As part of this workshop\, teachers will have an opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of some of the ways these elaborations can be integrated into the Science curriculum. There are 49 new elaborations for Years 7-10 making a total of 53 in the refined Science curriculum. We will focus in depth on a small number so that there are opportunities to consider how the concepts behind these Science activities can be integrated into learning designs.\n“The elaborations acknowledge that Aboriginal Peoples and Torres Strait Islander Peoples have worked scientifically for millennia and continue to contribute to contemporary science. They are scientifically rigorous\, demonstrating how Indigenous history\, culture\, knowledge and understanding can be incorporated into teaching core scientific concepts”. (ACARA 2018)\nThe refined Science curriculum now has 108 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander elaborations\, an increase of 95. These elaborations demonstrate the connection between the core Science concepts and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander histories and cultures. The elaborations are spread over the three interrelated fields of the Science curriculum: Science Understanding\, Science as a Human Endeavour and Science Inquiry Skills.\n\n \;\n\nTarget audience: Directors of Learning\, Science Teachers Years 7 to 10\n\nDelivery mode: Face to face\n\nPresenters:\nUncle Tamaru Smith\nSonya Arnold\, Seymour College\nNahla Baroudi\, Westminster School\nToni Maddock\, Southern Montessori School\nJames Mingorance\, Southern Montessori School\nMonica Williams\, AISSA\n\n \;\n\nIMPORTANT NOTICE: \n\nDue to current COVID-19 restrictions the AISSA is required to enforce set limits on the number of attendees for this event based on social distancing and maximum density rules.  To secure your place please complete the registration as attendance at the AISSA office without a confirmed place may result in being turned away if the event is at capacity.\n\nThere is no on-site parking available.  For parking options please refer to the parking map.  Tram stop #1 Greenhill Road is a 6-minute walk away.\n\n \;\n\nFor registration enquiries please contact Rae Dawkins.
