    *Dear Colleagues,

    Starting in September, ANSN and Hawker Brownlow Education will
    present a three-day Curriculum Design Research Circle, in Melbourne.
    It will take place on 1 and 2 September and 10 November, led by
    Gavin Grift, National Co-ordinator of the ANSN Curriculum Design
    Hub, and Director of the Association of Innovation in Education.

    This research circle has been designed specifically to support
    teachers to develop deeper levels of understanding about how
    curriculum design can be utilised to strengthen teaching and
    learning. Gavin will outline a six-part process that involves the
    whole-school context, the teacher and student lifeworlds, and the
    wider community. He will draw upon the work of the 2007 ANSN
    Curriculum Planning Action Research Hub and the Connecting Lives and
    Learning Project (being undertaken by ANSN with the University of
    South Australia).

        2007 Participants Said

    What have I come to understand over the past two days?

    “I realised I’d lost sight of what was important.”
    “A deeper knowledge of planning.”
    “I have come to understand the need to turn our kids into lifelong
    learners - learning for life, not just memorisers.”
    “I have a much better idea of the curriculum planning process and
    how to make it meaningful and relevant for my students.”
    “I understand the full scope of planning an engaging, effective,
    successful unit for students.”
