Teaching during COVID-19
This topic is curated by members of the Learning Futures Network to help each other through the rapidly changing educational landscape that's evolving during the world's response to COVID-19.  Its here to help you identify some quality resources that have been looked over by other educators.  Please remember to comment and offer guidance where you can.  This is more about contribution and sharing than it is about simply taking.

These resources have been created for the online learning world. You may know some of the selected plays and some may be new. It’s always great to make discoveries. Whichever is the case, Australian Plays recommends that teachers access and read a script before selecting it for their students. Each script and the accompanying activities are designed as a mini unit of work or series of lessons for students to do solo, in pairs and in collaboration and take place over several days or more..

Kim Flintoff's insight:
Brought to our attention by Dr Megan Upton.   Engaging with Australian plays is engaging with the Australian voice.   The stories and perspectives identify elements of our identity and shared experience.

Kim Flintoff's insight:
I've known Justin Cash for many years and between the two of us we used to have the largest curated collections of theatre and drama resources in the world - I moved away from the drama classroom and eventually gave away most of my drama-specific activities - but Justin has been your rock!
Maddi McDonald's curator insight, May 7, 2020 12:09 AM
This blog comes across as a successful and approachable source when looking deeper into resources, ideas and pedagogy for the drama classroom. I love how it integrates the importance of real industry news and not only academic style definitions but also lesson plans, games and stagecraft ideas.
