The Year 10 curriculum provides a study of the history of the modern world and Australia from 1918 to the present, with an emphasis on Australia in its global context. The 20th century became a critical period in Australia’s social, political, economic, cultural, environmental, and political development. The transformation of the modern world during a time of political turmoil, global conflict and international cooperation provides a necessary context for understanding Australia’s development, its place within the Asia-Pacific region and its global standing, and the demands for rights and recognition by First Nations Australians.
In Year 10, students are expected to study at least two sub-strands: World War II and Building Modern Australia. The globalising world is a sub-strand that may be studied as an option.
Students will investigate the following topics:
Students provide evidence of their learning through five assessments.
