More-than-Human Wellbeing: Teaching Resources for Years 9-12. Australian Curriculum
Sydney: UNSW (2023), 54 pp.
"The More-than-Human Wellbeing Learning Activities and Resources aim to provide senior secondary school students with an understanding of digital technologies, data and their application in the context of health information in an era of emerging technologies. Based on the exhibition curated by Professor Deborah Lupton and complementing the showcased artworks and installations, these modules and materials can be used across different subjects in the senior secondary school curriculum. Ideal for formative student activities and discussion, they align with a broad range of subject areas including Biological Science, Digital Solutions and ICT, Philosophy and Reason, Environmental Science, Sociology, Visual Arts and Film, Television and New Media. Teachers may also wish to utilise the learning activities in school based personal development subjects or units. The modules and learning activities can also be used with students in Years 9–10. The learning activities included below align with subject learning areas from The Australian Curriculum (ACARA), and these are noted where applicable in each learning activity. Teachers may wish to adapt and extend at their discretion." (Introduction, page 4)
