Themes

Making History is structured around four themes that relate to historical inquiry. Your digital history will need to be about one of them.

Living with Natural Disasters Has your local community experienced a natural disaster? What happened? How has it been remembered? World Events, Local Impacts What world events are part of your community’s past? How have these events been remembered? Cultural Identity Our heritage as individuals and as a nation has an impact on our cultural identity. Where do you come from? What connections to place and people, stories of cultural identity and/or migration can you find in your community? Family and Community Life Do you know your family or community's story? Who can you talk to? What can you look at? What questions do you ask?
