24 Intercultural Capability Personal and Social Capability Ethical Capability Critical & Creative Thinking Capability Independent Schools Victoria All rights reserved. July 2016 / 24
25 Addressing Essential Skills in Islamic Curriculum Literacy Success in any learning area depends on being able to use the significant, identifiable and distinctive literacy that is important for learning and representative of the content of that learning area. Numeracy a numerate population is critical in ensuring the nation s ongoing prosperity, productivity and workforce participation. ICT To participate in a knowledgebased economy and to be empowered within a technologically sophisticated society now and into the future, students need the knowledge, skills and confidence to make ICT work for them
26 MAKE COMPLIANCE YOUR BEST FRIEND 1. Australian Curriculum is well researched 2. There is no comparable curriculum developed by Muslims 3. Our children are entitled to the Australian Curriculum 4. Content is not dictated and it is not detailed as commonly assumed 5. Fundamental and or philosophical difference can be overcome 6. Activities valuing cultural heritage 7. Sharing the same curriculum creates a platform to work with each other in new ways
27 PROCESS THINKING & UNDERSTANDING Allow the General Capabilities to drive your curriculum in becoming an integrated and holistic curriculum. Develop and internalise an understanding of each of the learning areas by unpacking the :- Rationale Scope and Sequence and Achievement Standards Then Explore and select the Content Descriptors which will drive the curriculum s core skills and knowledge needed to master the areas of concepts and content. Independent Schools Victoria All rights reserved. July2017
28 4. Curriculum Challenges
29 CHALLENGES 1. Complex current narrative of terrorism 2. Recruitment of teachers 3. Resources 4. Student wellbeing Resilience 5. Pedagogical expertise 6. Ensuring a guaranteed and viable curriculum 7. Absence of an Australian Islamic curriculum
30 CRITICAL QUESTIONS FOR ISLAMIC SCHOOL LEADERSHIP 1. What do we expect our students to learn? 2. How will you know if each student has learned? 3. How will you respond when students do not learn? 4. How will you respond when students show proficiency? 5. Where are the connections?
31 SUMMARY Islamic schools are a strong feature of the Independent sector in Australia Islamic schools across Australia are very diverse Islamic schools are achieving great success in all Australian Curriculum capabilities and priorities at the grassroots There is a greater need to develop terms of references to the Australian Curriculum Greater need for Islamic schools to make clear connections between what is relevant in a Muslim student s world and the Islamic tradition whilst remaining accountable to the curriculum
