Summary Fake News:<br />Critics say it changed the course of the American Election. Facebook says it is struggling to stop it. We're talking about fake news. And whether it's described as harmless fun or a serious problem, the one thing we can be sure of is that there is more of it around now than ever before. We take a look at what effect false headlines can have and how you can determine the truth.<br /><br />Mawson Anniversary:<br />One hundred and five years ago, Douglas Mawson set off on an expedition that would write his name in the history books and earn him a knighthood in the process. But what happened on this trek that would ensure his story lived on for more than a century? We go digging through the history books to find out.<br /><br />TEACHING RESOURCES INCLUDED:<br />Learning Areas -<br />Science / Science as a Human Endeavour / Use and influence of science:<br />Scientific knowledge is used to solve problems and inform personal and community decisions Years 5 & 6<br /><br />Science / Science as a Human Endeavour / Nature and development of science:<br />Science involves testing predictions by gathering data and using evidence to develop explanations of events and phenomena and reflects historical and cultural contributions Years 5 & 6<br /><br />HASS / Inquiry and skills / Questioning:<br />Pose questions to investigate people, events, places and issues Year 4<br /><br />Develop appropriate questions to guide an inquiry about people, events, developments, places, systems and challenges Years 5 & 6<br /><br />HASS / Inquiry and skills / Researching:<br />Sequence information about people's lives and events Year 4<br /><br />Locate and collect relevant information and data from primary sources and secondary sources Years 5 & 6<br /><br />History / Knowledge and Understanding:<br />The contribution of individuals and groups to the development of Australian society since Federation Year 6<br /><br />Two part BtN Special feature - International Disability Day<br /><br />Part 1 - Living in Silence:<br />In the first part of our special Disability Day feature, we're going to give you an insight into what a normal school day is like for a kid who is deaf.
