Humanities (9)

Through the theme of CHANGE Students discover how both human ingenuity and natural forces have changed and shaped their world.  In Semester One, students compare and contrast the French, Russian and Chinese Revolutions, and study how countries develop and change and the reasons for differences. In Semester Two they study how change in the USA occurred peacefully, the management of freshwater resources. They look at how societies and environments have changed and make judgments on whether or not this change has had a positive or negative impact on them, their community and their world. Assessment is based on both formative and summative tasks, united in their scope of appeal to different learning styles and preferences.  Students also do self evaluation and peer evaluation exercises.
