Sociology support resources

The Sociology support resources have been commissioned by the Victorian Curriculum Assessment Authority (VCAA) and developed in collaboration with Social Education Victoria (SEV) and practising teachers to support teaching and learning of VCE Sociology Units 3-4.

The resources focus on two areas of the study:

Unit 3: Area of Study 1, Community and Society

Unit 4: Area of Study 1, Citizenship

The organisation of the material is according to key knowledge in the Sociology study design. The resources contain contextual information about the areas of study, suggested teaching and learning activities and possible school assessed coursework (SAC) tasks. The case studies and student activities provide examples of how experienced sociology teachers have approached the teaching of the study design. The resources may be adapted and updated by teachers for use in their own classes.
