As a national organisation, the ACTF develops learning resources which align to the Australian Curriculum. Search ACTF Resources by age level, curriculum area and theme to find engaging Foundation – Year 10 lesson plans for English, Humanities and Social Sciences, Civics and Citizenship, History, Geography, Health and Physical Education, Science, Media Arts, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Histories and Cultures, Critical and Creative Thinking, Ethical Capability, Intercultural Capability, Personal and Social Capability, and more. Teachers will also find cross-curricular resources to draw on for student inquiries into communities, safety, teamwork, leadership, consent and respectful relationships, and more.
Through curated clips, discussion starters and learning tasks, these resources develop students’ understanding of text construction and themes, to support teachers in meeting curriculum requirements.
ACTF Learning delivers regular virtual learning events for students in partnership with ACMI Education, ABC Education and other respected media, cultural and educational organisations. These events provide access to industry professionals regardless of a school’s location, supporting students to learn through the media, about the media and to create their own media. Our virtual and in-person professional learning opportunities for teachers explore engaging ways to use Australian screen stories in the classroom.
