Firstly, I would like to thank the NSW Board of Studies for allowing me to present my point of view. I believe that what I have to say, and what I have to show you, will alter your perspective in terms of teaching the HSC Syllabus. My examples are derived from the Area of Study titled Changing Perspective. In society, it is known that Visual Stimuli is an integral part of everyday life. Television, Computer games, Movies… Visual stimuli. Everything on television, from High Five to The Simpsons, attracts a young audience with the desire to teaching them something. Visual stimuli keeps a young person entertained and captivated, allowing them to learn from what they see. I, therefore, advise that The HSC syllabus be taught keeping in mind the fact that Visual stimuli is apart of everyday life and that young people respond well to it. Some teaching methods that can be used in teaching the HSC Syllabus in this manner are: the Internet, and the Overhead projector. (HAND OUT hand it out) The internet is possible the worlds fastest growing resource, providing tens of thousands of individuals and companies with information.
