Illustrations of practice

ACARA has developed a set of videos and associated resources known as illustrations of practice, to demonstrate effective pedagogy and practice in diverse contexts. These have been filmed across a range of schools, year levels and teaching and learning environments. They demonstrate how the three dimensions of the Australian Curriculum, learning areas, general capabilities and cross-curriculum priorities, can be integrated into learning plans. Each illustration of practice includes a video, school contextual information and resources.

When viewing the illustrations of practice, teachers are encouraged to identify the pedagogical practices of the teachers involved that could apply to their own contexts. Teachers can work individually, participate in small groups or as a whole staff, to discuss:

  • strategies to cater for student diversity in the classroom
  • different ways for students to access and engage with the curriculum
  • relevant examples of authentic learning experiences.
