- Humanities in the new Australian Curriculum
October 22, 2011
17 November 2011, Law School, University of Melbourne
The humanities disciplines are foundational to the new Australian Curriculum. This Symposium will explore the future of humanities education in Australia, and the challenges and opportunities presented by the new curriculum for humanities research and teaching at all levels.
Questions to be explored include:
-
What experience of the humanities is envisaged for our future citizens?
-
What interest in the humanities will be stimulated among Australia’s young people? What skills will they bring to university, further training or the workforce from the disciplines, and the discipline, of the humanities?
-
Who are Australia’s future scholars, researchers and teachers in all the disciplines of the humanities, and what encouragement is being offered to them to pursue a widely based and rich encounter with human knowledge?
-
How has the Australian nation been formed through schooling and how does this compare internationally?
