Explaining the Curriculum links
Links from the NSW Syllabus, Australian Curriculum, Queensland Curriculum have been provided due to the author's current and past locations.
While each state has their own curriculum, they are all derived from the Australian Curriculum.
The links below connect both the digital technologies and design and technologies resources to these curriculums.
Design and Technologies resource links are sub-titled and highlighted in blue while Digital Technologies resource links are sub-titled and highlighted in purple.
To enhance learning, the resources are also explicitly linked to General Capabilities and Cross-Curriculum Priorities.

By the end of Year 5: Information, materials and systems (resources) The characteristics of resources are matched with tools and techniques to make products to meet design challenges.
Technology as a human endeavour Technology influences and impacts on people, their communities and environments. |
By the end of Year 5: Students use the essential processes of Ways of Working to develop and demonstrate their Knowledge and understanding. They develop their ability to work technologically by generating, assessing and communicating design ideas and by selecting, manipulating and processing resources, to individually and collaboratively design and make products. They analyse how technology and its products and processes impact on people, their environments and local communities. They reflect on their learning and evaluate products and processes.
