminism. It begins by acknowledging some of the progress that has been made to the social, political, economic and cultural landscape for women. This is followed by an examination of some of the things that have gone unchanged including entrenched negative attitudes to women (examples are provided). Some issues faced by women are addressed including striking the balance between traditional mothering and home-maker roles and the demands of full-time work (which was addressed in journalist Virginia Haussegger’s pivotal opinion piece ‘‘The sins of our feminist mothers’’ (2002). After this an overview of a range of issues confronting women in contemporary society is provided. This includes viewing some infographics from the United Nations (2015) outlining some of the problems women in modern society face: violence, poverty and lack of representation in politics. This is followed by some information about discrimination that female politicians in Australia (Julia Gillard and Sarah Hanson-Young) have faced. There is also an issue of a lack of representation of women and their achievements in the media. This is followed by inforamtion about sexual harrasssment and the #metoo social media campaign / movement. This is followed by information about women having been excluded from ‘history’ or relegated to the sidelines (and the attempts to rectify this). The issues of representation of women on the internet (i.e. on sites like Wikipedia) and in films are briefly addressed. This is followed by information about the high rates of women being bullied online. The issue of Aboriginal women often feeling excluded from the mainstream feminist movement is addressed briefly. The final term to be explained is ‘double burden.’ This is followed by some checking for understanding questions which can be responded to verbally or in written form.

A PowerPoint used in a year 11 Modern History classroom focusing on the 3rd wave feminist movement (with a focus on the movement which existed in Australia although it does address the ideologies of the movement which began overseas). It begins with an outline of the learning intentions and success criteria for the lesson. There are some context setting notes for students to copy (defining third wave feminism etc.) This is followed by a brief viewing activity (‘A bite-sized guide to Third Wave Feminism.’) Some important key terms (intersectionality and marginalised groups) are defined. Following this reasons for the rise of the third wave of feminism in the 1990s are outlined. The unpopularity against feminism in this era is mentioned along with the reasons for this backlash. There is a quote from Anne Summers which referenced the roll back of programs which safeguarded women’s equality which started to occur in Australian politics in the 90s. The reasons why women turned their backs on feminism are listed (e.g. fearing appearing unfeminine / anti-men or ending up alone). Some key figures in this wave of feminism are introduced including Naomi Wolf (USA). Some types of feminism in this era are explained including Lipstick feminism and international feminism. The Toronto ‘Slut Walk’ is given as an example of a campaign that was used. Some advances made in Australia in the 1990s are listed including the first female premiers of Western Australia and Victoria. The lesson concludes with some questions to check for student understanding. Resources designed for the new senior Modern History syllabus (implemented in QLD in 2019).

A PowerPoint used in a year 11 Modern History classroom. It begins with a viewing activity ‘A bite sized guide to the history of modern Western feminism.’ Following this there are slides talking about how gender stereotypes began to shift due to the work of the Women’s Liberation Movement. I get students to copy the underlined text and call on various students to read aloud other portions. Students are introduced to ‘consciousness raising’ a method used by 2nd wave feminists. Following this there is a quote from Zelda D’Aprano (a feminist from Melbourne) about the inspiration for using consciousness raising and what types of things they discussed. An extract from the Rivka Pile papers (University of Melbourne) is also included to demonstrate the significance of this strategy. Following this students are introduced to some gender theory including that gender is a social construct and the term ‘gender role’ is defined. This is followed by an exploration of visual sources (pictures from a children’s book from 1970) which reinforced traditional gender role stereotypes. This is followed by a list of issues that were being addressed by feminists by the 1970s including domestic violence, abortion law reform and availiability of childcare services (including day care and preschool). The introduction of women into Australian politics is discussed with reference to The Women’s Electoral Lobby and the ‘femocrats’ appointed to public service during Gough Whitlam’s time as PM. This is followed by information about the significant achievements which took place in the 1980s. The remaining few slides are about viewpoints about 2nd wave feminism. The lesson ends with a paragraph writing task which can be completed for homework if time gets away from you.

