Aim
An opportunity to develop a purposeful, field-based learning experience that responds to a senior syllabus focus, assessment context or authentic environmental investigation.
Big idea
Real places provide opportunities to investigate complex environmental questions, apply disciplinary knowledge and generate evidence.
Program details
Availability: By negotiation. A minimum of 2 terms’ notice is required from initial request acceptance to program delivery.
Supervision: Visiting teacher and support staff
Curriculum connections
Negotiated programs are developed in response to identified QCAA senior syllabus requirements. Programs can support subject-specific knowledge, skills and assessment preparation while maintaining a strong connection to place and authentic environmental contexts.
Student experiences
Depending on the negotiated focus, students may investigate, collect and analyse field data, apply disciplinary knowledge, evaluate evidence, solve problems, communicate findings and reflect on environmental issues and decisions.
What makes it negotiated?
Programs are developed collaboratively where an identified senior secondary learning opportunity aligns with Amaroo EEC’s expertise, educational priorities and capacity, and has potential to strengthen our broader program offering.
Important
Negotiated programs are not commissioned one-off programs. We prioritise ideas that are innovative, educationally purposeful and potentially transferable to other students and schools.
