The second edition of Cambridge Humanities and Social Sciences for Queensland supports teachers in delivering engaging content for the new Australian Curriculum v9.0. The shaping of the modern world and challenges faced by humanity today are explored through an extensive range of sources and activity-types, and local Queensland content.
This edition includes complete and up-to-date coverage of current local and international topics. The Interactive resources feature new video content covering skills and opportunities for historical source analysis. Written by a team of experienced authors, extensive teacher support is provided particularly in areas often taught by non-specialist teachers. There is also support for integrating Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander knowledge, histories and perspectives with all content reviewed by First Nations Academic Alison Quin. The strong focus on an inquiry-based framework ensures students are prepared for success in their QCE studies and beyond.
- The Test Generator allows teachers to quickly create customised tests from a bank of questions. Teachers can also share their customised tests with others in the school, building a whole school assessment bank. All tests can be printed or assigned online for auto-marking, and are suitable for assessment, homework tasks, and practice quizzes.
- The Task Manager can be used to direct students on a custom activity sequence based on their scores in measurable tasks such as quizzes or custom tests.
- The Online Teaching Suite records results on quizzes, self-assessment scores and red flags raised by students in all sections, and end-of-chapter review questions. Reports on individual and class progress are available for download. Data from student Interactive Textbooks will directly feed to the Online Teaching Suite.
- Access to student Workspaces allows teachers to easily monitor work and provides students with the opportunity to alert teachers to problems with specific questions online.
- Downloadable worksheets for developing both understanding and skills can be used for homework or completed offline in class. Teachers also have access to the answers to the worksheet questions.
- A range of downloadable and editable documents includes teaching programs, scope and sequence documents, curriculum grids, marking rubrics, Australian Curriculum General Capabilities Projects and suggested responses to all activities.