Three resources: A Powerpoint which teaches students how to analyse a specific type of source - songs. These primary sources provide a good insight into the values, attitudes and beliefs of a time period. The period we focused on was the second wave of feminism. The lesson provided an intro to what popular culture is, some questions to ask when analysing a song as well as a framework to use for writing about the source (COMA). Following this, a Jigsaw strategy is used so students become an expert about one of the 5 songs before moving to another group to inform them about that song. This is followed by a paragraph writing activity. Also included in this PPT is essay writing tips which can be used in a subsequent lesson if the Jigsaw strategy takes longer (depends on the number of students you have). A Handout for the students to complete during the Jigsaw strategy. It contains graphic organisers to support their analysis of the feminist anthem that has been assigned to them. Some information about each of the songs which are used in the Jigsaw activity. You need a few printed copies of the info for each song to be distributed to the students who are becoming an expert on that specific song.

A PowerPoint which can run for a few lessons which is about the Second Wave of Feminism. It begins with an explanation of feminist theory taken from a Sociology textbook. This is followed by information about the origins of the feminist movement in the 1960s (USA). The perspectives of Marxist feminists vs Radical feminists are explored. Some context of what was happening in the 1960s was provided (e.g. Civil Rights movement, Peace movement, Music revolution, Sexual revolution etc.) A source of feminist ideologies (Betty Friedan’s ‘The feminine mystique’) and its impact on women’s thinking is explored. This is followed by information about how Australian women’s movements were influenced and shaped by international developments. The goals of these women were explored. The methods used by the women’s liberation movement in the 60s and 70s are listed. Australia’s Bar Room Suffragettes (from Brisbane) are provided as an example. This is followed by an explanation of women’s quest for equal pay. The Women’s Action Committee (WAC) - a group of feminists from Melbourne - are introduced along with their specific goals. Information about a key goal (abortion law reform) is provided. This is followed by information about some key feminists: Germaine Greer, Anne Summers & Zelda D’Aprano. The slideshow concludes with things that improved the lives of women during this era (birth control - the contraceptive pill, equal pay for ‘work of equal value,’ more accessible childcare arrangements, shifting expectations of parenting so that fathers took on more responsibility in child rearing, more representation of women in politics & other legal achievements.)

A lesson which begins focusing on some of the key skills students need when engaging with sources in Modern History. It focuses on advertisements from the past which reinforced traditional gender role stereotypes and those which referenced the feminist movement in an attempt to sell more products. It begins by unpacking the A standard criteria for analysing and evaluating so that the students are aware of what they are expected to produce if they are aiming for top marks. It includes a list of the features of evidence that students should look for when examining sources. It introduces the C.O.M.A acronym which can be useful for engaging with visual sources in particular. Then the concept of gendered marketing is introduced with a range of advertisements provided which can be used for discussion or for practicing written analysis. The lesson includes a contrasting advertisement campaign to the many sexist adverts (Virginia Slims cigarettes). The ads for Virginia Slims cigarettes used the slogan “You’ve come a long way baby.”The purely female targeted tobacco brand used a feminist theme for they advertising campaign for over 20 years. This is followed by an example paragraph that showcases how this advertisement could be featured in an essay. There are prompting questions to guide students to unpack this example and determine its strengths and weaknesses.

Two resources: A worksheet for students to complete while watching the 2020 film ‘Misbehaviour’ which is about events which took place in the UK during the second wave of feminism (protests against the 1970 Miss World competition).Claiming that beauty competitions demeaned women, the newly-formed Women’s Liberation Movement achieved overnight fame by invading the stage and disrupting the live broadcast of the competition. There are 9 questions and 2 post viewing questions. Teaching tip: I utilise the broadcast strategy approach (Barry & King, 1998) previewing the questions prior to playing the film so that students know what to listen out for. A PowerPoint to use after viewing the film to unpack the key ideas. It includes a synopsis of the film and goes through the answers to the worksheet (also providing information from press around the movie and about the women who inspired it).

