Description

Investigates schools as an important part of society in terms of how they interact with and respond to cultural, political, economic and other factors in society. Introduces students to relationships between education and Australian society by focusing on the nature and purpose of education in Australian society, winners and losers in education and the current directions in education. Students investigate the above through a small collaborative research project.
