Applicable LearningAreas/Subjects: Humanities and Social Sciences
Unit Plan
Impacts of technology over timeIn this unit, students will explore the following inquiry question:
How have changes in technology shaped our daily life?
Learning opportunities support students to:
investigate continuity and change in technology used in the home, e.g. in toys or household products compare and contrast features of objects from the past and present sequence key developments in the use of a particular object in daily life over time pose questions about objects from the past and present describe ways technology has impacted on peoples' lives making them different from those of previous generations use information gathered for an investigation to develop a narrative about the past.
For further information to support teaching of the unit, view the:
Year level plan Teacher lesson overview
Throughout the unit, ensure all students have opportunities to develop their higher-order thinking skills. Students develop skills in thinking when they are encouraged to reflect, inquire, generate, and analyse, synthesise and evaluate. Resources that support higher-order thinking skills:

F-6/7 HASS- Year 2
Year 2 Achievement StandardBy the end of Year 2, students describe a person, site and/or event of significance in the local community and explain why places are important to people. They identify how and why the lives of people have changed over time while others have remained the same. They recognise that the world is divided into geographic divisions and that places can be described at different scales. Students describe how people in different places are connected to each other and identify factors that influence these connections. They recognise that places have different meaning for different people and why the significant features of places should be preserved.
Students pose questions about the past and familiar and unfamiliar objects and places. They locate information from observations and from sources provided. They compare objects from the past and present and interpret information and data to identify a point of view and draw simple conclusions. They sequence familiar objects and events in order and sort and record data in tables, plans and on labelled maps. They reflect on their learning to suggest ways to care for places and sites of significance. Students develop narratives about the past and communicate findings in a range of texts using language to describe direction, location and the passing of time.

Curriculum Priorities - Pedagogy
Considerations
Prior and future curriculumRelevant prior curriculumStudents require prior experience with the following in Year 1:
The way the world is represented in geographic divisions and the location of Australia in relation to these divisions (ACHASSK047) Collect data and information from observations and identify information and data from sources provided (ACHASSI035). Sort and record information and data, including location, in tables and on plans and labelled maps (ACHASSI036) Explore a point of view (ACHASSI038) Interpret data and information displayed in pictures and texts and on maps (ACHASSI040) Draw simple conclusions based on discussions, observations and information displayed in pictures and texts and on maps (ACHASSI041) Reflect on learning to propose how to care for places and sites that are important or significant (ACHASSI042) Present narratives, information and findings in oral, graphic and written forms using simple terms to denote the passing of time and to describe direction and location (ACHASSI043)
Curriculum working towards The teaching and learning in this unit work towards the following in Year 3: The location of Australia's neighbouring countries and the diverse characteristics of their places (ACHASSK067) Pose questions to investigate people, events, places and issues (ACHASSI052) Locate and collect information and data from different sources, including observations (ACHASSI053) Record, sort and represent data and the location of places and their characteristics in different formats, including simple graphs, tables and maps, using discipline-appropriate
conventions (ACHASSI054) Sequence information about people's lives and events (ACHASSI055) Examine information to identify different points of view and distinguish facts from opinions (ACHASSI056) Interpret data and information in different formats, to identify and describe distributions and simple patterns (ACHASSI057) Present ideas, findings and conclusions in texts and modes that incorporate digital and non-digital representations and discipline-specific terms (ACHASSI061)

Assessing student learningAssessment name: Assessment name: Impacts of technology over timeAssessment description: Students conduct an inquiry to answer the following inquiry question: How and why have changes in road transport affected the lives of people over time?In this unit, assessment of student learning aligns to the following aspects of the achievement standard.By the end of Year 2, students describe a person, site and/or event of significance in the local community and explain why places are important to people.They identify how and why the lives of people have changed over time while others have remained the same. They recognise that the world is divided into geographic divisions and that places can be described at different scales.Students describe how people in different places are connected to each other and identify factors that influence these connections. They recognise that places have different meaning for different people and why the significant features of places should be preserved.Students pose questions about the past and familiar and unfamiliar objects and places. They locate information from observations and from sources provided. They compare objects from the past and present and interpret information and data to identify a point of view and draw simple conclusions. They sequence familiar objects and events in order and sort and record data in tables, plans and on labelled maps. They reflect on their learning to suggest ways to care for places and sites of significance. Students develop narratives about the past and communicate findings in a range of texts using language to describe direction, location and the passing of time.Monitoring student learningStudent learning should be monitored throughout the teaching and learning process to determine student progress and learning needs.Each lesson provides opportunities to gather evidence about how students are progressing and what they need to learn next.
Feedback to studentsFeedback may relate to misunderstandings and common alternative conceptions. In this unit this may include:
Students may think that objects from the past may have changed completely over time. Explain to students that most items have elements that have remained the same, to maintain the integrity of items.
Students may conceive change as abrupt. Explain to students that change may happen gradually, as well as sometimes happening abruptly.
