| Summary |
Five case studies in which primary students research controversial topics in Australian history, and try to come to some new conclusions. The topics are: who really discovered Australia, what was life like for female convicts, was the Eureka rebellion inevitable, how do we view Aboriginal Australia, and was Ned Kelly a criminal or someone else's freedom fighter? |
