Year 9 – Civics: Using Surveys to Connect Students to Real World Political Issues

Brad TyrrellJune 28, 2021August 31, 2021
Students work in teams to research factors which influence voter behaviour. Traditionally students would investigate political issues through a text book. This Civics programme made use of technology to allow students to connect with political issues through news and social media websites as well as political surveys created by students for their parents. Students were able to connect the theory in the classroom to the real world issues faced by their families and society. This resulted in significant improvement in students engagement and understanding.

Olivia has found ways to connect with families through the use of QR Codes to view specific work that celebrates individual learning.