A lesson (PPT) designed for use early in the unit which establishes context for how Australian women were treated during WW1-WW2. This helps to establish the inequalities that women were beginning to campaign against which leads into a depth study of the Second Wave of Feminism. By the end of this lesson, students should be able to answer the following questions: 1.What viewpoints did Australian women have about World War One? 2.How did gender role expectations impact the lived experiences of women during this era? What challenges did Australian women face during The Great Depression? 4.How did the role of women on the Australian home front change during World War Two? It begins by showcasing taken-for-granted values and assumptions during this era. It then looks at the work performed by women on the homefront during WW1. There are some clips from the ABC TV series ‘ANZAC Girls’ showing the experiences of nurses stationed overseas during the war. This is followed by information about an organisation which actively discouraged women from taking on more than a supportive role (The Australian Women’s National League). Subsequently, the goals and motives of The Women’s Political Association are explored as they were one of the more ‘radical’ groups at the time. 2 sources discussing the significance of WW1 on beliefs about the roles of women in society are provided for discussion. The second portion of the lesson explores the impact of the Great Depression and utilises clips from ABC TV series ‘Further Back in Time for Dinner’ (https://iview.abc.net.au/video/CK2033H004S00) to allow students to empathise with the experience of families during this decade. The final third of this lesson is looking at the experiences of women during WW2 and the opportunities for war-related employment which emerged. Sources including propaganda posters promoting working for the Australian women’s land army, a Land Army volunteer’s personal recollections of her service and a table showing the pay disparity between men and women in between 1939-45 are included on the slides. Issues around having access to childcare, equitable pay and sexual freedoms are introduced. Resources designed for the new senior Modern History syllabus (implemented in QLD in 2019).

A lesson (23 slide PPT) designed for use early in the unit which introduces students to key terms, ideas and concepts. The lesson begins with some terms to add to their glossary (patriarchy & reproductive rights). It is followed by a 13minute ClickView viewing activity (Feminism: Whatever Happened to Women’s Lib?) which is good for prompting discussions. Following this there are notes for students to take (underlined) as well as supporting materials from reliable sources. Information covered includes: ‘The first forms of feminism in Australia,’ ‘Early feminist organisations,’ ‘Important dates,’ and ‘The differences between Australian / British / American feminists in that era.’ This is followed by an exploration of what ‘Women’s rights’ were at the time (both in the family unit and at work) and what advancements the feminists wanted. Following this the achievements of Australia’s ‘first wave’ feminists are summarised including the right to vote (both state and national). This is followed by 7 checking for understanding questions. Afterwards students can create multiple choice questions for a class Kahoot which will be used for revision in later lessons.

A PowerPoint designed to teach the students how to write a critical summary of evidence for their assessment. It begins by explaining what it is and what the term justify means. There is an overview of the required elements and three potential structures from the History Skills website that students can choose from. There is a video (online tutorial) from YouTube about how to write a critical summary. I have some tips that students should keep in mind when writing their critical summary. Finally, the QCAA example is included along with the marking notes showing which criterion are being addressed. Afterwards, students have time to write their own.

A lesson designed to help students reflect on their successes / struggles when writing their source analysis & evaluation dot points within their assessment. There are some reflection questions. This is followed by an example source analysis completed by a past student (a soviet postcard - 1918). Through looking at the example analysis of a visual primary source and its strengths and weaknesses – students can see if they have any of these elements missing from their own analysis. This is followed by the same student’s analysis of a written secondary source.

The PowerPoint begins with a reflection about their rationale and another example for them to look at. This is followed by a reminder of upcoming assessment checkpoints (mini deadlines). Afterwards two prior knowledge checking questions are posed: are all historical sources equally trustworthy? How might the reliability of a historical document be affected by the circumstances under which it was created. This is followed by some writing tips for when writing about sources e.g. better words to use as an alternative for states. This is followed by an explanation of how to complete the source analysis tables for their assessment. It begins with an explanation of the analysing and evaluating criteria. There is a video demonstrating how to do this using the Myall Creek Massacre (Australian Frontier Wars). I provide a suggested word count for students based on the number of sources they have chosen. There is also a website with useful tips about refining your writing to remove unnecessary words. The PowerPoint includes tips for analysing and evaluating sources. This is followed by a breakdown of he criteria for analysing and what each descriptor is about. There are examples of each level of response (for a different topic). Some sentence starters are provided for the students to use and they have time to begin writing this section of their assessment.
