With ACARA introducing History as a learning area, many schools are now looking for engaging and creative ways to support students to develop an understanding of events and people that are significant to Australia’s history. The My Place series is the perfect place to start. When used in collaboration with the My Place website and interactive media collection, the episodes in My Place become a rich stimulus for learning and reflecting on Australian History. The key themes of the first series explore how family, community, living and technology has changed over the past few centuries.
In this workshop, participants will be taken on a guided tour of My Place by the ACTF team. For more information about this event, visit the conference website.

So.. I saw this resource at last years Blast conference and thought I'd like to find out more. I didn't manage to find time to explore myself last year so joined this workshop this year. I'm so glad I did. There is so much depth in the resource and so much potential to be useful across the 4-7 yr levels. WOW!

I am currently at this workshop, and am finding it very informative. I had some prior knowledge about the book, series and website, but feel so much more informed now. I feel confident to take this back to my school and share it with collegues and students.

The conference workshop on My Place has been fantastic. It has opened many new learning opportunities to introduce into the classroom. The visual slides and access to created teaching activities to sit alongside the visual media will be a great benefit in our classroom.

I have used the My Place series and resources after being introduced to this fantastic series at last year's Blast! conference. This is fantastic resource for teachers. I can't wait for the second series to come out so I can continue my own "My Place" journey
