Justification
The online study site and the lesson plans have been designed to encourage the independent
analysis of Popular culture phenomenon as part of the HSC Society and Culture course. The main
pedagogy to the development of this assignment is self directed learning, this strategy intends to
develop students skills of critical analysis and cultural literacy. To accommodate for a wide range of
potential learning needs a universal design for learning (UDL) framework has been used in
organising the lessons in order to provide opportunities for differentiated learning.

The central learning theory of self-directed learning is intended for students in the later years of
high school as it appeals to students capable of independent goals and management of work
(Marsh, Clarke & Pittaway 2012). Self-directed learning focuses on student agency as key to
learning, by directing the activities to their own interests students will consider the work
meaningful. This is intended to move the function of the learner away from compliance and
towards active and engaged participants (Zmuda & Jackson, 2015).
The theory behind self-directed learning indicates that there are three stages of development that
students may be functioning on these include: guided study, cooperative study and independent
study. Students at the guided stage will need considerable assistance, cooperative students will
need sporadic help and independent learners in this theory will need minimal support. In the
designed activities much of the work will be suited to cooperative self directed study (Marsh, Clarke
& Pittaway, 2012).
The UDL framework is a method of differentiation which aims to create equitable classrooms for the
majority of learners. Although there are learning difficulties that may need considerable additional
support, a universally designed classroom is intended to create activities which provide students
with options to work with their needs without requiring separate support from other students
(Brand & Dalton, 2012).

The online study component deconstructs the some of the key syllabus points into interactive
modules for the students to complete outside of the classroom. The four online lessons focus on the
four distinguishing characteristics of a popular culture as a means of providing valuable background
knowledge for the remainder of the unit (NESA, 2015). Due to the size of Marvel comics as a
popular culture, students are provided with a variety of mediums and products to investigate in the
2
Nathan Currao 177 394 76
pop culture study. The activities within the four online lessons provide the students flexibility in
their responses, often the responses can be informed by personal experience. Each activity has a
number of different sources of information available to the participant, this provides support for
students on a guided or cooperative level of study. To maintain learning is equitable the key
instructions of the activities are underlined, this is done as a form of explicit instruction in absence
of a teacher (Brand & Dalton, 2012).

The first lesson is an introduction to the online study site and the overall unit of Marvel Comics as a
popular culture. To be conducted before the students access the online module, this lesson
introduces the concept of a popular culture as part of a sequence of learning which scaffolds
towards a complex understanding of pop culture in the later lessons. The teacher is heavily involved
in the direction of this lesson, this is done to begin the learning with everyone at the guided stage of
self-directed learning from this lesson the students will have chances to demonstrate how they
develop their skills in individual agency (Marsh, Clarke, Pittaway 2012). Along with building cultural
analysis this lesson introduces some key aspects of cultural literacy in the lesson with the
discussions regarding the meanings of Popular Culture and High or Low Culture, the ability to define
how common entertainment can be divided by class is an important learning not only for the unit
but beyond school (Mulcahy,2007). To make the activity in the lesson accessible for a range of
learning needs the students have been provided with worksheets with clear definition and
instructions, explicit direction along with the chances for students to use their verbal skills provides
opportunities for students to engage without a heavy focus on reading and writing (Brand & Dalton,
2012).

The second lesson will use past HSC paper exam questions as the main activity. This is done to
introduce the students to the quality of work expected when they reach the HSC exams, the
questions selected for the activity have been organised to continue the learning of the online
resource and the overall study of critical analysis though self-directed learning (Zmuda & Jackson,
2015). The completion of the activity is done as a summary with a fair portion of time dedicated to
the end of the lesson so that the students can get immediate feedback, the quality of their essay
scaffold will indicate how well the students can select and deconstruct an element of the popular
culture of their own choosing as well as their extended response skills.

Using the feedback from the completion of the online lessons to indicate areas which need to be
developed, the third lesson has been designed to develop the skill of critical thinking. The ability to
critically considered the intentions and meaning behind aspects of popular culture will be useful for
3
Nathan Currao 177 394 76
their HSC studies as well as their daily life (Terry, 2012). This ICT based lesson reengages with the
students abilities of self-directed learning, the lesson progresses from the first of the assignment
and targets development towards the cooperative stage of self-directed study (Marsh,Clarke &
Pittaway, 2012). This can be identified in the key activity of the class which asks students to think
critically regarding how social change is enacted through one marvel comics character of their
choosing, to support the cooperative or lower level students the class will do this task in groups and
will be supported by a critical thinking template. To keep this classroom accessible for a range of
needs the activity has been designed to provide multiple points of access in options for the
presentation in class (Brand & Dalton, 2012), in selecting the subject of their research and means of
giving a short presentation to the class students are able to interact with the activity in ways that
suit their learning needs.

Reflection

What have I learned about the teaching and learning process when preparing this lesson?

How useful it is to allow students guide the lesson with their personal experiences. The popular
culture of Marvel Comic is one that most of the students will be familiar with so it is best for class
engagement if the students are allowed to analyse their own interactions with the contemporary
culture.
