What, Why and How
Why?
What?
Creating learning experiences that build on learner strengths and needs, create new knowledge and develop skills using real-life problem solving and help all students identify their talents, purpose and passion.
- To engage students
- It connects learning with the world
- It values the whole student, not just content
- It allows for common language and pedagogy within the school
- Jobs of the future (21st century skills)
- School-wide framework
- New tools to assess practice (clusters)
- The building and sharing of models and pedagogical practice
What & Why
Aim
How?
Providing a range of engaging and challenging learning experiences which allow students to immerse themselves in ideas, concepts or issues, whilst connecting to the world around them.
"We want young people to leave our schools knowing who they are, where they fit in the world and how can give back." - Joanne Quinn
The Umbrella
All Encompassing
It's Not
What Deep Learning is Not!
- Unstructured teaching and learning
- Lack of planning
- Abandonment of explicit teaching
- Disregard for the curriculum
- It's NOT theme-based learning
Leading with the C's
It's not JUST about the content

Why now?
How is this different? Surely we have always wanted to create engaging, challenging and genuine learning experiences, so what's the need for the sudden change?
Why
Societal Changes
The future, and present, offer up a number of challenges for students, families and educators which we need to acknowledge and address. The best avenue through which we can impact this change is through education.
Societal Changes
Tuning Out
- 40% of students disengaged with their learning (Grattan Institute, 2017)
- SCHOOLS need to be more engaging and relevant than the tech and the drug dealers
Engagement
Technological Impacts
Technology
- recent studies (Australian Institute of Family Studies, 2016) show children aged 12-13 are staring at screens for at least 3 hours a day (4 hours on weekends)
- high use of technology linked with a range of mental health issues including; ADHD, anxiety, behaviour and self regulation issues (Duke University, 2019; OECD, 2018)
Modern Families
Complexities of and modern day pressures on Australian families have never been greater:
- Families in which both parents work has increased from 53% in 1996 to 61% in 2016
- Corresponding decrease in the percentage of stay-at-home mums
- Single parent families expected to rise by 70% in next 20 years (Daily Telegraph, 2018)
Family Dynamics

Dietary and Exercise Shift
- children receive 41% of their total energy intake from food which is considered to be 'junk'
- less than 7% of us meet our daily vegetable intake requirements (Australian Beurieu of Statistics and Mintel, 2017)
- 80% of children aged 5-17 do not meet physical activity guidelines (Australian Institute of Health and Welfare, 2018)

What's Involved
Varried Engagement
- posing problems/questions
- allowing students to lead the learning
- full topic immersion (English/Math/Science/Technology etc.)
- excursions/incursions
- guest speakers
- planning, creating and adapting
