For Teachers | Education Paralympics Australia

For Teachers | Education Paralympics Australia | Teaching during COVID-19 | Scoop.it
From education.paralympic.org.au - May 3, 2020 10:16 PM
A range of captivating lesson plans are ready for you to explore the history of the Paralympic movement in Australia and abroad, Paralympic values and a range of Para-sports. All lesson plans are linked to the Australian Curriculum and don’t require any specialist equipment, so they are easy to implement in the classroom (or at home). Our resources focusing on the Paralympics in Australia are aimed at primary school students but can be adapted to a range of learning contexts. The I’mPOSSIBLE resources include lesson plans, worksheets and PowerPoint presentations for both primary and secondary teachers. These lesson plans can be used individually or to form a unit of work.

Flexible learning

From www.slideshare.net - April 20, 2020 10:24 PM
FACULTY OF HUMANITIES Flexible Learning Getting started with Flexible Learning and Blackboard
Kim Flintoff's insight:
This was put together back in 2012 - assuming it was totally redundant by now, it was left to languish in a repository at Slideshare... but it might hold some interest: 

Despite the mention of humanities it reflects a wholistic approach to planning, creating, delivering and assessing in a flexible manner in any discipline.

It reflects its original context but carries all the thinking behind flexible learning engagement in broad terms.

Inanimate Alice - Inanimate Alice

Inanimate Alice - Inanimate Alice | Teaching during COVID-19 | Scoop.it
From inanimatealice.com - April 5, 2020 8:18 PM

Classrooms around the world are now using Inanimate Alice as an across-the-curriculum approach to teaching and learning.

Inanimate Alice tells the story of a girl growing up dreaming of becoming a game designer one day. Uniquely, it is a tale of progressive complexity, each episode reflecting Alice’s age and digital competency as she grows up. 


 First meet Alice age 8, drawing a stickman and taking photos to send to her Dad. Grow up beside her through school and college during which time she hones her artistic and technological skills, relentlessly pursuing her dream. 


 Classrooms around the world are now using Inanimate Alice as an across-the-curriculum approach to teaching and learning. This is a story for teachers and students who wish to explore the nature of ‘born digital’ narratives. Free from the constraints of print formats, the text becomes dynamic, driving the story forwards, and the ambient sounds complement the immersive nature of the story. 


 The format targets students 10-14 years of age: colourful magazine pages attract younger students, while the later episodes explore more complex themes. Resources and activities help teachers integrate Inanimate Alice into the curriculum. 


 This is a story of exploration. An adventure. Take a look at the timeline of Alice’s adventures and find the best place to start for you.

Kim Flintoff's insight:
Inanimate Alice will be well-known to many Australian educators - Education Services Australia was a longtime champion of this platform and there are many teaching resources available to support its use.  

Inanimate Alice is a member of the Learning Futures Network.
