Building the future

Building the future is a selection of interviews with young Aboriginal people in interesting careers and training. They tell their stories to inspire other Aboriginal students to complete HSC. Activities encourage reflection on their experiences and help students to set their own education and career goals.

Road to Reconciliation

Road to Reconciliation investigates some of the significant milestones along the path towards a reconciled Australia. It begins with a consideration of Mabo, native title and Wik, and what these have meant for the advancement of Aboriginal land rights. Worksheets guide the evaluation of websites. A web quest is used to examine the situation of indigenous populations in other countries.

Indigenous voices

Indigenous voices concentrates on developing knowledge and understanding about the historical, social and political issues of Indigenous cultures in Australia and Pacific island nations. It consists of three self-contained parts that include interactive learning activities based on text, audio and animations. Students respond to the texts, including rap songs from Indigenous communities, and compose their own texts.
