| Summary: | This paper explores the implications of the Australian Curriculum, suggesting the need for new conceptualisations of history teaching in teacher education. The development of the virtual history fieldtrip module in LAMS illustrates the possibilities of new learning designs, which are technology-mediated and underpinned by an educational psychology framework. The theoretical and practical links of the virtual history fieldtrip module to the goals of the new Australian curriculum are explored in detail. |
