@ZacharyMcGrego2 Actions to improve sustainability are individual and collective endeavours shared across local and global communities.

@EmilyCrowe1993 @YouTube @Take3fortheSea do great work with local schools! Many KLAs can be incorporated to teach valuable sustainability values. #UoNTeach

@EmilyCrowe1993 Awesome! Great idea for learning across the curriculum.

[Niall @niallprentice89]

@EmilyCrowe1993 A great initiative that would develop students’ perspective.

[Niall @niallprentice89]

A useful resource teachers can use to teach about the complexities of culture, relationships to identities, perspectives and intercultural understanding-a key capability in the NSW syllabus which promotes an inclusive society (GEPNSW, 2014) https://t.co/gRSapyGFlk #UoNTeach

[Niall @niallprentice89]

Teachers understand the complexities of culture, its relationship with individual identities, views and perspectives for an unclusive society #UoNTeach

[Niall @niallprentice89]

By understanding different perspectives and mobilising change students can be active citizens. Active citizens embrace change in order to help create a better world (Reynolds, 2014).

@eleanorcampey It is important to educate students about such important global issues! Education has a deep influence on the values of individuals. During their time at school, young citizens form habits of mind, beliefs and principles that will stay with them throughout their lives.

[Niall @niallprentice89]

This article highlights that effective citizenship teaching includes terms such as democracy, diversity and participation. Integrating curriculum and social life makes learning relevant to your students' lives, while giving them a voice https://t.co/KgWTaQUKdC #UoNTeach

@EmilyCrowe1993 A fantastic initiative by @LifeEdAus and @YatesGardening to encourage and support young people to get out into the garden to grow and learn healthy habits.

[Niall @niallprentice89]

@EmilyCrowe1993 An education that encourages valuing human rights and diversity provides learning experiences so that students see the world from many different perspectives.

[Niall @niallprentice89]

An interesting read about making accessible and understandable human rights education part of existing lessons and topics covered in UK schools. Similarly, should there be discussions about making human rights education mandatory throughout the Australian curriculum? #UoNTeach https://t.co/WwGidAVfCo

Why Aren’t Human Rights Part Of The Essential Curriculum At Primary School? https://t.co/hF3lC24wJX via @jem_collins

@Coryy_dee @AsiaSocietyEDU @OECD Intercultural understanding stimulates students’ interest in the lives of others #UoNTeach

[Niall @niallprentice89]

Be the change you want to see in the world! “If we can make global education part of every student’s experience with the content, then we can really start shifting things and help all students begin developing as global citizens at an early age.” (@AsiaSocietyEDU/@OECD , 2018)

[Niall @niallprentice89]

@EmilyCrowe1993 Intercultural understanding involves students viewing and valuing their own cultural perspectives and practices and those of others through with contexts across the curriculum.

[Niall @niallprentice89]

The diversity of students & the community is an often-underutilised resource. A variety of languages, cultural assets& a range of international experiences can enrich classroom discussions & offer different perspectives on issues, if tapped into (Asia Society/OECD, 2018)#UoNTeach

@EmilyCrowe1993 @SchleicherOECD Agreed - Strong Performers and Successful Reformers in Education

[Niall @niallprentice89]

This is a fantastic resource by @SchleicherOECD to improve learning outcomes for students. He outlines effective education by using data, observations and remarkable wisdom to identify needs of diverse societies and different contexts(OECD, 2018b)https://t.co/JBQWeuEymc #UoNTeach

[Niall @niallprentice89]

@EmilyCrowe1993 I endorse that the Australian Curriculum recognises the need to provide every opportunity possible to ‘close the gap’

[Niall @niallprentice89]

To achieve Learning across the curriculum meaningful content should be integrated(GEPNSW, 2014) I had to ensure my community-based project was relevant for the school context. Aboriginal &Torres Strait Islander Histories &cultures can be taught across ALL learning areas #UoNTeach https://t.co/8nU3x35fPL

[ACARA @ACARAeduau]

Did you know Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander histories and cultures is an #AusCurric cross-curriculum priority? Our Curriculum Specialist Caty Morris recently wrote a blog article about why it’s important. Read it here: https://t.co/yijsFIaEoo #NRW2018

[Niall @niallprentice89]

@tierney_grice It has provided me with a stronger understanding of racism and other forms of exclusion from a child’s perspective, which will undoubtedly help me to more confidently identify and address racism in the classroom or school #UoNTeach

[Niall @niallprentice89]

@Coryy_dee @amnesty @amnestyOz The Australian Curriculum provides many opportunities for students to learn about human rights in a range of contexts, at all year levels, across all key learning areas and through the general capabilities and cross curriculum priorities.

[Niall @niallprentice89]

Do you want to empower students & promote active participation of school community members? Do you think human rights values & principles should be integrated into all areas of school life? If yes, look at this great resource https://t.co/WU288n2gwl #UoNTeach @amnesty @amnestyOz

[Niall @niallprentice89]

@Coryy_dee In a collaborative setting, students are actively involved in the learning process and more likely to become interested in learning and participating in school and the community.

[Niall @niallprentice89]

Partnerships with local councils, businesses & community groups can create lifelong dispositions & workplace competences for students. Collaborative action with the local & broader community can achieve many global education initiatives in the curriculum (GEPNSW, 2014) #UoNTeach
