How Will Access and Reliability of Information Communications Technology Resources Affect the Potential Implementation of the Australian Curriculum?
Murray, Gemma
Victorian Journal of Music Education, n1 p17-29 2014
The Australian Government has recently introduced a national based curriculum, known as The Australian Curriculum. This new curriculum is intended to provide quality education for all students (Australian Curriculum, Reporting and Assessment Authority, [ACARA], 2013). This article considers some of the possible implications of the Australian Curriculum, both generally and with a focus on music education. The empirical research on which this paper draws investigates music teachers' use of technology resources under the current curriculum (Australian Victorian Essential Learning Standards, [AusVELS]), and develops insights into how this use may change with the implementation of the Australian Curriculum.
