Semester 1 2016

This semester the JPL provides teachers in public education with some concise advice about programming and assessment, a perspective on the minds and capacities of Kindergarten students, guides to the K-6 History and Science syllabuses, a major contribution to our understanding of teaching writing in the secondary years and a comprehensive work on teaching students with disability. The edition is rounded out with some considerations about what makes a good school whilst Steve Dinham provides us with a profound analysis of how the US and the UK are having deeply negative effects on Australian education.
