Support to ACARA
Education Services Australia (Melbourne office) has supported the Australian Curriculum, Assessment and Reporting Authority (ACARA) in the design and construction of:
- the website hosting the Draft Australian Curriculum
- the ACARA corporate website.
Draft Australian Curriculum consultation portal
The Draft Australian Curriculum website is a consultation website established to enable community feedback on the draft K-10 Australian Curriculum in English, history, mathematics and science. It provides answers to key questions including:
- Why have an Australian Curriculum?
- What does the draft K-10 Australian Curriculum look like?
- What makes the Australian Curriculum a world-class curriculum?
- What are the Australian Curriculum development timelines?
- How to provide feedback on the draft K-10 Australian Curriculum?
The web 2.0 site includes audio visual presentations and registration and consultation tools.
Corporate website
To assist ACARA in maximizing its ability to engage stakeholders in the consultative process of developing curricula across Australia, the corporate website was developed to incorporate consultation and feedback tools and to enable e-engagement functionality, including:
- User account registrations and access levels for staff, stakeholders and the public to enable consultation with ACARA;
- Report download and data analysis through the Sharepoint system;
- Board member Extranet site;
- Stakeholder databases with profile attributes to allow varied and in-depth analysis of feedback;
- Ability for stakeholders to upload submissions for review and publication by ACARA on the website;
- A feedback mechanism that allows stakeholders to provide both qualitative and quantitative data feedback about framing papers;
- Facilities for ACARA to convene a series of moderated forums for stakeholders to discuss national curriculum related topics and issues;
- Collaborative spaces for writers and curriculum advisors to co-create and review the scope and sequence of the Australian Curriculum including task management, chat, wiki's for brainstorming and content management, structured databases of content descriptions, elaborations and achievement standards and managed discussions for refining options and approaches in each learning area;
- Consulting and design advice for linking the Australian Curriculum to Existing digital resources; and,
- Preparation of controlled vocabularies and metadata schema's for making curriculum "machine readable" and compatible with International standards.
